Generate an Organizational Chart with AI

  • Updated

In addition to generating your organizational chart from data, you can also use SmartDraw’s AI integration to generate an org chart using natural language prompts. 

Step 1: Switch the SmartPanel to SmartDraw AI

Start by clicking on the star or sparkle icon in the left bar to switch the SmartPanel to the SmartDraw AI view. 

Step 2: Enter a Prompt

Type in your 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 generic org chat structure. You could also point to publicly available data for an org chart like Apple's leadership team.

After the organizational chart is generated, a chat message will notify you, and the mind map will appear inside a frame in the drawing area on the right.

You can continue to modify the generated org chart using AI. Ask to remove items or add more detail. 

Step 3: Edit Your Generated Org Chart in SmartDraw

You can also edit the generated org chart with SmartDraw’s built-in organizational chart tools. Change colors, add names and details, and more.

If you want to see the chat history that generated the org chart, just select the frame around the timeline. It will automatically switch your view of the SmartPanel back to SmartDraw AI and your chat history.
