I am teaching an online business/tech class and I have created an ERD diagram without keys and links. I want to send a copy to my students so they can add the relationships and submit an exported PDF to an assignment. This is not collaboration because each student needs a copy of the ERD with which to do their work.

I see it as these steps

export the unfinished ERD diagram from Lucidchart to a file
distribute the file to my students
student imports/opens the file in Lucidchart
student completes the relationships identifying primary and foreign keys
student exports the diagram to PDF
student submits the PDF to the LMS.

Hi Paul

Thank you for posting in the Lucid Community! An idea here: You could share the URL of the file with your students and have them create a duplicate of the document. This will allow them to be the owner of the copy and they can change the diagram how they would see fit. To make a duplicate they just need to click File > Duplicate.

Hope this helps -- please let me know if you have any other questions! Cheers 🍻
