Create diagrams with AI
The quickest route: describe what you want, get a diagram, edit it.
#How to
Step | What you do |
|---|---|
1 | Insert a diagram and choose to generate it. |
2 | Describe the diagram, including the notation if you care which. |
3 | Review the draft, then edit or regenerate. |
#What to check every time
Are the relationships right, or merely plausible? This is where generated diagrams fail most often.
Are the labels your team's words, or generic ones?
Is anything missing that you did not think to mention?
Say which notation you want. Asking for "a diagram of the login flow" gets you something; asking for "a Mermaid sequence diagram of the login flow" gets you the right thing.
#A few things that catch people out
It cannot know things that are not written down. It will invent a plausible shape instead.
Long descriptions work better than short ones; it is not a search box.
Regenerating replaces the draft. Save anything you want to keep first.
