In Lucidchart's ongoing quest for innovation and improvements for our software, learn more about enhanced sharing with folders, Microsoft Visio export and a Confluence plugin!

Sharing just got easier

While Lucidchart allows the ability to create folders for improved document management, you can take this one step further with the ability to share documents and entire folders directly from your Documents list. While we’re confident this is an intuitive feature, here are some quick highlights: Folder sharing All Users

If you are the owner of a document or folder, you can invite/remove others using the +/- buttons under Sharing & Permissions
Sharing a folder will automatically share all documents contained within

Team Users

Share with your entire team by selecting the team name in the sharing dialog
Team members’ names are shown in the sharing dialog for quick selection
Team admins can organize users into subgroups for sharing by going to the “Team” tab (ideal for large teams)

Sharing prompt

Visio export

Lucidchart became the first web-based application to import documents from Microsoft Visio. We are happy to continue this leadership with our Visio export feature! To export a Lucidchart document in Visio’s .vdx format:

Open the Lucidchart document
Select the “Download as...” option from the menu
Choose “Visio (.vdx)” and click Download
Wait for the document to download

EXPLORE VISIO EXPORT

If you export a Visio file and see something that’s not quite right, please send us feedback.

Because this is a premium feature, it is only available to Pro and Team accounts. Please consider upgrading if you would like to try it and are currently on a different account level.

Lucidchart for Confluence

Confluence is a leading enterprise collaboration and wiki software that is used by thousands of companies around the world. The Lucidchart plugin for Confluence allows you to create new diagrams, insert existing diagrams from your Lucidchart account, or even import Microsoft Visio documents. This plugin is available at no additional cost for Lucidchart Team accounts. If your company uses Confluence, we’d encourage you to:
