How can I share documents with others who do not want to sign up for a free account?

Hi 

I would like to share documents with others so they can comment. But as it turns out I have several clients who do not want to sign up for a free account (due to company policies e.g.). Is there a way to share and collaborate without the other party having to sign up for a free account?

Thanks!

    Hi Han 

    Thanks for posting in the community! In this situation I would recommend one of the following:

    • Exporting your document to another file format such as PDF or JPEG which you can then share
    • Using one of our add-ons such as Google Docs to insert your diagram into another collaborative platform
    • Publishing your document to a Lucidchart webpage or PDF or embedding your diagram in a website for others to view

     

    Hope this helps!

    Lucidchart please add anonymous commenting support to View mode.

    My clients and occasional collaborators don't want to create an account.

    This is a killer feature that many of us want.
