Hey Figma Community! 👋I’m trying to solve a problem around reusing common flows across multiple files in Figma.Specifically, I want to: Create a component for a flow (multiple screens with interactions) Include prototype interactions (like navigation, transitions, etc.) as part of that component Publish this component as part of a shared library And then use it in other design files without breaking the prototype connections The issue I’m facing is: when I use that published component in another file, the prototype interactions often break or don’t work as expected.Has anyone figured out a clean way to achieve this? Or is there a best practice for making flows reusable with working prototypes across files?Would really appreciate any tips, workarounds, or ideas. 🙏Thanks in advance!

Question

Reusable Components with Prototyping – Can we publish and reuse flows with interactions?

Hey Figma Community! 👋

I’m trying to solve a problem around reusing common flows across multiple files in Figma.

Specifically, I want to:

Create a component for a flow (multiple screens with interactions)
Include prototype interactions (like navigation, transitions, etc.) as part of that component
Publish this component as part of a shared library
And then use it in other design files without breaking the prototype connections

The issue I’m facing is: when I use that published component in another file, the prototype interactions often break or don’t work as expected.

Has anyone figured out a clean way to achieve this? Or is there a best practice for making flows reusable with working prototypes across files?

Would really appreciate any tips, workarounds, or ideas. 🙏

Thanks in advance!
