How do I export a Lucid Document as a PDF via API

Hi All

We have an enterprise account, and I would like to export my chart as a pdf through the API, using PowerAutomate.

After a week of struggling, I’ve got it to export as PNG, but the issue is the low fidelity, as this is a very big, single page document.

I’ve tried looking at the documentation and even the forums, but can’t find any info on how to export as PDF instead.

Please help a brother out 😭

Hello marnusvd, I am investigating now and will be in touch soon. Can you send me the `documentId` privately? I won’t have access to the document, but can check the logs to learn more about what is happoening.

Thank you all for your help, it seems it is possible.. but only with an add-on, very disappointed that this feature is behind yet another pay wall.
Which wouldn’t be as bad our API export file limit wasn’t as small as it was...
