Hi team,

Photo Upload does not work anymore for me. I am able to select the field and also the files to upload. But it finally does not upload or react to any file I choose.

It worked with no issues two weeks ago.

Hi ​@omar 

Thanks for reaching out!  Since photo upload was working previously but is now unresponsive, let’s try a few troubleshooting steps to resolve it:

1️⃣ Check Your Browser & Network

  • Clear Cache & Cookies – Sometimes, stored data can interfere with file uploads. Try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies.
  • Try a Different Browser – If you’re using Chrome, try Edge or Firefox to see if the issue persists.
  • Disable Browser Extensions – Some ad blockers or security extensions may prevent file uploads.

2️⃣ Confirm File Format & Size

  • Ensure your photo format is supported (JPEG, PNG, SVG).
  • Check that the file size does not exceed upload limits.

3️⃣ Test in Incognito Mode

  • Open a private/incognito window and try uploading the file again.

4️⃣ Check for Updates & Permissions

  • Ensure your Lucidchart version is up to date.
  • If using a work network or VPN, try switching to a personal network, as firewall settings may block uploads.

5️⃣ Report & Next Steps

If the issue persists, could you let me know:

  • Are you seeing any error messages or just no response?
  • Does this happen across multiple files or just one?
  • Are you on a company-managed device or personal device?

If none of the above steps work, you may need to escalate this to the support team for further investigation here: Submit a request – Lucid.

I hope this this helps!


Hi Ria - I filled a ticket, as the steps did not help. I checked on Safari - and I never used LucidChart on Safari so far - and it did not work either.


Hi ​@omar, thank you for submitting a ticket. Our product support team will get you taken care of from there. The team works through tickets in the order they are received, and you can expect a quick response to your email associated with your Lucid account.
