### Step 2: Selecting the Miro board that you want to embed

There are two ways to embed a Miro board into Confluence with Miro Embed for Confluence:

* Connecting to a Miro account
* Pasting a url link or embed code.

Let's review both approaches.

### Connecting to a Miro account

After triggering Miro Embed for Confluence, you will land on this macro window.

To connect to your Miro account:

* Click on the **Connect to Miro** button
* Authenticate with your email and password
* Select the corresponding team

Once you have selected the right team, you will be able to select which board you want to embed directly from the macro and without opening Miro in a new tab.

You can try Miro embed for Confluence with a sample board. However, the free navigation mode has been disabled to protect the sample content.

**Board url:**   
https://miro.com/app/board/o9J\_lV6xAmM=/

**Embed link in presentation mode:**   
<iframe width="768" height="432" src="https://miro.com/app/embed/o9J\_lV6xAmM=/?pres=1&frameId=3074457354140961281" frameBorder="0" scrolling="no" allowFullScreen></iframe>

There are two ways to share a board. Let’s see each of them separately.

#### Option 1\. Using the board URL

* Once in your desired board, copy the entire url

Here, you can also decide whether your board will be editable by others (**Free navigation**) or view-only (**presentation**)

### Making your boards look great

Miro embed for Confluence takes care of board proportions for you.

#### Adjusting the width

To change the width natively, simply click in the embedded board in the Confluence page, then choose between centered, wide, and full width in the visual menu.

#### Adjusting the height

The height is set by default to 600 pixels – a comfortable numbere for most screen resolutions. However, you can adjust it manually anytime clicking on the edit button below the board.
