How to Setup the Dropbox Dash Connector for Miro

Overview

Users can connect their Miro account to Dropbox Dash, allowing them to access and search all of their Miro content directly within Dash. This integration requires OAuth authentication to ensure that Dash only retrieves information relevant to the user’s data, giving them full control over what Dash can access. Dash strictly adheres to the OAuth model, meaning it only accesses the data users specifically permit.

Users can only connect to Dash if the integration has been approved and enabled by their Dash admin.

Team members must authorize access for Dash to connect.

Integration features

For Miro, Dash will capture the following details:

Crawling strategy and performance

  • Content sync begins immediately after establishing a connection, to ensure you can start searching right away, prioritizing the most relevant data.
    • “Recent/latest items" refer to content that a user has interacted with through actions such as preview, upload, create, comment, open, modify/update, share, and shared-with-me.
  • Incremental sync occurs every 15 minutes.
