Lucid for Developers

The embedded Lucid chart is displayed in a viewer where the user can scroll the chart even if the entire chart fits the window. It is very easy to accidentally scroll the chart out of view in the viewer. Is there a simple embedded viewer option where the chart is fixed in the viewer? 

Hi,Currently we’re using SCIM to manage our user access and grant/remove licenses - this is working fine from our user management side for onboard/offboarding but has some caveats such as not being able to poll the license information directly, which has the potential to put us over our license count.Are there any APIs available for querying specifically information about our licenses? Ideally an endpoint that we can use to retrieve what products we’re licensed for, how many licenses are issued and how many are available would be brilliant. Cheers,Taffin

I’ve been experimenting with the Import document API using the standard lucid format, and it’s been great for the most part. One thing I’m running into though, is it seems like when I supply line breaks or bulleted lists via HTML, the breaks/bullets get ignored. I’ve tried even uploading the sample I found in Github, https://github.com/lucidsoftware/sample-lucid-rest-applications/blob/44f7c102b8dec5fd2495aaba17c6797aff668ca8/standard-import/demo-files/filesystem/unzipped-contents/document.json#L11 and I don’t think the line break for that is working either. Has anyone had success with this? Curious if it’s end user error on my end. I’m hoping to get to where we can have code produce our diagrams, and being able to create line breaks/b

It is possible to use a formula in the Conditional Formatting to access the data in a link applied to that shape?I am looking to both access whether a link has been added to the shape and also the link itself if it is a URL or a different Lucidchart Page. Thanks,Reid

Hi! I’m getting a “badRequest” response from the documents API indicating  "details": {        "error": "Count: 2, message: error.expected.jsstring",        "import_error_code": "invalid_file"    } My payload is a single page document with 61 shapes and 82 lines. I have looked at string fields (in my case: title, shapes.type, shapes.style.type, shapes.text, lines.stroke.style, linetype, lines.text.text).I was expecting to perhaps spot an unescaped character, or something, but can’t see anything wrong. Any idea what could be wrong? Am I hitting some sort of size limit?The JSON is dynamically created as part of a software I’m building, and works in every other scenario except for this specific one.Thank you for your help!Paul  

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.

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, "\

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.

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=

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

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
