Hi folks,

I’m teaching a variety of courses for which student (educational) use of Lucid.app on the Web provides some great capabilities at zero cost to students and teachers -- thank you!

But … I would like to find the easiest way to safely and securely have students or teachers create a chart via lucid.app, save it (so it has a date/time stamp for provenance), share that version of their chart with others, and the shared-with person is then able to download, save, and then open a copy of that chart in lucidchart or lucid.app, and see all notes, comments, links, and so on.

How do we do this?

(Is this someplace in the “how to” documentation and it’s just not showing up on my search?)

 

RELATED to this: I just now realized that when I go to https://lucid.app, it actually takes me to https://lucid.app/lucidspark.  So I guess this is a LucidSpark product question?

 

thanks!

Hi ​@notonyourtintype

Thank you for posting in the Lucid Community! I would recommend doing one of the following: 

  • Have the student or teacher create an document and add “editNew” to the link. When another user clicks on this link, it will copy all of the content but create a new document for the user. More information on how to do this can be found here.
  • Create a custom template, once this is shared out, a user can duplicate the template for their own use. More instructions on how to do this can be found here.

Please note that comments will not be transferred to any copy of a document, but notes will.
