Hi ​@Jachow, thank you for your post! That is indeed possible with Lucid using the Google Docs add-on or the Microsoft Word add-in.

If you export a Google Doc as a Word file, the inserted diagram will appear as an image in the file. There is also an option to click ‘Update images’ to reflect any changes that were made to your Lucidchart document without needing to reinsert.

You mentioned you are seeing an error when trying the add-on, would you mind sharing a screenshot of the error? If you haven’t already I would recommend trying the add-on in a private or incognito window to see if that helps improve the experience. 

I hope this helps! Feel free to let us know if you have any questions. 

Hi Leianne, 

Thanks for getting back to me with such an informative response!

I’ve attempted to use an incognito window and no joy, i’m getting the same error: 

Is it perhaps something to do with the permissions for Lucid and my companies set up with the Google suite??

Thanks again!

Hi ​@Jachow, thanks for sharing the screenshot! Would you mind enabling 3rd party cookies and then trying again? Please take a look at this article for information on how to do this.

If that doesn’t work I would recommend revoking Lucidchart's access to your Google account and re-authenticating. Look for the application titled ‘Lucidchart’ with the orange logo. You can find more information about this in this article from Google. 
 

Hope this helps. Please let me know you still experience trouble with this or if you have any questions!
