You can use SmartDraw’s AI integration to generate a flowchart using natural language prompts.
Simply click on the star icon in the left bar to switch the SmartPanel to the SmartDraw Intelligence view.
Next, click Generate with AI.
On the next panel, select Flowchart.
The chat will be prefilled with some standard query language to help the LLM generate the right type of diagram for you.
Type in your custom prompt and hit the send icon in the lower right corner to send your prompt to the LLM.
For example, you can try the following prompt to get a simple flowchart:
Can you make me a flowchart that represents a SOC2 audit? Focus on the steps needed to be taken by IT staff to validate internal controls.
After the flowchart is generated, a chat message will notify you, and the flowchart will appear inside a frame in the drawing area on the right.
You can continue to modify the generated flowchart using AI. Ask to re-order steps, insert new steps, or add more detail.
You can also modify the generated flowchart with SmartDraw’s built-in flowchart tools. Modify colors, add steps, and more.
If you want to see the chat history that generated the flowchart, just select the frame around the flowchart. It will automatically switch your view of the SmartPanel back to SmartDraw Intelligence and your chat history.
