May 2025 Whiteboard Updates!

Hey Whiteboards Enthusiasts!

We're thrilled to announce a fresh batch of updates to enhance your Confluence whiteboarding experience. Dive into these new features and let us know what you think!

 

šŸ“„ Bulk Miro Importer

For those of you using Miro, we've made it easier than ever to import your boards in bulk. This means less time spent transferring content and more time spent collaborating and creating. You can read more about this here!

 

šŸ“© Mural Importer (beta)

Alongside our single Miro importer and our Bulk Miro Importer, we’ve also been working on a single Mural importer. Seamlessly bring your Mural content into Confluence whiteboards. This feature allows you to continue your creative processes without missing a beat, integrating your existing work into our platform effortlessly.

 

šŸ“ˆ Increase Element Limit

We've heard your feedback and have increased the element limit on whiteboards - now at 10,000 elements! Now, you can add more content and details to your boards without worrying about hitting that cap.

 

šŸ“Multi Select Resizing

This has been a long time coming. Efficiency is key, and with our new multi-select resizing feature, you can adjust the size of multiple elements at once. This makes organizing and formatting your whiteboards quicker and more intuitive.

 

šŸ“ƒ New Templates

Explore our new range of templates designed to help you kickstart your projects. This collection covers everything from visualizing data and mapping processes to strategic analysis and collaborative planning. You’ll find templates for diagrams (like supply and demand graphs, block diagrams), frameworks for strategy and decision-making (such as strategy diamond, Porter's 5 forces, decision matrix, theory of change, brand strategy), tools for comparison and organization (T-charts, affinity diagrams, tier lists), as well as templates for process mapping, empathy mapping, RACI charts, critical path analysis, and more—making it easier than ever to get started, collaborate, and bring your ideas to life.

 

šŸ” Search on a Whiteboard

Finding specific content on a whiteboard is now a breeze with our new search functionality. Quickly locate text, shapes, and other elements to streamline your workflow.

 

 

We hope these updates make your whiteboarding experience even more productive and enjoyable. As always, we value your feedback, so don't hesitate to share your thoughts with us!

Happy whiteboarding!

Will the text size update and match if you resize a shape?

Well done! The whiteboards team is rocking it, as IMO, whiteboards are by far the most impactful new feature within the Atlassian ecosystem over the last 10 years.

My new feature requests in order of priority:
- Ensure that Whiteboards are included in the "copy to Sandbox" activity to support enterprise customers.
- Ensure that Whiteboards are included in backup/bulk export and site to site transition tools. This is necessary to meet the BCP (i.e. Business Continuity Planning) needs of larger organisations who need to plan for black swan scenarios such as Confluence going down. Imagine if you can't access critical documentation required to respond to an incident due to Confluence being down as part of that incident. We need to be able to export stuff and store it offline.
- Add ability to mark a "major version" of a whiteboard so that it doesn't get deleted.
- Add the ability to automatically populate Jira work item cards into a Section based on a filter criteria.
- Add the ability to directly transition Jira work items, rather than just add a label (then use automations to do the transition)
- Add a hexagon shape with 6 connectors, because "hexagons are the bestagons".

Dear All,

 

I think searching the whiteboard is an excellent idea. 

Additionally, I would love to know if we can add table, or link with another whiteboard.

I am not sure why my widget is not being updated.whiteboard.png

If you can help with it, that would be great. It is a couple of days now. Please do let me know if something is required at my end.
