Hi Akshay 

Thanks for posting in the community! For data linking to function correctly in Lucidchart you'll need to make sure your import file is formatted correctly according to your use case. As a first step, please review our articles on Linking data to a Lucidchart diagram and Process Diagram Import from CSV to verify that your excel file is formatted correctly. Also, you're able to download and import an example CSV file of a Process Diagram in the Lucidchart editor through File > Import Data > Process Diagram > Download Example CSV. You might find this helpful in seeing how Lucidchart views relationships between shapes. If you have further questions after reviewing these items, please let us know!

Hi, Akshay! Since you’re working with Excel files 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.
