IT pros will be able to use the new commercially released JavaScript APIs for Visio to embed Visio diagrams in "any Web page," per an Office Dev Center document. For instance, Visio Online users have the ability to embed a Visio diagram in a "Document Web Part in Modern team site pages," the FAQ explained. However, Visio Online offers some benefits over the older Visio Web Access approach for tapping some of Microsoft's newer SharePoint technologies. SharePoint WebParts that have the Visio Web Access element embedded won't be affected by the release of Visio Online. Instead, users need "Visio 2013 or Visio 2016 desktop applications," according to the FAQ. Visio Online permits the adding and sharing of diagrams, but it currently doesn't let users edit diagrams. Broader Visio Online support across browsers is available on the Windows platform.

The Android platform has support when using the Google Chrome browser. It permits Visio files to be viewed from OneDrive, OneDrive for Business or SharePoint, according to a Visio Viewer FAQ. Microsoft recently released a Visio Viewer for iOS solution that works with the Safari browser. Platform and browser support for Visio Online is still incomplete, according to the FAQ document. It's accessible by all Office 365 subscribers that have access to Office Online as part of their subscription plans, according to Microsoft's FAQ page. The Visio Online service, which lets users share diagrams, was at the preview stage back in November, but now it's released, although not in all languages yet. Visio is a process-mapping solution that's used to illustrate business processes and organizational hierarchies, or even generate network maps.
Microsoft this week announced that its Visio Online service is available to most commercial Office 365 subscribers.
