Trying to utilize this WBS template in my project. It supports data linking i.e. the ability to import data from an excel csv into the template. Whenever I import the data the resulting chart gets messed up and doesn't align with the hierarchy in the excel sheet. Any clues what's wrong?

Link to the used template below:

I know this is an old thread but if you are still using Excel as part of your workflows, I wanted to let you know that we are actively developing an Excel integration with Lucidchart. This feature will allow you to import spreadsheets from Office 365 business accounts, and have 2-way syncing between Lucid and your Excel spreadsheet.

If you (or anyone reading this) is interested, shoot me a DM. I can get you onboarded to our Excel beta. We’re actively looking for testers that can provide feedback and feature requests for this new capability.

Writing with exciting news - the two-way Excel sync that Jimmy mentioned above is now available to all users in a public beta test! We’re still actively working on it and making improvements, so we’d love to hear your feedback. Learn more in this thread:
