What’s changing
Lucidchart, an app that helps users collaborate on diagrams, such as flowcharts, wireframes, entity relationship diagrams, and more, and Lucidspark, a virtual whiteboard tool, are two third-party add-ons already available across Workspace apps, such as Docs and Meet. Today, we’re excited to announce support for both of these apps in Google Chat.
Lucidchart and Lucidspark’s integrations with Google Chat will enable users to:
- Get an immediate preview of Lucidspark and Lucidchart links shared in Chat conversations.
- Type “/lucidsearch” in Chat to find and share Lucid documents instantly.
- Keep teams aligned by bringing visual context into conversations.
