Recently another person joined our and I (the admin) gave them edit access to all files. Last week I received an “invitation to edit” email from sent by the new team member to a file that I, as the account admin, already had access to, which confused me. I received another notification inside Figma itself showing that the new team member had changed me to be the owner of the file (I’m not sure what my permission was before if not owner, since I’m the one who created all the files currently in our Figma).
Ever since then I’ve been getting a 404 error whenever I use the “view main component in library” option on any components that are in the file the team member changed my access to. I’ve checked everything I can find/think of around file and team permissions in Figma, and according to all of it I should have unrestricted access to this file.
As the file in question is for our design system it’s important that I be able to access it to make component adjustments on the fly. How can this file’s permissions be repaired so that I can once again click “view main component in library” and be taken to the components in that file?
