Can unknown users join our team without our permission?

Hi All! I am really happy to use miro, it is a piece of a nice digital product. Unfortunately, my team came across a surprising event. We were using the free plan for testing and we added to the team a few members. One month later 20 unknown users appeared in our team. Is this a bug or in the free plan miro community gains access to our content and can join our team without our permission?

[RESOLVED] Screen Sharing and Video Chat are not working

Hello! I am preparing a workshop to be conducted by Miro. One of the essential features for conducting it will be Screen Sharing feature, where participants can follow my screen. I've used it several times and it worked perfectly, but today when I clicked my entire screen was frozen and I had to reload the board. I cannot use the function, nor does the Start button appear on the screen. Is this problem happening to anyone else? Is there any solution? Other people on my team tested and had the same problem. Thank you!

The number of boards Miro says a user has access to seems irrelevant.

When I go into active users it will say someone has access to one board yet they can access any of them. It says I have access to 11 but I can also access any of them. How do I fix this? If we have consultants that should only have access to one board this is a huge security flaw.

Do anonymous board editors, external board editors, and external board viewers and commenters require licenses?

Hi, can someone please give more information on anonymous board editors, external board editors, and external board viewers and commenters? Do any of these roles require licenses? And what is the difference between them?  We are thinking of licensing Miro, but need to understand how this works to know how many licenses we would need to buy.

Lost all comments when copy-pasting image with comments to another board - restore?

Can I restore the image in the initial board without having a backup, ie: restore to "2 hrs ago"? It's more than a few clicks ago so I cannot use the "back” arrow and I don't have a board backup,  thanks!

Instructions to users

guys, on a recent demo vid there were some really nice instructions integrated into the board explaining functionality i.e. copy/paste / how to write comments etc. Is this available anywhere?

Team members unable to authenticate

currently working on a toy project for rolling dice. it needs read/write on a board.  https://github.com/megonemad1/MiroDicePostIt I’ve tried a bunch of different things. but i keep getting either “A client must have at least one registered redirect URL” or “A redirect_uri must be supplied.”   I’ve tried a bunch of different things any ideas? I’m aware: 'https://' + window.location.host + '/success.html' results to the wrong thing for github pages. fixing that doesn't fix the problem

Dimensions of a board

I struggle with the dimensions of the templates and frames on my Miro-Board. My case is:  I have a Miro Board with different activities, for each activity I made a frame of template.  All the frames together, are the flow of the workshop.  But how do I know how big the frames must be? When is it big enough for the participants to have a good overview, to read the text in the frames when they zoom in? And how are my letters?  What is a good size of the frame to get a good structure of your board? Or, is anybody willing to share his or her template? So that I have an example?  Thanks a lot,  Mireille

Stacking Custom Cards

I have a requirement and trying to find if this is possible or not. I have custom designed cards. while providing training i want those cards to be available to my clients as a stack, so that during a collaboration session anyone can use them multiple times. Just like the Stack of Sticky notes i want my custom cards to be available as a stack. Is there a possiblity of doing so.

Combine User Story Maps into one?

We created several user story maps for different parts of the process to ease facilitation. Now we’re reviewing those maps and want to combine all three into one and clean up overlap.  Is there a way to connect the end of one map’s backbone to the start of the next map’s backbone?

Is it possible to take a group of stickies and connect them so they move like a mind map?

I have created a group of stickies from client discussions and as I link them together I realize that it would be helpful to connect them into a mind map. Is it possible to easily perform this task? I’ve connected them but when I move them around the connected cards do not move and flow like a mind map which would be helpful.   Thanks, Glenn

Has anyone successfully integrated Excel into Miro?

Our company is looking to populate Salesforce information into MIRO via Microsoft Excel for project management. Ideally, we’d like to be pulling data sets and converting them into MIRO Cards for Kanban use. From there we’d like to track and report said cards Kanban position back to Salesforce via excel. At least until there is a more comprehensive Salesforce integration.    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Control of number of boards

Hi, I established already in the forum that I as team admin/owner can’t delete a board which is not owned by me. So the question is now, can I force the ownership of a board to me? Or can I at least going forward restrict who can create boards? I want the users still have the opportunity to edit boards and within the boards, but I do not want them to be able to create them without my approval. Looking forward to hopefully a positive answer. Thanks  Mathias

Miro board link shared through the new public access feature and by using the Zoom chat feature did not appear as an actionable link

Miro and Zoom : sharing Miro board through new public access feature  I am running a consultant plan since a couple of weeks.  I had several times the same problem: a Miro board link shared through the new public access feature and by using the Zoom chat feature did not appear as an actionable link at my meeting participants. Sometimes sending through e-mail or through Slack worked. 70% of the time I had failures. I set the “can edit” option in the public access to board link. Is this a known error?  Very annoying when you work with a client. Thanks for any advice, hints, work arounds, etc.

Which plan to choose

I have a corporate customer and I want to run my presentation skills online-course for this company on Miro board. There will be 41 participants. And this online course will last for 4 weeks. Each participant will have his/her learning trajectory. The new task will appear on board every other day and participants will do their homework in the corresponding frames before the next task appears. Along with the participants there will be 4 of my assistants. Their job will be to help the participants when needed and give them feedback on their work. May be if it works well I will run more courses like this for groups from 5 to 50 people. What plan should I choose? Is “Consultant” a good option for this case?

Public sharing via link not working

I want to allow people with link to edit a board (together). I’ve just signed up for the consultant plan. I follow the instructions, click on “share” at the top right corner of the board, and only get the option to invite to the team by email. How do I activate the option to share a link?   Thanks!

Text blur option for Retro board

I’m setting up the Retro board. Instead of writing notes at the meeting (what worked well, not worked well questions), I’d like the member to fill the note before the meeting without others to read it. Fun Retro app had a text blur setting until the facilitator to reveal it. I was wondering if there is any solution for Miro?

New User Login Experience - How to get them straight to the board list vs. to the Templates page?

Hi All, Just starting to invite Day Pass users to a Team and we’re finding that when they log in, the first screen they get to is the “Pick a template” screen, if they X out of that, they are on a new Board of their own creation. I find this (as did our first Day Pass user) very disorienting. Is there a way for new users to come directly into the board list view? If not, how do others deal with it? Just include instructions to click out of the template, out of the board, and into the board you’d like them to join? (seems like 2-3 extra steps that virtually every new Day Pass user would need to take.   Also, can you invite Day Pass users just to a board, or do they have to be on a team (with access to all of the boards on that team)?   Thanks in advance,   David
