[RESOLVED] Zoom plugin doesn't work

When I try to open the Miro plugin from inside Zoom, I get the attached message. Also, neither of the links in that window work. In short, nothing works, not even the links.Now what?

Can I restore deleted content if convert to paid account?

If I convert an account to the Teams paid tier, would I be able to restore a board to a previous state before the conversion? The option to restore does not seem to be available to the Free accounts. Thanks! -Matt

Miro & Zoom Integration coming soon?

I heard during a training session recently that a Miro and Zoom integration is coming.  How can we get more information?  I am prepping for a workshop and plan to use both Miro and Zoom.   ​​​​​Do we have a timeline? What is the initial integration use case?   If it fits into my timeline, I would like to know if the use case(s) being worked on align with my needs or not.  I will be doing a workshop with 12 people and using Breakout rooms from Zoom to collaborate on different areas of the board.   Please let me know.  Thank you.

What is the difference between an "integration" and an "app"?

I see that in my preferences I have a list of “integrations” I can turn on (eg Facebook, OneDrive, Dropbox). There is no explanation of what such integrations do. Yet there are also “apps”, many of which have the same name and (perhaps) the same functionality.I’m specifically interested in being able to embed videos from OneDrive into my Miro boards. Does that mean I need to use an “integration” or an “app”? This page seems to talk about an integration as an app, so I’m confused:https://help.miro.com/hc/en-us/articles/360017731273-OneDriveMeanwhile, I can’t install the app, since I’m not an admin, but I can turn on the integration. But I can’t tell what it does.

Burndownchart

Hi! May I ask you to help me understand how to use a burndown chart? I don't understand how to set it up to work. Maybe someone has a video guide or something else.

Text on Sticky notes not showing on Export

When I am trying to export a frame as a vector pdf, the text on the majority of the Sticky Notes on the board disappears and does not show on the pdf. Does anybody know why this is happening and how I can get around this? Thank you.

Tool or Technique - which comes first?

Hi there,I’m getting more familiar with Miro, but I’m not a ‘power user’. I’m also learning and applying the ‘working backwards’ ideation and problem-solving methodology, which is powerful when applied judiciously. My question is, given what you know and what we are all experiencing (remote working, etc.) would you prioritize mastering an online workshop via Miro (the tool)? Or, would you recommend concentrating on the methodology (and related artifacts and deliverables)? Maybe part of the solution is having multiple people involved (facilitator and documenter)? Thanks for your perspective!Tim

Newbie question around objects/shapes

I apologize for such a newbie question but I searched everywhere I promise.  Is it possible to have a shape, with two colors(sections)?  I know I could create two squares and lay one on top of another, and color one differently, but I’m trying to create a rounded rectangle. Best example I could find is attached.  I can’t seem to figure out how to make a separate area at the bottom of this object its own color, have the corners aligned, etc.

Can't resize table column on certain columns

I’ve used the prefilled Technology Roadmap template.I have a table that is set to “cell resize = manual”. I can select columns separately and edit the width of almost all columns, but for whatever reason for some columns the resizing does not work.Anyone any suggestions on how I might fix this or what is causing this?In the image below: it’s the one highlighted in blue that doesn’t work. I can change the columns left of it. On the right of it, I can only change the width on the righthand side.

Seamlessly Adding Rows/Columns to Program Board Frame/Template

Calling all brilliant people!! Needing help please!! :)Why can’t you just add columns and rows to a program board like you can with a generic excel table? Is there a way to do this? I hate having to go and hand-select hundreds of boxes to copy and paste when I wish I could select “add row” or “add column” or even just lasso everything at once, duplicate and be done. BUT, if I lasso something (like the proud Texan I am), it only grabs two out of DOZENS of elements in the lasso so I have to click individually every item inside the target area…. sigh. This is the ONLY thing I don’t like about Miro. Doing this is NOT an intuitive workflow and I’m wondering if anyone else has had this issue or found a workaround?Thanks!!

Categorise Custom Board Templates

Hi We are wanting to be able to tag/categorise the custom board templates we create. Our reason why is we want people to be able to see boards that relate to one another. EG Discovery Related boards vs Ideation Boards. Our terrible hack at the moment is long description names eg Discovery - Empathy Safari. But there has to be a better way :)Also can you sequence the order the templates display? Again our hack is to use numbering 1. Discovery - Empathy Safari.Many thanks

Customize Hotkeys

I would love to be able to customize hotkeys for certain kinds of inputs. Specifically, my need is that I have set up a certain structure of sticky notes which I always use in the same hierarchy. I would love to be able to just press N+Alt+1 to get my customized sticky of my customized size etc. Maybe even having this as a feature to select in the settings optionally for heavy userswould be great.

Object suggestions after arrows

Hi, I am a new user of miro and I think I turned off a nice feature. I am doing process flow diagrams and, in the beginning, the miro was automatically suggesting a list of shapes for me to add in the end of an arrow.Unfortunately I turned this option off and I don’t know how to turn it back on. Any tips? Thank you
