Summary
Miro's Share menu lets you send board access by email, generate a shareable link, or invite an entire team, with granular permission controls for each collaborator. Getting sharing settings right keeps your work visible to the right people while protecting it from unwanted edits.
Step-by-step guide
Step 1
Open the Share menu
Open the board you want to share and click the green Share button in the top-right corner of the screen. This opens a panel where you can invite people directly, generate a link, or manage existing access. If you haven't created the board yet, start with the steps in creating a board first.
Step 2
Invite people by email
In the Share panel, select the Invite people tab and type in the email addresses of the people you want to add. Miro lets you invite multiple people at once by separating addresses with commas. This method works well for adding named collaborators, similar to the process covered in inviting collaborators.
Step 3
Share the board via link
Switch to the link-sharing section of the Share panel and toggle it on to generate a shareable URL. Choose whether the link is restricted to your organization or open to anyone who has it, then click Copy link to paste it into an email, chat, or document.
Step 4
Set permission levels
Before sending invites or sharing a link, use the dropdown next to each person or the link setting to choose Viewer, Commenter, or Editor access. Viewers can only look at the board, Commenters can leave feedback on sticky notes and shapes, and Editors can fully edit content, including moving or adding elements.
Step 5
Restrict access for sensitive boards
For boards with confidential content, keep link sharing turned off and rely only on named invites so access stays limited to people you approve. This is especially useful for retrospectives or planning boards where you don't want uninvited viewers, such as those built using create a retrospective.
Step 6
Share with a team
If your board belongs to a specific team space, open the Share panel and select the team name to grant access to every member at once instead of adding individuals one by one. This is faster for onboarding an entire group working on a shared project.
Step 7
Confirm and send invites
Once permissions and recipients are set, click the Invite button to finalize the share. Invited collaborators receive an email notification with a direct link to open the board, and you can revisit the Share panel anytime to adjust or revoke access.
Why this matters
You're wrapping up a brainstorm session and need stakeholders in another department to review it without editing your layout. Sharing your board correctly lets you control who can view, comment, or edit, so your ideas stay protected while still reaching the right collaborators, whether internal teammates or outside clients.
