Excel two way sync via data linking doesn’t seem to work for ERD shapes. For existing physical databases there are other existing features that work, BUT for database objects that do not exist, the process is cumbersome. Possible through the data import, but there is an added step of updating the file and resaving to CSV and uploading to Lucid. It would be great to establish the connection to the excel file and being able to refresh instead repeating the csv save and upload.
