I am trying to automate the creating of the flowchart in Lucidchart using a step by step procedure using shape library as BPMN 2.0. Since BPMN2.0 does not provide change shape feature. Wanted to understand if there is any other way to automate the process
Can you use the Advanced Shape Options to do this?
They change the rectangle borders and add markers.

Thanks Tim, However I am trying to generate workflow using AI capability, but having shapes as BPMN v2.0 library in an automated manner.

Hi, I guess currently creating BPMN 2.0 business process diagrams with the AI option “Generate diagrams” is not possible
Hi
Thank you for the reply! If you got to generate a diagram then create a new preset, you should have the option to choose a diagram type. There is the option to create a BPMN 2.0 conversion diagram and BPMN 2.0 choreography diagram. Both options utilize the BPMN 2.0 shape library. Hope this helps!

Hi Kelsey
I have a follow up question on that.
It seems like when using the AI that it always generates BPMN 2.0 choreography diagrams or Flowcharts.
What should i type if a want a “simple” (task) Activity from the BPMN 2.0 template library?
And the shapes “Transaction” and “Call activity”?
And furthermore is it possible to set “Advanced options” such as
Activity
Task Types
Activity Maker
Secondary Maker
Directly from the promt?
I tried, but i always end up as a choreography or a Flowchart shape.
Hi
Thanks for your help and please let us know if you have any questions!


I want to be able to create “Activity”-blocks, with the activity set to “Task” as a minimum.
and maybe even being able to set the “Call Activity”.
Further more setting the “Task Type” to the different types such as “Service”, “Recieve” e.g.
And maybe being able to set the Activity Marker 1 to “Subprocess”
My goal is to firstly just to create the “Activity” blocks from the BPMN 2.0 library template instead of “Cheorography” blocks.
Then i can move them to the correct (manually) created swimlanes and connect the blocks manually with each other.
In the long run, i would like to be able to autocreate the whole process including connections and swimlanes with roles and system using an excel sheet or simply prompting correctly in Lucid Chart.
