How can I automate the creation/update of Lucid Org Charts from Workday data via the REST API?

My team wants to automate the flow of pulling Workday Org Data and importing into Lucid Org Charts. I need help understanding how to do this with Lucid via an Azure Cloud Function pulling from Workday. Please and thank you in advance! :)

Hello Dsilva.Vep,

We have a way to easily refresh org chart data (See Manage Data, Refresh a Data Set). We currently have a beta feature to provide 2 way syncing with a Microsoft 365 Excel spreadsheet which might be what you need.
 
If that doesn’t work for your use case, another option might be to use our Import function to create a new document with a Data Backed Shape (an org chart is one of these data backed shapes).

Thanks for reaching out!
