    Article summary

    During meetings, it’s often necessary to collaborate on visual aspects like notes, timelines, and organizing topics. While doing so in a physical meeting room whiteboard is easy enough, video meetings require a different tool.

    That’s why Dialpad offers Miro integration allowing you to create an online collaborative whiteboard inside Dialpad Meetings where you can create notes with all the meeting participants. Miro boards are automatically saved so that you can continue the work after the meeting is over.

    Let's get into the details of using this Miro with Dialpad Meetings.

    Who can use this feature
    Dialpad's Miro integration is available to all Dialpad Connect and Dialpad Meetings users.

    Enable Miro

    To enable Miro, head to your Settings from the Dialpad Meetings dashboard. 

    1. Select Account
    2. Navigate to Integrations
    3. Toggle the slider beside Miro

    Note

    For Dialpad Meetings Free users, Miro is enabled by default. 

    For Dialpad Meetings Business users, Miro is disabled by default and will need to be enabled by the account administrator in Account Settings.

    Launch Miro

    Launching Miro from a meeting is a piece of cake. 

    1. Click the More button from the bottom bar
    2. Select Start Miro whiteboard

    You can create as many boards as you’d like during each meeting.
