I believe I found the issue where data was not originally imported using a key. It would be nice if lucidchart would create a key and expose it. The table row and shape reference should use this instead if data wasnt uploaded with a key.

Hi @prichardson 

This article explains how to make use of the Refresh or Replace Dataset feature and see if this helps at this time for your use case.

Data Linking: Replace vs. Refresh your data set in Lucidchart | Community

We also look forward to hearing from other community members and associates, who may have alternative suggestions that could better address your requirements.

Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!
Thank you very much and have a great one!
Warm regards

Hi @prichardson, 

Thank you for your post! You are correct, if you delete a property in the custom data of the shape, the property’s title will not adjust. To add to Humas’s comment, you can connect data yourself through data linking, however, data linking is an Enterprise only feature. 

If you would like for a key to be created with manually added data, I would recommend posting this as an idea in our Product Feedback section.
