Miro Insights is available directly on your Miro boards as a convenient side panel, allowing you to access your product data and add items to your canvas without leaving your workspace.
Accessing Insights from the canvas
- Open any Miro board where you want to work with your product data.
- Select Tools, Media & Integrations from the left sidebar.
- Look for Insights in the board toolbar.
- Select Insights to open the side panel.
The panel opens with tabs for Ask AI, Backlog, Feedback, and Companies.
This canvas integration provides a streamlined way to incorporate your product management data directly into collaborative sessions, planning meetings, and design workshops.
Ask AI tab
Ask questions about your backlog and customer feedback and get AI-powered insights without switching contexts. This is perfect for real-time analysis during meetings. Results can be discussed and captured directly on the board.
Backlog tab
The Backlog tab allows you to browse and manage your features and issues. You can easily filter and search through backlog items, then select specific ones to add to your canvas. This tab is particularly useful for roadmap planning and prioritization sessions.
Feedback tab
In the Feedback tab, you can access and review customer feedback, insights, patterns, and trends. You can add relevant feedback items to support your discussions, effectively connecting the customer voice to your visual planning process.
Companies tab
The Companies tab provides visibility into company information and requests. You can see which customers are driving specific features and add company context to your roadmap discussions. This information helps support account-based planning decisions.
Adding items to your board
You can add items from the Backlog, Feedback, and Companies tabs directly to your Miro board as cards:
- Go to the relevant tab (Ask AI, Backlog, Feedback, or Companies).
- Browse or search for the items you want to add.
- Select one or multiple items from the list.
- Select Add item to board to add as a card(s).
Cards appear on your canvas with relevant information. You can then position, connect, and organize cards as needed.
Card information
Cards created from Insights include:
- Item titles and/or description.
- Key metadata like priority, status, or company names.
- Visual indicators showing item type (feature, issue, feedback).
- Links back to the full Insights data.
Miro Insights side panel vs full web app
When to use canvas side panel
- Real-time collaboration: During live sessions with multiple participants
- Visual planning: When spatial relationships matter for understanding
- Context preservation: When you need insights data alongside other visual work
- Quick access: For brief references or simple data pulls
When to use full web app
- Deep analysis: For comprehensive data exploration and filtering
- Administrative tasks: Managing bulk operations, imports, or configuration
- Detailed reporting: Creating comprehensive reports or exports
- Complex workflows: Multi-step processes requiring full functionality
The canvas integration complements rather than replaces the full Insights application, giving you flexibility in how you access and use your product data.
