How much Data can a Miro Board handle?

Dear all, I am trying to figure out how much data a Miro Board can handle? We are organizing a virtual event for a client with 250-300 participants which includes creating a virtual group picture out of uploaded selfies on a Miro-Board.Therefore we would like to ensure a smooth functionality and are wondering if we have to identify a data limit for the pictures themselves.Can anyone help?  Cheers from Germany,Lina

Can I select-all (or maybe just lock-all)

Hi there! I find myself zooming out (carefully trying not move things around while doing it), selecting all the items in a board and then locking them very often. It’d be nice to have a shortcut for this action. If not I guess I’ll try to develop a web-plugin that does it (it shouldn’t be very hard).   Thanks, Alan

Is it possible to use window.location.pathname to get Miro board path while using REST API?

Hi,I’m using Miro REST API in the form of a sidebar, I’m trying to export data to a external database and would like to mark each dataset with its corresponding miro board ID from the board url like this one for example: https://miro. com/app/board/hereistheboardid/I’m trying to do this by calling window.location.pathname.split('/') from which I then obtain an array of paths in the link. Unfortunately the paths that I get returned back are ones from my server where I keep the code to my miro REST API  Outlined in blue is my sidebar, from which the url path gets returned, but in the red there is underlined the actual window url / location which I believe it should return. Any ideas how to get the miro board URL via my REST API / webplugin?

User Story Map: How to add stakeholders/personas?

I’m test-driving Miro to keep my project team aligned on the scope and release planning. The user story mapping looks great for that purpose.However I’d like to add stakeholders/personas to the map. Some of these activities are requested by all stakeholder groups, some are exclusive to singular stakeholders. I remember that in Storiesonboard you had personas as icons above the activities.Is there anything similar in Miro or would I have to draw something up?BestMichael

Cannot change user access from VIEW to EDIT

I cannot give EDIT access to some of my users. I sent each an invite to EDIT. But when their names appear in the SHARING list, some are EDIT and some are VIEW. I change the VIEW to EDIT, and it changes back to VIEW. Any ideas anyone?Thanks,Kevan

Follow your own iPad from your laptop

I’m using Miro in Remote Workshops in my browser and share my screen via Zoom to participants. Now, for some parts of the workshop I have the Miro app on my iPad to make drawings. And as my laptop screen with MIro open is shared, I would like to be able to follow my actions on the iPad within Miro with the attention management feature.BUT: As I’m logged in with the same user on my laptop and iPad, I’m not able to follow myself. Is there a work-around for this?

Improve Performance

Hi Miro Community My customer is complaining about board speed. The workshop is finished and now individuals are dipping into the board and discussing via sticky notes.In the ‘Tips to improve board performance’ refers to ‘Heavy Documents’ … What is that? I’ve uploaded, and unpacked 10 PowerPoint presentations, used photographs, shapes and stickies and 10 frames. Would it be better if I used jpgs of the PowerPoint Slides instead of the original ppt? Looking forward to hearing your wisdom. Tom

How do I do a new line using pen in Miro on iPad?

I like using my pen in Miro on my iPad so I can write text freehand and have it covert to printed text to ensure readability.  What I haven’t been able to figure out is how to go to a new line while writing with the pen.  Right now, I have to pull up the keyboard and hit return to do that.  Is there a way to make the pen do that for me?

Running first Ice Breaker Session!

Hi - I’m running my first Miro ice-breaker with my leadership team of 32 people. My thought is to use our usual meeting platform, Zoom, and then share my Miro screen while asking everyone ahead of time to be logged in their Miro account. Then those who haven’t created their Miro account yet can see the others participating and will see how they too can use Miro for their teams. I don’t quite get yet how to ouse the Miro video/chat with over 30 people (of which so far about 20 have created their Miro accounts) since I would have to go to Zoom eventually to continue with our regular meeting. In your opinion, will my Zoom + Miro plan work? With thanks in advance for your input!

Plugin widgets.get() by id doesn't seem to work

Hi, I am trying to get widgets by id using the await miro.board.widgets.get({ id }) but it doesn’t appear to work? I have tried single ids, array of ids, both with strings and integers and nothing comes back? Is that expected behaviour? This is within the onReady callback; Thanks, Craig

Can you use the Sketch plugin as a Guest Editor?

Hi everyone, I’ve installed the Sketch plugin for Miro, but can’t find the board I need in the list of options. Is this because I’m a Guest Editor on the board, not ‘Team’? Is it possible to use the Sketch plugin as a Guest Editor? And if not, are there any work arounds? Thank you!

Sharing settings → Permissions tab

I unexpectedly came across a Permissions tab/set of options in a board’s Share → Sharing settings back on September 30th while I was answering some a question on the forum. It caught my attention at the time as I didn’t recall ever seeing this option. I was focused on something else at the time so I grabbed a few screenshots and moved on.Now, when I decide to go back and dig into it further, I cannot find the options again! Mind you, I didn’t capture the exact conditions leading up to the option appearing, but here’s what I know:The board belonged to my spouse’s Education Plan (the setting may have been present in my Consultant Plan, however, I am the only member, so I can’t add an editor at the board-level without incurring a charge). My spouse was the board owner. The board’s Share settings: Team access & Anyone with the link were both set to → No access. Board-level sharing was to me as View only. The board was not in any projects.So what option am I talking about anyway?!My s

Has anyone figured out a way to get date notifications?

I did a quick search and did not find anything in the community about this…Does the calendar function with cards have any kind of notification built in? For example, if I set a future date on a card, will it alert me when that date arrives? My suspicion is that the answer, at least for now, is no… If it does not work that way, has anyone figured out a way to get date alerts in Miro, maybe via some third-party app integration?Thanks!

Can you link grids so they dynamically update?

Is there anyway to make rows on two grids linked so that they dynamically update stickies and text from a different grids in a board?Our team is working on a strategic board that has a grid where each row is a different business vertical and columns are time. We also have sub-grids for each vertical that have the same time interval columns, but with different rows (main grid=KPI’s, sub-grids=resources needed to get there). For example, B2B is a row in the main grid, and we have a B2B sub-grid. Within the B2B sub-grid we want a row that pulls directly from the main grid and includes the high-level KPI’s over time (a simple =Xcell in Excel). Is it possible to do this in Miro? Thanks

Consultant Plan - team limit

Hi Miro-ers,I’m on a consultant plan and seem to have hit my limit in the number of teams I can create when trying to create a 10th team. Given we work with lots of different clients, and we generally create a Team for each to avoid privacy conflicts, this is a bit of a problem. Has anyone else encountered this arbitrary limit? I’m being asked for payment details as soon as I try to create a 10th team, even though we’re on a 15 seat/month consultant plan.Here’s a screen grab:Any ideas?

Is there a way to set animated GIFs to autoplay?

Animated GIFs seem to play only after users click to play after entering a Miro board, but I am wondering if it is possible to adjust a setting somewhere so animated GIFs on a board are toggled to autoplay all the time … so all users see the animated GIF whenever they login and enter the board. Thanks for your help!

Use my paid account to work on another client's Miro board

I have my own personal miro account, one of my clients also bought a corporate miro subscription after I spoke to him very well about miro. Now, I would like to know if I can join my client's aiming board with my personal aiming account and cooperate with him. Or if my client has to buy a new license made especially for me in order to work on his boards.
