Help with access to the Lucidchart API

Hi Chirag thank you for contributing to the Lucid Community! We will follow-up tomorrow with a response to your question.

Thank you in advance for your help and patience!

hey Richard just following up to see if you had an update? thanks!

Hi Chirag thank you for following up. We've responded to your question directly in the Support ticket you submitted. 

Just modify the redirect Uri to your Web application.

Hope that helps

Thanks @michel l!

For any future viewers of this thread - here's a breakdown of the steps in our documentation:

1. Obtain Client ID and Client Secret: You've already obtained these from your Lucid team administration page which is great.

2. Register Redirect URI: This step is crucial. You need to specify where Lucid should redirect the user after they grant access. This should be a URL controlled by your app. Lucid will append the authorization code to the URL as a query parameter called code. For example if your app's URL is https://example.com the redirect URI could be https://example.com/auth-callback.

3. Test Redirect URI: Lucid offers a convenient redirect URI for testing purposes. You can register it as follows:

   • Redirect URI: https://lucid.app/oauth2/clients/{client id}/redirect

   When you use this redirect URI and a user grants access to your app Lucid will redirect them to a page on their site where they can view and copy the authorization code.

Make sure that your app's logic is set up to capture the code parameter from the redirect URL and use it to complete the OAuth 2.0 flow. If you have any more questions or need further assistance feel free to ask! Good luck with your Lucid API integration. 🚀

​@Richard Udell I am getting the “no valid scopes available” error but I have set the scope in the request for code url to account.user which I found on the list of scopes in the documentation, https://developer.lucid.co/reference/access-scopes. Does my app need permission to the scopes before creating the code?

Hi ​@Amanda.DeLeo!

Does my app need permission to the scopes before creating the code?

Yes! The authorization URL used to generate the authorization code must include the scopes you’d like to have in your OAuth2 token.

To make sure I’m fully grasping the issue, can you please share your authorization URL and the specific endpoint you’re requesting?

I’m glad to hear that! Thanks for reporting back the solution. Don’t hesitate to reach out if anything else comes up.

I am trying to get started with Lucid apis. The basic thing I am trying to do is get a list of licensed users. However when I use the below url using my admin account I get client ID missing. I have looked through so many documents however I couldn't find it. Can you suggest the next steps to make it work?
