Import and export

Import

Use Mermaid source for the most direct, portable workflow. Studio also provides structured import tools for supported SQL, JSON, CSV, OpenAPI, and YAML input. Always review the generated structure before saving.

Export

• Mermaid source keeps every element editable and works well with version control.
• SVG stays sharp at any size and suits documentation.
• PNG is convenient for messages and presentations.
• PDF is useful for review and printing.

Recommended practice

Keep a source export alongside visual exports. The image communicates the current result; the source preserves your ability to update it later.
