Need way to embed lucid chart

[benzitney]

Currently there's no way to embed lucid chart assets in Gitbook. The only way to embed a lucid chart asset is if you include a full HTML embed code. Using a simple URL doesn't work.

So we would either need:
A. A way to paste in the embed code — rather than only pasting in a embed URL
B. An integration with Lucid that allows an asset to be embedded with only the use of a URL

Hey @benzitney! Thanks for pointing this out - this should definitely be possible to be built using our Integration Platform: https://developer.gitbook.com/

You'd need to build an integration that unfurls the URL to display it in GitBook. We even have a guide on that here!

Thank you @addisonschultz but to be frank I don't even know where to start with those instructions. I'm not an web/app developer so for example I don't even know where to start with instructions like this https://developer.gitbook.com/cli/quickstart and I don't have the time to go down the rabbit hole to learn these skills just to get an iframe to display

@benzitney totally understandable. That being said, we just launched a new integration with Lucid! I think this might work for what you're looking for 🥳

Let me know how it works out for you!
