FAQ

I am not on a Team account. Can I still use the Lucidchart add-in for Microsoft Office?

Is O365 single sign-on available to all account types?

Yes, O365 sign-on is available to all Lucid account types. If you are on an Individual account, you can log in with O365 through the login page. If you are on a Team or Enterprise account, you can log in via O365 if your admin has enabled this sign on method for users on your Lucid account.

What security features does Lucid support for O365 sign-on for teams?

If you have a Lucid Enterprise account, you can set up domain control with O365 sign-on for your organization. If you have a Team or Enterprise account, you can limit log-in methods so users on your account can only access Lucid through O365 sign-on.
