This post details the latest updates across the Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite, which includes Lucidchart and Lucidspark. The Lucid Suite provides an end-to-end platform for visual collaboration, helping your teams to stay aligned, build, and drive results from start to finish. We've designed this page to be your primary resource for staying informed about all the new product releases, features, and improvements we've made.

Team types
Team types give Lucid users more control over team visibility and access. Users can create open, closed, and hidden teams. Learn more.
- Open teams will be fully accessible, allowing anyone in the organization to find and join the team directly from the all teams page on the docs list.
- Closed teams will appear on the all teams page but joining requires approval from an existing member of the team.
- Hidden teams will not be visible on the all teams page, and the only way to join is through an invitation from an existing team member.
Team notifications
Users can now tag a team in a comment and the entire team will receive a notification of the tag. This helps alert teams and bring them into relevant conversations without having to tag individuals.
Slack integration enhancements
Now, when creating a team hub in Lucid, you no longer need to add members one by one. Instead, if you have Lucid’s Slack integration enabled, type the name of a Slack channel that includes the people you want to add to your team hub. Once selected, you’ll be able to review the list of members to ensure it's exactly what you need before creating your new team. Learn more.
Pin external documents in team hub
You can now add external documents to a team hub. This allows for all critical team information to be stored in one location. Learn more.
Expand Frames functionality
Users can now expand Frames with additional expand functionality. When using our expand cursor within a frame, it will only expand the contents of that frame.
Lucid field mapping
Users can tag data with Lucid fields and distinguish between start dates, end dates, assignees, and more.
- Map your dataset columns to Lucid card fields and customize the information on the card face.
- Map Lucid fields to data, then link data to shapes to organize them in Dynamic Tables.
- Map "start date" and "end date" to data and pull things into a timeline.
- Use AI to suggest recommended mappings based on your dataset. Learn more.
