Force Copy

Is there a feature to be able to force copy a lucid document? With Jamboard going away I lose the capability to have a copy for each of my students. I know that if I do it in a canvas LTI, it will make a copy but on some assignments, I already have an LTI selected and need to be able to force a copy without going through the external tool feature. If this isn't already a capability, I would strongly suggest it be added. Losing this service would be pretty detrimental.

YAY!  It worked!!  It doesn’t say ‘opening a copy’ or anything like other programs do.  When I started this, I said I tried with both the capital N and the lowercase n… it didn’t seem to make a difference for me.  Who knows!  

Last thing to check would be to obviously share the link with a good kid before trying it in class with everyone, just to make sure!

Yay yay yay!!

I have found the same with my kids (K-5) - I struggle with something and then when I get it to work, it’s really cool.  Lucid is SO deep, but once you figure things out, it has some really great things for education.  :)

I do have one itty bitty question you could take a look at because I’m sure you’re not busy or anything 😉 https://www.loom.com/share/c35f3e92c2a34f07a6f9aec558ea777f?sid=6c3b9591-e898-470c-b2cf-0fe27ff72fac

@Ellery Goudy I haven’t seen this error before - let me reach out to our product team and see what I can find out.

@Ellery Goudy Here is what I found out: 
“This error is because the district administrators have restrictions on what their domain can connect to and install. A Google admin on the account needs to add the Lucid application to the allow list, otherwise users on that Google account will not be able to use the import tool.”

Please let me know if you have any additional questions!
