Hi i thanks for posting in the community! Our org chart feature allows you to import a dataset to automatically create an org chart. We support the following import methods so you can import an Excel Sheet to create this! 

For more information about this feature I recommend taking a look at our Create an org chart article from the Help Center!

Hope this helps. Feel free to let us know if you have any questions. Cheers! :)

I have imported from Excel into an organizational chart but now I want to edit the data manually.  Is there a way to change to a manual chart now and no longer use the organizational chart setup?

Hi @source103! While it is not possible to edit the imported data linked to your org chart, you can always manually edit the shapes in your org charts, including the content and position in the org chart. Hope this helps!

Hello!  Because 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.

 Writing with exciting news - the two-way Excel sync that Jimmy mentioned above is now available to all users in a public beta test! We’re still actively working on it and making improvements, so we’d love to hear your feedback. Learn more in this thread:
