Hello,
I was wondering how should I go about citing my conversation with Lucid AI if I am using it to create a diagram. I am required to use APA format, but I can’t seem to find any guidelines on how to do it.
Answer
How do I cite Lucid AI using APA format?

Hi, Ldrogosz! APA has a really helpful blog with examples: Citing generative AI in APA Style: Part 1—Reference formats
Since I don’t think Lucid titles conversations, I assume you would use “Citing an AI tool generally” references, but you can check with whoever is requiring it (instructor, publisher, etc.) to see if they have additional expectations (some may require disclosing prompts).

Thank you
If you created the document you would like to use yourself, then you are the owner of the diagram and can use it however you would like. Others who have used diagrams in books or publications have cited the diagram image with, "Created in Lucid (lucid.co)". We encourage you to do this as well, but it is not required as you own the work you created in Lucidchart.
If you would like to use a template we created, you may reference us with the following citation: Created in Lucid (lucid.co)
If you would like to reference an article or webpage we wrote, you may reference us like this: “Article name.” Link to asset
- For example: “How to Use Value Stream Mapping in DevOps.” www.lucidchart.com/blog/value-stream-mapping-for-devops
We also ask that you reference/cite any product screenshots as “Lucid, lucid.co”, or other wording that references both our full brand name and our website.
Please let me know if you have any further questions.
