How to update my figma plugin using manifest?

Ctrl+K → Plugins & Widgets → Plugin name → ●●● → Publish new version

Thanks for the reply @nellya

I get the publish new version option. But it still publishes the same version. I have my local updated plugin and my live plugin. I don’t know how to connect my local updated plugin to my live plugin. Or should i do anything? Did i miss any step here?

Make sure you publish development version, it should have a Development label near the name

Thank you ​@Nellya 🙌

Make sure the id in your local manifest.json is exactly the same as the ID of the published plugin. If it’s different, Figma will treat it as a separate plugin. You may also need to re-import the local version from the manifest in the Desktop app, then use “Publish new version” from the development plugin. That’s what I’d check first.

Thanks ​@Nellya and ​@Wirkkarl!

Basically, I should use the id in my updated manifest.json. This is where i missed. Since the live plugin has the id in manifest.json so it fetches it quickly. The updated manifest.json didn’t have the id so figma couldn’t fetch it. 

 - From my live plugin, i took the id and pasted it on my updated manifest.json.
 - Removed local version from the live plugin. Manage plugin → Plugin name → ●●● → Remove local version.
 - Now, i wanted to locate my updated plugin to run it. Manage plugin → Plugin name → ●●● → Locate local version.

By selecting my updated manifest.json (with id), it fetched the updated manifest. And it worked.

Thank you all. 🙌🏻
