Supported Operations

The Lucid MCP Server exposes the following tools through the Model Context Protocol:

Search Lucid Documents

Search for documents in Lucid based on keywords. Returns search results with document titles, IDs, and URLs, sorted by relevance. Returns up to 200 results.

Fetch Lucid Document Content

Retrieve the content of a specific Lucid document by its ID. Returns the full document structure including shapes, lines, and document metadata.

Create Lucid Diagram from Specification

Create a Lucid document using the Standard Import format. Supports rich diagrams with shapes, lines, groups, layers, images, containers, swim lanes, tables, UML classes, BPMN 2.0 elements, and data-backed elements. Optional automatic shape layout arrangement. Supports Lucidchart and Lucidspark.

Create Org Chart in Lucid

Create a Lucidchart document containing an organizational chart from structured node data. Takes a flat list of nodes with manager-report relationships. Nodes can include optional role and image URL fields. Supports up to 1000 nodes.

Create Mind Map in Lucid

Create a Lucid document containing a mind map from structured node data. Takes a flat list of nodes with parent-child relationships to build hierarchical topic diagrams. Supports up to 1000 nodes. Available in Lucidchart and Lucidspark.

Create UML Sequence Diagram in Lucid

Create a Lucid document containing a UML sequence diagram from PlantUML markup. Supports participants (participant, actor, boundary, control, entity, database), various message arrow styles, grouping (alt/else, loop, opt, par, critical, group), and notes.

Export Lucid Document as Image

Export a Lucid document page as a PNG image. Returns base64-encoded image data. Supports multi-page documents with 1-based page indexing.

Create Lucid Document Share Link

Create a new share link for a document with specified permissions. Supports role-based access control (view, comment, edit, edit and share), optional expiration dates, and anonymous access control.

Share Lucid Document with Collaborators

Share a Lucid document with collaborators by granting them access. Searches for users by email addresses and grants specified collaborator roles (view, edit, edit and share, comment) on the document. Supports up to 100 email addresses per request.

Getting Started

1. Add the Lucid MCP Server connector to your Microsoft 365 Copilot agent.
2. Sign in with your Lucid account when prompted.
3. Use any of the supported tools. Example prompts for Copilot:
   • "Find Lucid documents containing 'quarterly planning'."
   • "Show me the contents of my architecture diagram in Lucid."
   • "Create a Lucid org chart for my team."
   • "Create a flowchart for our deployment process in Lucid."
   • "Share my Lucid project diagram with alice@example.com."
   • "Export page 1 of my Lucid diagram as an image."

Known Issues and Limitations

• MCP tools are executed by MCP-aware runtimes such as Microsoft 365 Copilot agents.
• The Power Automate Test tab is a connector configuration and validation surface and not an MCP execution client. As a result, direct testing in the Test tab may return an unauthorized (401) response. This does not affect functionality when the connector is used through Copilot agents or during Microsoft’s MCP certification validation.
• Search results are limited to 200 documents per query.
• Org charts and mind maps support a maximum of 1000 nodes per document.
• Document sharing supports a maximum of 100 email addresses per request.
• Search query text is limited to 400 characters.
