Miro + Dropbox

We’re big fans of working smarter, (you might have noticed) and as we go into 2022, now is the perfect time to learn about integrations that make your day easier - starting with Miro. If you don’t know, Miro is the online whiteboard that enables distributed teams to collaborate any time anywhere - and works with your Dropbox files and Paper. Miro’s infinite canvas allows you and your team to lead workshops and meetings, design products, brainstorm ideas, and more, so check out some of our tips below. 
 
 
Miro and Dropbox: How to make the most of visual collaboration
 
If you already use Miro regularly, you might have noticed some updates - and now you can work seamlessly with Miro right inside Dropbox Paper, without the hassle of switching tabs. You can embed live boards into the Paper doc you’re working on, creating a place for all the discussion and context to live together, in one place. Edit the Miro board in real time with your teammates, right as you’re writing your Paper do Paper doc and vice versa. Create robust, comprehensive documents, with all the information accessible in one place. 
 
You can also add files from Dropbox to any of your Miro boards, so you can access the information any time and invite your team to contribute, comment, and give feedback. You can allow your team to comment and share other files, and manage the big picture during collaborative activities like brainstorming with digital sticky notes, to sprint planning and managing complex projects with cross-functional teams. This makes it easy to gather and access information, collaborate with teammates, and stay organized throughout projects.
 
Miro templates for 2022
 
With these templates, exclusively created by Dropbox in partnership with Miro, you can take a plan from a brainstorm to a product launch, tackle big projects, so you can connect and engage even when you’re not in the same place! 

 

 

 We would love to know how you use Miro - is it for collaborating with your own team or multiple teams?

    Hi! Do I need to do any setup before embedding a Miro board into a Paper doc or do I simply copy the embed code in? I've tried the latter and it's not working so I'm wondering if it's a user error (likely!) or glitch. Thanks!

    Hi SamSullivan,

     

    Thanks for posting and welcome to the Dropbox Community. Pasting the Miro board link directly into the Paper doc should be enough to add the board to the document so it looks like this may have been a glitch. If this issue persists for you do let us know and we can investigate further for you. You can see how it should work in the video below. I hope this helps!  

     

    Thanks, and have a great day!

    Got it! So the embed code isn't needed, just the link — perfect! Thanks!
