Adding Adobe XD artboards to Miro boards

If the link is public, the artboards will appear right away. Choose an artboard or check the Select all box and push the Insert artboard button. The artboard will appear on the board.

To refresh the artboard, simply click the Xd icon on the artboard context menu.

You can only refresh private artboards shared with you if your Adobe XD account is connected to Miro. Otherwise, you will get a warning message:

Possible issues with Adobe XD and how to resolve them
1. You get the Verify that this XD Share Link still exists and you have the right permissions in XD error when pasting the Adobe XD URL into Miro.
- You are using the non-XD-share link (for example, an Adobe Library link). For reference an Adobe XD share link looks like this https://xd.adobe.com/view/d17650e4-8b11-488e-ac60-e6e2866666cd-8425/.
- We also throw this error if the Adobe XD share has been removed in XD or if a user that is adding it in Miro does not have the right permission to access the share link.
2. Verify that you have the right permissions in XD.
- This error is shown when a user refreshes an image in Miro using the XD icon on the image widget menu and either the Adobe XD share link was removed or the permission changed and a user who is trying to refresh does not have access to it. To troubleshoot the issue, please sign out of your Adobe ID in Miro and connect your Creative Cloud again.
