Hi ​@Piotr S., thanks for chiming in here! 

Is this happening with your own personal Make file? If so, are you able to share a URL link? 

If I’m unable to determine what is causing the issue, I can also help get you connected with our support team to investigate further.

Been trying to figure this out for weeks. Not seeing any of our libraries in Make. Finally realized that the thing that looks like an ad is actually the UI for this. But my button is gray. Why is that?  

 

@Rob15 ​@EmH ​@Piotr S. I had same issue.. to start, you need to have at least one component in the file you’re publishing, simply having variables and/or styles will not work. (Seems like a flaw to me, I only wanted Make to reference a set of variables.)

Also you must make sure the library you’re publishing is enabled before trying to export to Make:

  1. Get your account’s Owner to change your permissions from Can edit to Admin,
    Go to - All projects screen - Open team dropdown - View members 
    If you cannot get Admin access, get your account Owner to do the following themselves…
     
  2. Turn team libraries you want to enable from Off to All files (or Design files). It’s the same location as part 1.  but click on: View settings - View team’s libraries - turn on which libraries you want Make to have access to.

Hi,

Same issue here.

  • I’m on an Education Plan
  • I’m the owner of the team, so this is not a “Can edit” issue
  • my library is enabled to All files, such as suggested by ​@Dominic

Seems that this problem occurs only with Education Plans accounts…
Can you please help us ?

Thanks a lot :)
S.

Hi ​@Simon Quemard MDS, thanks for chiming in here! 

I totally understand the confusion here, but the “Export to Figma Make” option isn’t available on the Education plan. While your plan has access to most Professional plan features, it still has some limitations around AI features.
 

Right now, some AI functionality, including bringing style context from a Figma Design library into Figma Make, is not supported due to AI permission restrictions. For transparency, there was an early rollout where a limited number of Education teams were granted access to AI features via a waitlist. Since your team wasn’t part of that initial group, you won’t see the “Export to Figma Make” option.


We appreciate you taking the time to flag this though. I hope this helps explain.
