Question

if there is any supported plugin, extension, or alternative solution available to use Mermaid diagrams within Codebeamer ALM.
 
We would like to understand:

  • Whether Codebeamer natively supports Mermaid or has plans to support it
  • If any official or recommended plugin/extension exists
  • If not, what alternative approaches or tools are recommended by PTC

    I can see this as potentially helpful - using a diagrams-as-code approach (mermaid, plantuml) means if the diagram is changed in a requirement, it shows up as a diff to the requirement text rather than just a new attachment with an image in it.

    ​@RP_10913264 currently PTC recommends using PTC Modeler as a modeling tool, otherwise there is a build it diagraming tool that can be used. It has a Draw.io feel.
