Use cases

Mermaid chart generates syntax error for valid mermaid code. This is consistently happening with code generated and valid for other mermaid diagram generators. 

There is a bug in how Lucid is handling mermaid. Example: flowchart TDListener -- call --> Dispatcher it will cause a syntax error. The code runs fine in mermaid editor and typora. Seems it doesn’t like the word “call” there.  

Not so much important but I noticed a mistake in the documentation here:https://developer.lucid.co/reference/listusersThe result is describe like that:[ { "accountId": 100, "email": "john-doe@example.com", "name": "John Doe", "userId": 101, "usernames": "johndoe", "roles": [ "billing-admin", "team-admin" ] }]But the “usernames” field is “username”.so it would be :[ { "accountId": 100, "email": "john-doe@example.com", "name": "John Doe", "userId": 101, "username": "johndoe", "roles": [ "billing-admin", "team-admin" ] }]Regards

If my extension editor has create a DataSource, is there a way for it to delete it as well? Here is the documentation URLs that I looked for a delete method in:https://developer.lucid.co/reference/dataproxy-sdk https://developer.lucid.co/reference/datasourceproxy-sdk https://developer.lucid.co/reference/collectionproxy-sdk https://developer.lucid.co/reference/dataitemproxy-sdkThanks,Dan

Hi, I am working on a integration and want to know below queries.Under which plan will I have APIs access, so that I can perform integration? If I purchase the plan with API access, then are there any API usage limits? Which plan does have unlimited API usage plans?Let me know if anyone can help or refer me to documentation which all these details.Thanks

I am trying to find a list of all the valid shape types.  The documentation here is no help.I am trying to import a ‘ERDEntityBlock3’ but I get an error saying it is not a valid type.  So what are the valid ones?  I’m looking for something resembling a table that I can use to diagram DB relationships.

I’m trying to create a data connector for getting the documents associated to an account using this endpoint:https://api.lucid.co/accounts/me/documents/searchBut I get a 403 error, so the performDataAction is not fired. Please, what could be wrong?Extension registered action code: client.registerAction("getAccountDocumentlist", async () => { const triggerOauth = await client.oauthXhr("lucid", { url: "https://api.lucid.co/accounts/me/documents/search", headers: { "Lucid-Api-Version": "1", "Content-Type": "application/json", }, data: "{}", method: "POST", }); console.log("triggerOauth", triggerOauth); const result = await client.performDataAction({ dataConnectorName: "dataconnector", actionName: "GetAccountDocumentList", actionData: { message: "GetAccountDocuments" }, as

I am surprised about how you need to set the patch items of an update for making the update runs without error.I write a dataconnector for retrieving document list and  Initially I used this code for the key to the patch without success:itemsPatch.set( apiDocument.documentId, convertToDocument(apiDocument as ApiDocument), )Full code:export const getDocumentListAction = async (action: DataConnectorAsynchronousAction) => { const apiDocuments = await searchDocuments(action.context.userCredential); const itemsPatch = new Map<string, SerializedFields>(); var i = 0; apiDocuments?.forEach((apiDocument) => { itemsPatch.set( apiDocument.documentId, convertToDocument(apiDocument as ApiDocument), ); }); if (apiDocuments) { action.client .update({ dataSourceName: "Lucid", collections: {

✅ Edit: This issue has been fixed. ✅Hey Lucid Developers,Our API documentation at developer.lucid.co is currently unavailable due to a ReadMe outage. Since our documentation is hosted on ReadMe, we’re unable to resolve this directly but are monitoring the situation.You can track updates on ReadMe’s status page here: https://www.readmestatus.com/We're expecting the documentation to be back up by the end of the day. Thanks for your patience, and we’re here to help—drop any questions below!Apologies for the inconvenience.

First time user here.  I’m just trying to get a basic api call to create a shape for me.  A ‘hello world’, so to speak.What I have done:1. Created document.json2. Zipped it into a file.3. Referenced file in Postman API requestDocument is created in lucidchart, but there is nothing in it.here is my document.json: {   "version":1,          "title": "Hello World",          "product": "lucidchart",          "pages": [            {              "id": "page1",              "title": "Main page",              "shapes": [                {                  "id":"shape1",                 "type":"rectangle",                 "text":"hello",                 "boundingBox":{                    "x": 50,                    "y": 30,                    "w": 100,                    "h": 150                  }                }

According to the documentation, “https://api.lucid.co/documents/search” endpoint gives the result:  "documentId": "110808fd-4553-4316-bccf-4f25ff59a532",  "title": "document title",  "editUrl": "https://lucid.app/lucidchart/110808fd-4553-4316-bccf-4f25ff59a532/edit",  "viewUrl": "https://lucid.app/lucidchart/110808fd-4553-4316-bccf-4f25ff59a532/view",  "version": 101,  "pageCount": 5,  "canEdit": false,  "created": "2019-04-22T13:47:23Z",  "creatorId": 12345,  "lastModified": "2020-06-26T16:29:37Z",  "lastModifiedUserId": 54321,  "customAttributes": [],  "customTags": [    "in progress"  ],  "product": "lucidchart",  "status": "Complete",  "classification": "Private",  "trashed": null,  "parent": null,  "owner": {    "id": 123456,    "type":

Creating a dataconnector for retrieving document list, the only way I found is to define an array is to use a declaration field as any:... { name: "customAttributes", type: ScalarFieldTypeEnum.ANY, }, { name: "customTags", type: ScalarFieldTypeEnum.ANY, },which  IMHO is not good I would like to use things like  { name: "customAttributes", type: []ScalarFieldTypeEnum.STRING, }, { name: "customTags", type: []ScalarFieldTypeEnum.STRING, },Any suggestions?Best regards.

Hello Guys,Is there a way to retrieve the size of a document using Rest API.The size is currently available manually from the “Details” panel windows displayed using “Show Detail” context menu command on a document.Best regards.

I have followed the instructions herehttps://lucid.readme.io/reference/obtaining-an-access-tokenand herehttps://lucid.readme.io/docs/api-keys but it is not working.  I keep geting a 403 unauthorized error.  There is also something on the apikey page saying ‘view only’.  This ‘view only’ is not mentioned in any instructions.  I have tried searching for this ‘view only’ issue but have not found any matches.  Ps. I can read using the API, but cannot write/create.Anyone have any ideas?  

Any chance to keep Lucidchart sessions alive longer?Whenever I open a new window I need to log on again. Would be great to skip that process and save time.

Hi friends,I work as a major gifts fundraiser for a nonprofit and manage a portfolio of about 150 donors. I’ve got them all in a database, as well as a spreadsheet, but I need to be able to visualize and organize them in various groupings based on a few different datapoints. I’m not sure which template I should use but I’d love ideas from this community. Here are the details of what I need:Visually organize and color-code donors based on:  Geographic location Interests in different areas of the nonprofit’s programmatic work. They may have one singular interest or may have multiple interests.  3 levels of engagement: A, B, and C I’d like to be able to drag and drop or easily change color/shape if a donor moved from Boston to Atlanta, for example. I’d also be able to switch views so I can see, for example, all donors with interest in education, or all A-level donors, or all Massachusetts donors. If at

Hola comunidad, actualmente estoy llamando a la API /documents/{docId}/contents para obtener los Metadatos del documento y utilizarlos en un desarrollo de mi empresa. Muchos de los documentos dan 200, pero hay algunos que me dan un error 500 con el mensaje "An unknown error occurred", lo extraño es que si hago una copia de este documento, sin cambiar su contenido, con el nuevo id del documento, funciona normalmente. Entonces mis preguntas son: ¿Cuáles son las razones por las cuales puede ocurrir este error? y ¿Si puedo mitigarlo de alguna manera?  y ¿Por qué no se detalla este error en la documentación? 

Really struggling with the import API.  I’m getting the oAuth2 tokens successfully, able to create documents just fine, but they don’t have anything in them even though i’m sending off json for creation.  Trying to mimic the jira to Lucid as closely as possible, but it’s not working out.  Logs indicate success, but that’s because the documents are getting created.My log:Create Document Response: {  documentId: '369afc52-f1f2-41ee-be08-fd63581fe00f',  title: 'Updated Test Document with Shapes',  editUrl: 'https://lucid.app/lucidchart/xxxxx/edit',  viewUrl: 'https://lucid.app/lucidchart/xxxxx/view',  version: 110,  pageCount: 1,  canEdit: true,  creatorId: 136597754,  lastModified: '2024-09-23T14:50:45Z',  lastModifiedUserId: 136597754,  trashed: null,  status: 'Draft',  classification: null,  customAttributes: [],  customTags: [],  parent: 383364222,  product: 'luci

I am exploring the example shapes in the sample library https://github.com/lucidsoftware/sample-lucid-extensions/tree/main/example-shape-library. I have the developer tools in lucid enabled and ran the test-shape-libraries command to run the local server. However I am seeing a lot of network errors in the console causing the example not to load. I don’t have any browser plugins enabled or add blockers. Not sure what is causing this. I’ve used Safari, Chrome and Brave and get the same result.
