Figma Buzz - Bulk Create (not creating correctly)


Jonny Sands

Hi all, 

I am trying to create localised assets for my company and using Figma Buzz and the Bulk Create feature.

I paste in the template I am working with into Figma Buzz, upload the xlsx file with the format as attached but when connecting the items and clicking “Create assets” it’s creating the assets but it’s just duplicating them. It’s not replacing the text as per the spreadsheet. 

What am I doing wrong? Or is this a bug?

Hi ​@Jonny Sands 

 

Thanks for reaching out with the screen shot! I tested on my end and it seems to be working fine as below:

To help me troubleshoot your specific issue, could you share a little more detailed steps you took when you encountered this problem? A screen recording would be particularly helpful as it would allow me to see exactly what's happening in your workflow.

 

Thanks!

Toku

Hi Toku! 

For some reason it is now working for me, I haven’t changed anything in regards to how I am using it but it’s working. So I’ll put it down to the beta having a wobble but thanks for your help!

Hello,

I’m facing the same issue. I’m testing the Bulk feature, but it’s not working. It’s just duplicating the original layout.

That’s what I’m doing:

Uploading this simple sheet:


Mapping:

 


But when I click to create, this is what happens:


Am I missing something?

I’ve already check for Figma Updates and installed them.

Thanks!

I am having same issue, but I think I may have found what the issue could be. 

I created the file in figma design, then copied it into Figma buzz looks great. 

When I try to bulk create it just duplicates.

Could this be because ‘I have my text in an, auto layout frame, with another lot of text, do the text layers need to be separate layers unframed. Hope this makes sense. 

Also can Figma buzz update a component variable, if stated which state in a spreadsheet, shown here as Stream. I appreciate this is probably a big ask. 

Please see here a look at the layers set-up, any advice would be greatly appreciated. All that is happening for me is that it is duplicating not adding content, shown on this video link.
