+2For the entire org chart, is there a way to apply different coloring/sizing style based on specific data that was imported for the chart?
For example, those at VP level are larger and colored green and those a level below are colored orange and slightly smaller, etc. Make it dynamic based on when the data is refreshed?
Very new to Lucidchart, so just seeing what options there are OOTB. (Or even with custom scripting if necessary)

Hi
Lucidchart offers various options to dynamically format your org chart based on imported data. You can explore out-of-the-box (OOTB) options like data linking, which allows you to connect your org chart to a data source like Google Sheets, ensuring updates are reflected in your diagram. Conditional formatting rules can also be applied to change shape appearances based on data, such as coloring VP-level shapes green and others orange.
Additionally, dynamic shapes can be used to change their appearance based on linked data. If these options don't meet your needs, custom scripting via the Lucidchart API can be used to achieve more complex formatting, but requires programming knowledge.

It sounds like you’re also interested in controlling the size of the shape based on data associated with it. This isn’t available out of the box, but the team in Lucid for Developers might have suggestions here to do so via API as
