Users can transfer data by copying, as well as save tables and popular Kanban and USM formats

VK The board (runs in beta) has improved the functionality of transferring data from Miro's foreign collaboration platform. Users have become available a way to transfer content via the clipboard, which will provide more opportunities for efficient work.

In order to quickly transfer visual and text elements, users need to select fragments on the board in Miro and copy them. The selected data is automatically transferred to the clipboard. Next, users need to open the VK Board and get them up. This will allow you to quickly and conveniently transfer and not lose all important elements, as well as continue to work with them after backup.

One of the key advantages of the functionality was the ability to transfer Kanban, USM (User Story Mapping) formats and tables. Now, project users can easily adapt their workflows by importing out-of-the-box templates and structures into the VK Board. This will significantly save time preparing and completing tasks.

We strive to make VK Board the most convenient and multifunctional tool for efficient work and study. Users really expected the ability to transfer data through the clipboard, as well as the usual elements in Kanban and USM format, and they were implemented first of all, "said Sergey Prokudin, head of the product department of VK Boards.

Ability to migrate and save data from an overseas collaboration platform

VK Board (running in beta for August 2024) will help users migrate and save their data from a foreign collaboration platform. This will allow you not to lose important visual and text elements, and also continue to work with them later. For each new virtual space, a board with the same name and owner rights will be created. VK (formerly Mail.ru Group) announced this on August 30, 2024.

In order to use the transfer, the user will need to go to the corresponding section of the VK Board and log in to Miro. After authentication, the added functionality and a list of previously saved virtual boards will become available. As part of the transfer, the user will be able to save all the usual elements for full-fledged work:

• Shapes with color and stroke formatting, including text blocks
• links between figures (arrows);
• stickers, including those with text inside;
• Texts located outside the shapes
• images;
• frames;
• templates, provided that in Miro they are composed of standard figures.

Also, users can transfer content with an unlimited number of both personal boards and those to which they have access to Miro. For each new virtual space, a virtual board with the same name and owner rights will be created.
