LATELY @ LUCID: NEW CAPABILITIES FOR SPRING 2024

Reading time: about 6 min

Topics:

 * Lucid updates

At Lucid, we’re continuously improving our products so teams like yours can see
and build the future. With that in mind, we’re rounding up the latest and
greatest Lucid capabilities that you can start using today!

For this edition of Lately @ Lucid, we’ve focused on teams. The team is at the
center of work and pivotal to a company’s success—when teams are disconnected,
innovation halts. We’re reimagining how teams collaborate within Lucid so they
can coordinate, align, and build across entire workflows. 

Take a look at all the new updates available to you and your team! 

Note: The availability of the features mentioned in this post depends on your
account type and region. Learn more.

 * Team hubs

 * Touchscreen whiteboards

 * Microsoft 365 Copilot plugin

 * Generate a diagram with AI

 * Slack AI integration

 * Mind maps + AI

 * Quick diagramming

 * Quick shape banks and quick actions

 * Visual Activities innovations

 * Developer platform enhancements


COORDINATE



We are bringing teams together into a shared space with centralized resources so
team members can see updates and progress, initiate and discuss work, and make
decisions faster. That brings us to our first feature announcement: a new team
experience. The new experience includes team hubs, an updated logged-in
homepage, team documents, and team spaces.




TEAM HUBS

Team hubs are where you’ll find your team members, team space, and team
documentation. Create documents that are automatically shared with the entire
team and centralize shared documents, workflows, and projects to provide a
one-stop shop for team coordination.

We launched team spaces last year, and they’re here to stay! Within the team
hub, you can pin a team space that serves as your home base for coordination.
Existing team spaces will move to Lucidspark so your team can take advantage of
all Lucidspark functionality as you work together, such as breakout boards,
voting, facilitator tools, and more.

Try out the updated teams experience.

Go now

We’ve also updated the logged-in homepage to center around your teams. Create
teams within Lucid to share documents and information faster and start
collaborating with the right people. Easily navigate between teams by pinning
them to the left-hand navigation or accessing all your teams on your “My teams”
page.

This new team experience is available for Enterprise accounts.

TOUCHSCREEN WHITEBOARDS

With new integrations, Lucid users can work on Lucidspark boards on large
touchscreen devices through Google Meet, Zoom, and Webex to improve
collaboration between in-person and remote team members.


ALIGN



We’re helping teams jump-start their work through intelligence and making it
easier to visualize concepts and share context that keeps everyone aligned. Take
a look at all our new features focused on improving team alignment! 





MICROSOFT 365 COPILOT PLUGIN



Within Microsoft 365 Copilot, users can retrieve Lucid documents, plus get an
AI-generated summary of a document, saving time and streamlining workflows.

And we’re continuing to invest in our integration with Copilot—our future plans
will allow users to auto-generate new Lucid diagrams directly in Copilot and
then edit them in Lucid.

Learn more about connecting Lucid with Microsoft 365 Copilot.

GENERATE A DIAGRAM WITH AI



Auto-generate a flowchart, sequence diagram, class diagram, or entity
relationship diagram using AI within Lucidchart by typing in a prompt. From
there, you can use AI prompts to continue iterating on the diagram until you
have the exact visual you need. Visualize complex data faster.

Get started generating a diagram.

SLACK AI INTEGRATION

Now when you share Lucid documents in Slack (with the Lucidspark and Lucidchart
Slack integrations installed), you can use Lucid’s AI capabilities to quickly
summarize the document right in the Slack channel.

Connect Lucid and Slack.

MIND MAPS + AI



When you create mind maps in Lucid using the mind map tool, Collaborative AI can
help you build out your mind map quickly by suggesting other ideas and questions
to add. Once you’ve added all your ideas, you can use Collaborative AI to
summarize your mind map.

Get more information about creating mind maps with Collaborative AI.

QUICK DIAGRAMMING

Start diagramming faster than ever before with intuitive tools right on the
Lucidchart canvas. From quick shape changes to automatic branching, you can
build out powerful diagrams in a few clicks.

See all quick diagramming features.

QUICK SHAPE BANKS AND QUICK ACTIONS

Like quick diagramming, quick shape banks and quick actions make it easy to
jump-start work in Lucid. Quick shape banks are groups of sticky notes,
stickers, and more embedded directly in the canvas, surfacing the shapes you
need for a faster start. 

Quick actions allow you to instantly trigger features such as the timer, laser
pointer, highlighter, and more from a button on the canvas to organize and
present your work.

VISUAL ACTIVITIES INNOVATIONS

Last year, we launched Visual Activities to help teams turn qualitative feedback
into actionable insights and make decisions faster. Now, we’re enhancing Visual
Activities to make the experience even more seamless and customizable so
facilitators can align teams more quickly and easily. Take a look at what’s new:

 * Select shapes and objects that already exist on your canvas and instantly add
   them to a new activity.

 * Send results to the main document with the click of a button.

 * Export results as a CSV. 

 * Use resolve overlap to spread out a cluster of results to see each individual
   response. 

 * Share activities with a customizable link that allows you to set the user
   type and permission level.

 * Send all collaborators directly into an activity.

Review all Visual Activities functionality.

Note: Lucid’s AI capabilities are currently available to all users but may be
subject to a paid subscription model in the future.


BUILD

 



Create powerful, custom solutions for your team to streamline workflows and
increase efficiency. 


DEVELOPER PLATFORM ENHANCEMENTS

Last year, we announced new developer resources such as API offerings and the
Lucid developer portal to make it easier for users and partners to build apps
and integrations that enhance their team’s workflows. This included API
endpoints that enable the embedding of Lucid documents, the embedding of assets
into Lucid documents, the visualization of tasks via Lucid Cards, tools for data
syncing and visualization, and the creation of custom shape libraries.

Now, there’s an org chart API available, plus you can publish apps privately for
your organization.
