Hi Nicole thanks for your post! Unfortunately Lucidchart doesn't directly support diagram builds from Mermaid. If you're able to use UML markup instead I would recommend our UML markup tool which will automatically generate a sequence diagram based on your input. I hope this helps! If you'd like to share more detail about your use case for Mermaid specifically we'd love to hear your feedback in this thread. 

Hi @Nicole L!  Have you seen our recently released Lucid GPT feature? Check it out here: https://help.lucid.co/hc/en-us/articles/18974741074708-Create-AI-generated-diagrams-using-the-Lucid-GPT

In addition, I am on the product team here at Lucid and am actively investigating some features that may further help your use case. If you’d be interested in meeting with me to discuss, I’d love to learn from you! Let me know if you’re up for it and we can send more info to the email associated with your account. Thanks!

I am excited to share that Lucid has released the ability to create a diagram using mermaid code syntax! We support 8 different diagram types including: flowchart, sequence, class, state, C4, gantt, and entity relationship diagrams. Try it out for yourself or learn more here! 

Thanks @Darbie! This is fantastic.

I successfully create a sequence diagram using mermaid code syntax. I however cannot use this in google docs using lucid extension. I exported to jpeg and used for now. Is there any timeline to make lucid extension work too?

Hi @Tej, 

Currently we don’t have a timeline for Mermaid code to be available in the Google docs extension. 

However,  we’re very interested in your feedback and committed to continually improving our products, we invite you to share your idea in our Product Feedback section.

I wanted to convert a mermaid diagram into a Lucid Diagram and found your post to do this via ChatGPT Lucid Agent.  This is a bit clunky, but it works!  Much better than having to start from scratch and interpret mermaid diagrams by hand.   Hopefully the Lucid GPT agent will be integrated into the Lucid native AI interface.  Thanks for the tip!!
