Use Miro Boards in ClickUp
The Miro integration lets you bring visual collaboration directly into ClickUp so teams can access and update Miro boards without leaving their workflows. This guide explains how to set up the integration, attach live boards to tasks, and manage permissions.
Overview of the Miro and ClickUp Integration
The Miro integration connects your Miro account to ClickUp, allowing you to embed and interact with live boards inside tasks. This improves collaboration on brainstorming, product discovery, agile planning, and diagramming work.
With the integration enabled, you can:
- Attach existing Miro boards to tasks
- Create new boards from inside tasks
- Open boards in Miro from ClickUp
- Control sharing and access settings for each attached board
The integration is secure and uses Miro OAuth authentication. Only authorized users can connect accounts and manage boards.
Requirements to Use Miro in ClickUp
Before you begin, confirm that you meet these requirements:
- A valid Miro account with access to the boards you plan to use
- A ClickUp Workspace where you can install integrations
- Permission in ClickUp to install and manage apps (typically admins or owners)
Your Miro plan determines which collaboration features are available, such as advanced sharing, guest access, or team management.
How to Enable the Miro Integration in ClickUp
Use the following steps to connect Miro and ClickUp at the Workspace level.
Step 1: Open the Miro integration settings in ClickUp
- Log in to your ClickUp Workspace.
- Open the main menu and go to the Integrations or Apps area.
- Find and select the Miro integration from the list of available apps.
Step 2: Authorize the Miro connection
- Click Connect or Enable on the Miro integration tile.
- A new window or tab opens and redirects you to Miro’s sign-in page, if you are not already logged in.
- Sign in to your Miro account and review the permission request.
- Click Allow or Authorize to grant ClickUp access to your Miro boards.
After successful authorization, the integration will appear as connected in your ClickUp Workspace settings. Team members with access can now attach boards to tasks.
Attach Miro Boards to ClickUp Tasks
Once the integration is enabled, you can attach a Miro board directly to a task in ClickUp. This keeps context and visual collaboration together in a single place.
Open a task and access the Miro option
- Open any task in your ClickUp Workspace.
- Locate the section where you can add attachments or apps (commonly under the task description or comments area).
- Select the option to add or embed a Miro board.
Attach an existing Miro board in ClickUp
- When prompted, choose Select existing board.
- If required, sign in to Miro again or confirm your connected account.
- Browse the list of boards you have access to in Miro.
- Select the board you want to attach and confirm.
The selected Miro board appears embedded in the task with a live, interactive view. You can usually resize the board window and open it in a new tab if needed.
Create a new Miro board from a ClickUp task
- Open the task where you want to create a new board.
- Choose the option to add a Miro board.
- Select Create new board when prompted.
- Give the new board a meaningful name and confirm its location within your Miro account or team.
The new board is created in Miro and automatically attached to the ClickUp task. You and your teammates can immediately start collaborating on it.
Manage Miro Board Permissions in ClickUp
Access to an embedded Miro board is controlled primarily by settings in Miro, but you should also consider how people use the board from inside ClickUp.
Adjust sharing settings in Miro
To manage who can view or edit a board that appears in ClickUp:
- Open the board in Miro from the embedded view or via the Open in Miro button.
- Go to the board’s sharing settings.
- Choose the appropriate access level, such as:
- Private to specific members
- Accessible to the entire Miro team
- Shared via link with view or edit permissions
These sharing options determine how users who open the board from ClickUp interact with it.
Understand access from ClickUp tasks
When teammates click the embedded board inside ClickUp:
- They are prompted to sign in to Miro if they are not already authenticated.
- Their access level matches the sharing configuration you set in Miro.
- Users without permission in Miro will not be able to view or edit the content, even if they can open the task in ClickUp.
Keep this in mind when you attach boards to shared tasks, especially for cross-functional or external collaboration.
Work With Embedded Miro Boards in ClickUp
After a board is attached, you can work with it directly in the task to streamline your workflow.
Interact with boards inside ClickUp
From within the task, you can typically:
- Zoom and navigate across the canvas
- Add or move sticky notes, shapes, and connectors
- Edit diagrams, wireframes, and flows
- Review comments and contributions from teammates
Actions performed on the embedded board are synchronized with Miro in real time, so there is no need to export or reattach files.
Open boards in full-screen or in Miro
If you need more space to work:
- Use the option to expand the embedded board inside ClickUp, if available.
- Click Open in Miro to open the board in a dedicated browser tab, where you can access the complete set of Miro tools.
This flexibility lets you switch between a quick in-task view and a full collaboration session as needed.
Troubleshooting the Miro Integration in ClickUp
If you run into issues using the integration, verify the following common causes.
Board not loading or not visible
- Confirm that your Miro account is still connected to ClickUp.
- Check that you are logged in to the correct Miro account in your browser.
- Review the board’s sharing settings in Miro to ensure you have permission to view it.
- Refresh the ClickUp task or reopen it in a new tab.
Authorization or connection errors
- Remove or disconnect the Miro integration from your ClickUp Workspace settings.
- Reconnect the Miro integration and repeat the authorization process.
- Make sure your organization’s security or browser settings are not blocking pop-ups or third‑party cookies required for Miro OAuth.
