Hello Team, We have two questions:1- We have a team Lucid Folder that we want to watch (export any document that gets newly created or gets modified). Is there a mechanism to set-up event/trigger if that folder is updated?2- When we query folder-contents, we receive list of all documents within a folder. Can we get their last updated timestamp? Thank you

Hello Lucid developers!At my work I'm trying to add Lucid export to one mobile app. According to the documentation I'm trying to redirect a client from my mobile app to a web browser at https://lucid.app/oauth2/authorize (plus necessary parameters).And in a mobile browser (more precisely android’s Custom Tabs), after logging into Lucid, the user sees such a screen (see screenshot). It doesn't seem to be optimized for mobile devices. It seems even not horizontally scrollable. Can you (Lucid developers) fix this? Or maybe I can fix this from my side somehow?I also have two less important questions.1) The user of the mobile application can log in through a web browser, after which the application receives an authorization code and the necessary tokens. After this, the user may want to unlink the mobile application from his Lucid account and we call the API here (https://developer.lucid.co/rest-api/v1/#oauth2-revoke-access-token). After which the user may want to log in to Lucid again with

Hello, We were using the SCIM api with a connector app to Grouper, but since the update to LucidSuite, that no longer works.The developer docs still reference doing licenses like this:"productLicenses": {    "Lucidchart": True,    "Lucidspark": false,    "LucidscaleCreator": false,    "LucidscaleExplorer": false} Do you have the updated schema available so that we can restore license functionality?

Hello Team, I am using API to export document. However, it exports only first tab of the document. Could you point me to resources / end-points that I could use to export all tabs within a diagram?

I would like to know if there is a way to convert employee cards from auto generate Excel org charts into contact cards for Salesforce. The current format of the org chart from Excel lists all contacts as employees, but is there a function to convert them to contacts? 

Hello everyone,I have the following problem, I have created a script to get all data about the shapes of each page from a Lucidchart document with the Lucid API. The Lucid document now has over 160 pages. The script worked as long as the Lucidchart document had fewer pages, now I get the status code 500 when requesting the contents (see the snippet of the code for the request)....headers <- httr::add_headers( 'Authorization' = paste('Bearer', token$credentials$access_token), 'Lucid-Api-Version' = '1')....response_document_content <- httr::GET(paste0("https://api.lucid.co/documents/", document_id, "/contents"), headers)#test responseif (response_document_content$status_code == 200) { content_document_content <- httr::content(response_document_content, type = "application/json")} else { cat("Request failed with status:", response_document_content$status_code, "\n") cat(content(response_document_content, "text"), "\n")}To reduce the load of the request, I tried to reduce it

Getting following error while attempting to embed a document in html  

Hello, I am trying to create a script that would export all files in the Lucid platform as an image file, however I am getting the following error message when trying to call the api below. The interesting part is though, I don’t get this error message if I have opened the file in a browser prior to using the api.  Is this a bug or is it something I am not doing. api:https://api.lucid.co/documents/03682f3d-7947-41d5-bd3c-1ea6e66f68b5response:{ "code": "accessForbidden", "message": "Access to this resource is forbidden", "requestId": "42f57773fbf39c50"}Thank You, Bereket Redhat Inc. 

Hi Lucid Developers! 👋Since the launch of our JSON Import functionality, we've seen an array of creative and efficient uses by our customers. In this post, we'll address some of the most frequently asked questions about the JSON Import feature. Additionally, we’d like to announce expanded functionality based on your valuable feedback: support for adding notes to shapes via the API! 🌟 Adding notes to shapes 📄You can now add notes to shapes, groups and layers by including a note field in your shape properties. For more information on how to do this, feel free to check out our documentation here!  JSON Import API FAQs 🙋 Q: Is the JSON import asynchronous? How will I know when the import is complete?No, it is actually synchronous. When the request is returned, the document is complete. Q: Is z-order for an entity based on array position? Last-on-top or first-on-top? (Does this mean lines are already "on top" of shapes, since it is a separate array?)In Lucid's JSON structure, z-order re

I’m getting an error while trying to embed a Viewer iFrame using the REST API. “Our servers experienced an error. We apologize for the inconvenience. I send a POST to https://api.lucid.co/embeds/token with no embedId, just the origin in the body and the bearer token in the header per the documentation here: https://developer.lucid.co/rest-api/v1/#generate-embed-session-token60 I get back a Session Token in the body of the response and then set this as my iFrame source:https://lucid.app/embeds?token=:token where :token is replaced with the response from the POST and get the below error. This was working previously but stopped working at some point, I think in December. I believe it is also not working when there is an embedId but haven’t had a chance to retest that.  

I’m trying to create a user via the REST Api, I can successfully create them but they don’t get created with a license. Is there a way to create a user via the REST API with a standard user license assigned?

I am trying to develop functionality for a custom Extension and I would like to reference a value from a JSON object stored in a Field. The documentation has formulas (such as GET(obj, val)) that I am trying to use. However, they are not working and I am running into issues.I then tried to figure out the intended format of objects by using the examples provided in the documentation. However, these do not work and I am needing help.Using this page: https://developer.lucid.co/formulas/#get, I am trying to get the GET formula of the Object class working. There is a Field called “Object” with values “{ "A": 1, "B": 2, "C": 3, "D": 4, "E": 5, }”. Then, values can be retrieved from that object using =GET(@Object, “A”). I tried to simulate this on my own document but ran into issues. Can someone help me understand the format objects can be stored in? Specifically, can I store an object in JSON format in a field and use the GET formula to get value from it?Link to test document: https://lucid.

What are the ideal scopes needed for this User token when trying to access a lucidchart document? Having tried most of the scopes provided in the documentation, I have not been able to get anything other than a 403 error. Verified the error code from the website as well, created a lucidchart test doc with a valid id to work with. Any ideas or information on how to approach this would be helpful.

Is there a way to share a URL like you can in the Share>publish menu via the developer API? Thanks

Hi all Is it possible to integrated Lucid in websites build with FE tech like Angular/React where user can see and utilize all the functionalities like create floorplan etc. here users of this system won't need to have their own Lucid account system will use common account with separate document for each user.  

Hello I'm working on a custom shape library. I got a new package uploaded but there was a problem with it. So I fixed it (I think) and tried to upload a new bundle and I got an error:Can't seem to figure out what the issue is.

I am interested in integrating Lucidchart with our third-party application to access Lucidchart documents. However Lucid REST API integration lacks shape library details necessary for converting content to BPMN format which is one of our preferred formats. I am exploring the possibility of directly exporting Lucidchart documents in CSV format via an external API or a custom API service that connects to our third-party application. This would greatly enhance our workflow and allow for seamless data exchange between systems. I kindly request assistance and guidance on achieving this integration and CSV export functionality. Your expertise and support in this matter would be greatly appreciated.  

Hello Any idea on what this invalid_scope error would be? Trying to setup oauth connectivity.   https%3A%2F%2Fdeveloper.lucid.co%2Fapi%2F%23general-oauth2-errors&error_description=Invalid+scopes%3A+&state=-529097523

Hello currently I am developing an integration using Angular to create a panel for dragging blocks. I am trying to follow the Angular guide provided by Lucid here:https://developer.lucid.co/guides/#angular However I am encountering a problem. My panel appears and I can see my blocks but when I try to drag a block it doesn't get placed on the canvas. I'm not sure how to implement the part described in "Step 6: Write your Angular app." I'm unsure if this component is necessary to refresh the web page when I place a block. Please help me with this issue.     I didn't implement this code: import {Injectable} from '@angular/core';@Injectable() export class DataFromExtension {public ids: string[] = [];constructor() {//Listen for lists of selected item IDswindow.addEventListener('message' (event) =>{ if (event.data['ids']) { this.ids = event.data['ids']; } });//Once ready to receive those messages ask the extension to refresh dataparent.postMessage('refresh' '*'); } }

I have created custom UIs within MIRO as part of my organization product offerings.  We would like to provide a similar experience to LucidChart.  React would be our preferred web framework and I see documentation on this. LucidChart toolbar has File Edit View Insert set menu items.  Can you extend LucidChart menu?  Add a new menu item perhaps with sub menus? Shapes on the document in LucidChart contain a right click.  Can you add new right-click menu items? The documentation for React UI shows adding a new custom right panel.   I looked but cannot find the other options to add panels or modals.  What are the alternatives? Thanks Dan

I read the documentation on how to use React web framework to make custom UIs within LucidChart which can be found here: The documentation does a good job of explaining the development workflow.   Suppose I built a new react custom right panel.  How can I provide this custom right panel to all potential Lucidchart users? What is the process for end users to add custom apps?

We are trying to create chart using API but we see only GetContents API only. Is there any POST API where we can create chart contents using the API.  

With respect to the Extension API calling `this.sendMessage` is not resulting in the iframe receiving the message. The code is being called from a class that extends `Panel`. The receiving iframe _does_ receive messages from the parent frame but not the ones I'm sending. Here's some of the `extension.ts` code: https://pastebin.com/LnTGjp9C The receiving frame's code is simple: window.addEventListener('message' function(event) {    console.log(arguments);}); Here's a screenshot of the events that _are_ captured (but not the one I'm sending from the parent):  https://s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/onassar.prod.02/screenshots/Screenshot%202023-08-28%20at%201.18.44%20PM.jpg
