Lucid for Developers

Is it possible to get all the comments in a document via the API? Further can it be filtered by comment date? The use-case is to get comments for any changes since the last application release. The engineering team would update the diagram if/when something changes for the release.

Hi I'm managing an organization of less than 100 users in a non-Premium account. I was trying to use the API to ease onboarding and manage folders and group structures and stumbled upon a roadblock. I created an App Integration with scopes: readonly+offline_access+account.user and was able to query the API successfully. For selective calls such as list-folder-user-collaborators: https://developer.lucid.co/rest-api/v1/#list-folder-user-collaborators the API calls fail with a 403. {  code: 'userOperationOnly'  message: 'Only users can perform this operation'  requestId: '866a9e8bfe19e3c0'} I'm not sure how to get a user token and I have the following questions.1. How do I get / generate a User Token? Are "team-admins" allowed to generate this token or is the "account-owner" the only one allowed to do so? 2. Is this accessible without a Premium Account?   Thank you. -Boris

I am working on a Lucid extension and I have configured an oauth provider in the extension's manifest file. The OAuth provider is Microsoft Azure AD. When I make an API call using client.oauthXhr I get redirected to the Microsoft login page where I provide my credentials which then redirects me to the redirection url for my extension. However I then get an error 500 with the following message: This exception has been logged with id 81k4n3m13. Any ideas? I have successfully setup a Google oauth provider as described in the Lucid API guide but I need it to work for Azure AD. Thanks.

Hi everyone I was able to get the Lucidchart API to work to get the information of a user but when I checked the response it does not give us the active/inactive status of the user. But I can see that on Lucidchart console. Is their any other API that I am missing if yes please help me with the same.

I want to implement my dataConnector and post some custom data(like object with array of object as a field in it):  class MyClass {     id:number;     name:string;     subItems: SubItem[] }  class SubItem {    id:number;     name:string;  }   Maybe you have some examples how to do this because some examples from documentation I guess are out of date.

I am looking for a UI Design tool to begin building the next part of my project.   This will be a mock-up for a user interface for a game I am building

I am trying to use Singer and Meltano—external ELT tools—to create an integration with LucidChart's API. This integration would allow for data to be pulled from a user's LucidChart account to populate a database or other storage medium. However I am running into an issue with the way LucidChart handles refresh tokens. As I understand it when I use the offline_access scope to have the user generate a refresh token I can then use this refresh token to request an access token any time within the next six months. However when I do so I also generate a new refresh token and invalidate the previous one. This makes my use case very difficult as I might potentially have multiple processes running at once attempting to use the LucidChart API. Awkward race conditions occur where one process attempts to use a refresh token that has been invalidated by another process. Is there any way around this difficulty? Is there any way to generate an access token without invalidating the refresh token that

Hello there!We’re excited to show you how to transform a folder of image files into a Lucidchart shape library. This will bring a new level of customization to your Lucid documents and can be done in less than ten minutes.  When you complete the instructions you’ll have an extension package (basically a folder with a bunch of formatted files). The next section in this guide describes how to distribute this extension package (e.g. actually make it usable in Lucid for the users you want). Before you begin you’ll need node.js installed to download the Lucid SDK. As described in the Extension API documentation the CLI command to download the Lucid SDK is npm install lucid-package.  If you’ve already installed the Lucid SDK you will need to update it to at least version 0.0.58 which was released on March 29 2023. You can see what version you have by using the npm status command. Updating NPM packages can typically be done by using the npm update command. Currently only JPG PNG and SVG files

Hi All  I'm trying to generate a code via POSTMAN to generate an API token but I'm receiving a connecting error after the pop-up login page.When I'm doing it manually through the browser I'm able to get the code but I can't make it automatically.Is the code something temporary just for the first token generation or I will have to generate a new code every one or two hours?Does anyone have any experience with that and can assist here? Thanks!

I'm considering linking / integrating our LucidChart into our Asana software. I read all your info on integration but what I don't seem to see is if this will give everyone access to change my LucidChart document. I definitely don't want to lose control of the document - we want limited access to change it - but I'd like our community within Asana to be able to access it and possibly print it. Can someone help here? Thank you Cindy

I was looking through the API documentation for LucidChart and I see a get group create group collaborator and delete group collaborator. But what I really want is to create a Group with an API call.  Here's the manual way:https://help.lucid.co/hc/en-us/articles/360049892711-The-Admin-Panel-Group-Management 

Greetings to Team Lucid Chart ! I'm Harsha would love to create an integration for Lucid Chart with Zoho Cliq. Would be glad to get assistance regarding this !

Hi Team   Below url not working https://lucid.app/oauth2/clients/{client id}/redirect Getting We couldn't find the page you're looking for.

Hi my name is Julio Revilla Clinical Development Manager at Suvida Healthcare. Lucid has helped me and my team to improve ideation brainstorming and presentations.

Hi! My name is Ian Baenziger and I’m Lucid’s lead Product Manager for our APIs. Pleasure to e-meet you! 👋We are VERY excited to launch the Developer section of our Community. In this section the developers actually building Lucid’s APIs will be available to answer your most technical questions. Furthermore here we plan to announce new endpoints tools and guides to help developers have the best possible experience developing on Lucid’s APIs. We’ll also post helpful tips for using our APIsSo feel free to let us know what’s on your mind! Do you have a question about how to use our APIs? Is something not working the way you expected? Are there additional ways we can help you have a positive experience? We’re all ears. 😀 To post a question of your own use the Create a topic form linked here or at the top of any Community page and choose “Lucid for Developers” as the topic to add it to this section.Thank you and we’re excited to hear from you!

Hello I'm looking at this page and just wanting to confirm my understanding of the following paragraph: "Authorization must happen in the browser because a user must give consent for the client to access their information. For this reason the authorization request cannot be made from Postman curl or some other HTTP client." Is there really no way to access the API programmatically? Thank you!

Hello World! My name is Michael Bowers and I am the team lead for Lucid’s External Api team. I am extremely excited to begin building our community and work directly with you to enable Lucid to help take your vision to the next level. To do that I would like to start with our most asked question: Developers exploring our APIs often say to us “An OAuth token is required to use your endpoints and a user needs to manually authorize the creation of this token via a browser. These tokens expire every hour… is there a way to build a long-living application on your API that doesn’t require a user/manual intervention every hour?”. Good news. There is a way! With our APIs you can build an application that requires user intervention just once and can then run forever without any further user action by generating refresh tokens. This can be done by requesting the offline_access scope when obtaining the initial OAuth token. Including this scope will cause a refresh token to be provided in the Crea

I'd like to create a button on the master page that would take the viewer to the "last page viewed". This is an important element in building a dynamic multi-page document that can be navigated effortlessly. The "Page" action is useful to a point but it does not offer the ability to "remember" where the user "came from". Often a "destination" page may be viewed from several different starting points. It makes sense that the "starting point" could be captured as a variable and used in an action to "return to the previous page". If this is not already built into LucidChart can LucidChart be scripted using Javascript?

Is there a way to show a dynamic list of attributes within an object? For example consider the following objects described by 2 different models belonging to 2 different teams:   "Box" "Box"ID (id) ID (id)Label (string) Recipient (string)Contents (list:Contents) Address 1 (string) Address 2 (string) City (string) State (string) ZIP (int)   Is there a way to put each "Box" object on a separate layer but have the "Box" object look as follows when both layers are selected?   "Box"ID (id)Label (string)Contents (list:Contents)Recipient (string)Address 1 (string)Address 2 (string)City (string)State (string)ZIP (int)   I'm looking for a solution where each of my 2 teams only have to edit their own version (layer?) of the object and have the combined list
