Create a Flowchart Manually
Google Docs provides direct access to Google Drawings, which is where we’ll be making the flowchart. The options are basic but should be fine for most people. With the flowchart now in the document, you can move the flowchart around the page like you would an image and adjust the text wrap options depending on how you want it to sit with the page’s text. To edit the flowchart, either double-click it or select it once to find the Edit button.
Use a Flowchart Template
Google’s flowchart tools are fine, but if you want a method that provides more options or a template to start off with, use an add-on. Any edits we’d want to make to this flowchart would be done through Lucid.app. To have them reflected in the document, go to Extensions > Add-ons > Lucidchart Diagrams > Update Inserted Diagrams in Google Docs. To use a template instead, open Lucidchart’s File > New > From Template menu. The first few are free.
