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

Hi ​@ruchikasinghal and ​@GosiaEsEL

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 ​@MortenHL, thank you for your patience as I looked into this. Our development team shared that the current workaround is to ask specifically for a "BPMN conversation" diagram. Please note that it is not currently possible to customize anything with the activity blocks used in conversation diagrams, however, it should help to create “Activity”-blocks, with the activity set to “Task”. I’ve included an example screenshot below: 

 

Hope this helps. Please feel free to let us know if you have any questions!

Hi Leianne 
Thank you for the suggestion.
Yeah i tried prompting earlier and got the “BPMN Conversation”-diagram. 
​But that is just another sort of hassle ;) 
I think i will wait and see, if we in the long run gets an option to “just” generate a set of “Activity”-blocks, without having them connected, but maybe placed in swimlanes.
