  2. In the toolbar, choose Start of the navigation pathShare Next navigation step Embed diagramEnd of the navigation path.

    The Embed diagram dialog opens.

  3. If the embedding options are disabled, select the link Share diagram for read-only access to enable them.

  4. On the Simple image tab, you'll find a diagram preview and the link containing the image in PNG format.

  5. To embed the image, paste the link into your web page.

The embedded diagram image is automatically updated when a change is made to the diagram.
