Use Bit documents To Embed Lucidchart diagrams as an iframe!
If you, like us, love using Lucidchart as their primary diagram and chart tool, you are going to love this trick! But if you are new here, let me just give you an introduction about Bit!
Bit.ai is a new-age document collaboration and communication tool that helps teams to collaborate, share, track and manage all company knowledge in one place.
Bit allows teams to create workplace documents like- project proposals, sales decks, training documents, how-to guides, company policies, process documentation, media kits, fact sheets, competitive research, case studies, e-books, etc. and provides a safe and robust place to store these documents.
If you want to send these documents to external partners, clients, customers or prospects, you can even track them to get intelligent engagement insights.
The secret sauce to Bit is its ability to create documents like no other document editor out there. Bit helps you create documents of the future that are dynamic and much more than plain-boring text.
Apart from allowing multiple users to collaborate on documents, Bit also allows users to share any sort of rich media like YouTube videos, SoundCloud Playlists, embed Google Sheets, Docs, and Slides, One Drive Excel Spreadsheets, GIFs, Tweets, Cloud files, Pinterest boards, etc.
Basically, anything on the internet with a link can be shared and Bit will automatically turn it into visual content.
Bit’s documents are smart enough to read any weblink and automatically transform that link into visual content. Just enter any weblink on a blank line and hit enter. Bam! The content will show up beautifully.

Why embed live Lucidchart diagrams in a Bit document?
1. Say goodbye to email and other distractions!
We often share our cloud files with our peers over email. Then we try to explain what the file is about in the following emails, and before you know it you’re drowning in a sea of questions and answers!
When you have your important content scattered around different devices and tools, your productivity always takes the backseat. It becomes all too easy to get lost in a sea of browser tabs, and shatter that workflow!
Browsing through hundreds of folders, searching in your disorganized and massively populated inbox, searching through your cloud files, etc., all end up being a search mission that’s impossible to crack.
2. Bring context to your work
Sometimes you want more than just an email to explain what a particular file is about. You need context, information, and text to make your peers and teammates understand what the Lucidchart diagram or chart that you just shared is all about and what they are supposed to do with it.
Embedding a live Lucidchart diagram inside a Bit document as an iframe provides you with that much-needed space to discuss, give suggestions and feedback, and collaborate effectively- without people being lost and feeling confused.
3. Bring your team under a single roof!
In order to carry out your effective collaboration and communication, you need to get rid of all the apps that seem to slow you down rather than makes thing better. You need to bring all of your cloud files, data, content, and most importantly, people, under a single virtual roof.
Where all your documents, spreadsheets, marketing, and sales collateral, internal wikis, and knowledge co-exist without the need for any third-party communication tool or chat app.
