About the UML Sequence Diagram template
Understanding how different parts of a software system talk to each other is crucial, but creating and maintaining the diagrams to show it can be slow. The UML Sequence Diagram template changes that. It provides a powerful workspace for engineers and developers to quickly map out system interactions over time. Whether you're designing a new feature or untangling legacy code, this template helps you visualize the message flows and lifelines of your objects, all within Miro's collaborative innovation workspace.
How to use the UML Sequence Diagram template
Generate the diagram with AI. Start by using the prompt box. Select "UML Sequence" as the Diagram Type, then type a prompt describing the system interaction you want to map. Click "Run" to have Miro AI generate the initial sequence diagram for you in seconds.
Refine and customize your diagram. Once your diagram is generated, click the two arrows in the diagram toolbar to open focus mode. Here you can make any necessary adjustments with Miro's full suite of diagramming tools. You can also use this mode to draw a new diagram from scratch. When finished, come back to the canvas.
Generate technical documentation. Connect your finished diagram to a Miro Doc to automatically generate technical documentation. Fill in the prompt on the doc to specify the type of document you need, like an RFC or system overview, based on the logic you visualized. Click "Run," and your doc will be ready in minutes.
Why use the UML Sequence Diagram template?
Create diagrams in seconds, not hours. Move from a complex idea to a clear sequence diagram with a simple text prompt. Let AI do the heavy lifting of initial creation so you can focus on refining the details.
Keep your documentation in sync. Bridge the gap between visual models and written specs. Because your document is generated from your diagram, you can ensure your technical documentation is an accurate reflection of your system's design.
Improve team clarity and alignment. Use a clear, visual diagram as the single source of truth for how a system works. Reduce ambiguity and ensure everyone from engineering to product management is aligned on the technical details.
