Restrict copying and sharing on files

Hey there, thanks for reaching out!

Since Educational teams are essentially Professional plans, you should have access to this feature. More info here:

I tried and it didn’t work, maybe that’s a bug?!

Hey @B_ng_Le_Kh_i, sorry to hear that!

Which Figma plan are you using?

Keep in mind, that you can only restrict copying and sharing on files for collaborators with can view access to the file only.

Hey,
I’m using the educational plan ( looks like professional plan features ), but “Restrict copying and sharing on files” isn’t working at all, I tested it with 2 different accounts several times to restrict editing and save to local from my shared link ( view only checked ), but unfortunately, I can’t find this most important feature usable, this lack of usability makes Figma untrustable for designers.

Hello @dvaliao, my plan is Education plan as well as Professional plan, I tried exacly like @Milad_Tahajody and it didn’t work too.

Hey All, thanks for following up and sorry for the trouble!

The feature was recently moved to Advanced settings, which may have caused some confusion. Again, this can only be applied for users with can view access. To prevent copying, sharing, and exporting of your file, be sure that the setting is not checked.

Here’s what your Advanced settings should look like:

Sharer

Viewers

Hello @dvaliao @B_ng_Le_Kh_i
Thanks for feedback,
But, as I said before I tested this method several times with different accounts ( share settings > advanced > Unchecked viewers can copy, share, and export from this file > then Save ) and it’s not working at all, there is no restriction applied to prevent viewers from coping, sharing and exporting our files!
This extremely violates the trustiness, safety, and intellectual property!

Thanks for the additional context, @Milad_Tahajody!

I’ve filed a bug report to have the team investigate.

Hey @tyq0808, thanks for flagging this to us!

This seems to be related to a bug we recently discovered. May I ask what plan are you using? Is this happening for you and others on your team?
