It could be interesting to have a Rest API for using the compliance feature available in the Admin panel of a Lucid Portal subscription.Regards.

Some types of the response body are wrong:fullName must be string instead of numberid must be number instead of string.Regards.

Whenever I try to upload a package I get the following error:We could not upload that file. Please try again with a different .zip file.Missing or malformed file in package: editorextensions\in-a-circle-ext\bin\extension.jsI’ve attempted to make it as simple as possible of an extension by copying one of the example extensions. https://github.com/lucidsoftware/sample-lucid-extensions/blob/main/in-a-circle/editorextensions/in-a-circle/src/extension.tsI created the extension using:npx lucid-package@latest createCopied and pasted the code from the github into my extension.ts.Tested using:npx lucid-package@latest test-editor-extension in-a-circle-extAnd bundled using:npx lucid-package@latest bundlenpx version = 11.6.2lucid-package version = 0.0.127lucid-extension-sdk = 0.0.447Running on WindowsLooking into the zip file, the extension.js file is in the correct place, so I’m guessing it’s malformed somehow?

Hi,I am working on a programmatic diagramming tool which draws shapes and connects them with lines using the JSON standard import.The shapes do not overlap with each other. I use shape endpoints for the lines, and elbow style. But the lines always cross over other boxes, making the diagram look very unclean. I am trying to make the lines avoid other shapes (go around them).Is there a way to programmatically do this with the Lucid API?Also, when I open the diagram in Lucid there is the option to “tidy up” the diagram. Is there a way to do this with the Lucid API?If anyone has a solution, I would appreciate it!The line between App A and App B crosses over App G 

Getting status code 500 for pagination link when using the parameter eventTypes in https://lucid.readme.io/reference/queryauditlogs. Pagination works fine when not using eventTypes.   

As part of a POC we setup an OAuth2 APP with a third-party vendor and I would now like to remove it but everything is grayed out and I can't find a way to remove it.It is under Developer / Applications and has the status of Published Privately and the only option is to rename which is also grayed out, when clicking on the app all options to delete or edit are grayed out as well.My account is an Admin account for all other purposes.

When performing a search via the web UI by going to Admin > Compliance > Discovery, there is a hidden column named “Location”. I say hidden because it is only available when using the “Only export metadata CSV” option. The field “Location” is not available via https://lucid.readme.io/reference/searchdocuments. How do I get the document location via API?

The documentation at https://lucid.readme.io/reference/logins is incorrect. The eventType should be “logins.*” plural. Not singular “login”. 

I’m trying to create a new document in lucidchart by importing a .lucid file.  I am using the demo.lucid file.  I have also tried creating my own .lucid file.  I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.  Everything seems to match the instructions at https://lucid.readme.io/reference/createorcopyorimportdocument The error :    "code": "invalidImportType",    "message": "Importing the provided file type is not supported"Here is my Curl:curl --location 'https://api.lucid.co/documents' \--header 'authorization: Bearer oauth2-...8sKF' \--header 'lucid-api-version: 1' \--form 'product="lucidchart"' \--form 'title="helloform"' \--form '=@"/C:/Users/USER/Downloads/demo (1).lucid"'Here is a screenshot Any advice is appreciated

I’m running a local extension as instructed in https://github.com/lucidsoftware/sample-lucid-extensions/tree/main/asana, and want to access it in Lucidchart UI. I have turned on Developer > Load Local Extension; and the code seems to run fine```$ node bin/dataconnectors/debug-server.js Routing /?kind=action (Import, Patch, HardRefresh)Listening on port 3001```But where do I find the extension in the Lucidspart UI so I can actually use it? I searched everywhere I can think of, and can’t find it :(

Hi Team, I would like to have developer role assigned to me so that i can create API keys to use LUCID in my application. For now, it says conact your admin to get developer tool access.  Could you please help me in getting info about admin who can assign me developer role. ?

Hi, My organisation has an enterprise subscription, and I am the account owner of our organisation. I am struggling to access the developer portal. When attempting to access https://lucid.app/developer I receive an error stating “To unlock the Developer Portal, contact your admin for the developer role assignment. Unsure who your admin is? Check our documentation for guidance.” But I am the account owner, and therefore not able to assign the developer role to myself (assuming it is because the account owner role already contains the developer role). I’ve read through the documentation that says I should “Enable developer tools” in my user profile, however that toggle doesn’t exist. Nothing within my user profile indicates anything regarding developer access. The GIF indicating the actions needed does the reflect what I see in my user profile UI.  Can you please help me gain access to developer portal and API? Thanks.

When you move folder to the trashwith the Lucidchart command “Move to trash”, you find it in the trash folder.If you empty the trash folder, the folder is not visible anymore but in fact it is still there because if you use the end point “https://api.lucid.co/folders/search” the deleted folders are retrieved.How could we really delete folders?Best regards.

I'm trying to create an OAuth 2.0 application that can access our Lucidchart diagrams.I believe,  our organization needs the Lucid Developer Platform enabled so we can create OAuth 2.0 API clients with scopes (lucidchart.document.content, user.profile, offline_access). When I try to create an OAuth 2.0 application, there is no place in the UI to add scopes.Does something need to be enabled on our account to get these options? 

Hi,We’re building an automation using n8n where an AI agent generates a flowchart spec and then creates a Lucidchart diagram automatically.We’re already successfully using the Documents API with an API key to call:POST https://api.lucid.co/v1/documentsto create a new Lucid document.What we’re missing is a supported API for editing document contents – specifically, creating shapes and connectors on a page programmatically.Could you please clarify:Is there a supported, documented API (REST or otherwise) that allows us to: Create shapes (e.g., rectangles) Create connectors between shapes Set text labels and basic style in a Lucidchart (or Lucidspark) document? If yes: What is the endpoint URL and HTTP method? What auth mechanism is required (API key vs OAuth 2.0), and which scopes or grants? Could you provide the smallest working example request that, for our account, creates a single rectangle and a single connector in a document we own? If not available via REST, is the recommen

Did API exist on LucidSpark for developers ?

Hi all! I'm new here. I want to use the Lucidchart Rest API to test some integrations and automations. I have an individual plan, but it doesn’t seem to offer the option to create an API key. I would like to confirm whether I need to pay for a Team licence to create my API keys. Tks in advance.

Hey,We have configured an OAuth 2.0 application from the old Admin “integrations” section. This was working for years, however recently customers have been unable to connect. Is it related to this by any chance?Can we figure out what the problem here is? I can also no longer create a new OAuth application.

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! :) 

Dear Lucid Community,I’m encountering package ID conflicts while testing a locally loaded extension. I suspect Lucid’s heartbeat mechanism is polling all extensions registered under my account, causing errors despite my manifest specifying the correct package ID. Below are the errors:2603117…cd8957bf.js.br:2598 Attempting to heartbeat data from a locally loaded extension with package id: 404f484c-776f-4e9c-aaf1-0ecb56722e84 but the current locally loaded extension has package id: 7d1b85e8-df91-4c38-8e97-a10345ac9bf3.

Using the endpoint point “https://api.lucid.co/documents/search” we can get a list of the document as the documentation says :“Retrieves information about documents that the authenticated user has at least read only access to”But how to know which user is authenticated when calling this endpoint ?As the Oauth2.0 App used could be shared to several user, when i use this token, all the documents of my subscription are retrieved even if some user don’t have access to these documents.Did I miss something ?Regards.

Hi, I’m new to LucidCharts and am trying to use the JSON standard import API to create a diagram. I am able to upload the json file to see the rendered diagram and that’s all good. However, for a container shape that I want to use, I am unable to specify text that appears in the shape. Below is a simple JSON file that makes use of containers. I’ve specified 2 different ways to create the container, and for both, I can’t see text in the diagram. Can someone point out how to specify text for the container shapes with id=”containerTest” and “container1”? (I would prefer to use “container1” formatting). After making manual changes to the rendered diagram, I would like to export this diagram to CSV, having the shape text appear in the “Text Area 1” or “Text Area 2” columns.  { "product": "lucidchart", "version": 1, "pages": [ { "id": "Page1", "title": "TestingBlocks", "settings": { "size": { "type": "letter",

This announcement is for accounts with OAuth2 clients in the admin portal. If all your OAuth2 clients are in the dev portal (https://lucid.app/developer#/packages), then you don’t have to worry about this message.  Within the next few months, we’re moving all OAuth2 clients from the admin portal into the dev portal, where they’ll be given a new home in automatically created packages. All migrated OAuth2 clients will keep the same clientId, secret, redirect URIs, and embed domains.  These automatic actions will make these changes as seamless as possible: The new package owner will default to the account owner. Admins with previous access will be added as code editors. The account owner can then manage and give package ownership to someone else on the account. After migration, new admins will need to be manually added to packages in order to manage them. If a client wasn’t published in the admin portal, it will be marked as privately published after being moved to the dev portal.
