Hi there, i have created a bunch of local color variables in a library file and i am wanting to apply/access all these local color variables in another file within the same project.

I have already created a bunch of components within the other file (and added the library file) and i want to apply the colors to the components.

I assumed when publishing the library file (with the local color variables) that i would be able to access these colors variables in my component file but i am struggling on how to do so.
Appreciate any help 😀

Example of my local color variables ive setup in my library file attached

Hi there,

Thanks for getting in touch. It sounds like you’re looking to publish a local variable. If that’s the case and you’re on a paid plan, you should be able to follow the steps in this article to publish variables:
