Hey!
How can I transfer the AI generated Prototype in Figma Make to Figma Design and continue editing it manually there?

Update (not solved):
Hey Tim,
At the moment, you cannot transfer designs or files from Figma Make back to Figma Design. Although you can attach Figma Design files to your Figma Make prompts, the reverse is not supported — Figma Make files, functional prototypes, or web apps cannot be brought back into Figma Design.
I’ve passed your request along internally. While we can’t promise it will be implemented, please know your feedback is greatly appreciated and will be considered for future updates.
Feel free to check our Releases page to stay updated on all major product news. Thanks!
+1 I had this same question/request too. AI like magic patterns already does it with a Figma plugin.
yes would be great e.g. for libary creation or to create components that can be reused in other projects
+1 to this request. It would help designers to expand thier ideations done on Make even more precisely in the design tool. Also, I’ve realized while expanding on an idea Figma Make gets slower and slower as we add context beyond one screen.
+1 I have been looking everywhere for this. Can’t believe it doesn’t exist already.
I made a quick and dirty vsix extension for VS code/cursor/ws etc. Clone repo, install vsix, command shift P and type figma make add… then select your zip file. It resolves any decompression issues as well as the package.json dependency versioning imports. apologies if anyone has issues, its a hotfix but works fine for me. Happy coding :) https://github.com/spetro511/figma-make-scaffolder
I need this as well.
Specifically for documenting user flows as testable scenarios.
Figma Make is great for testable prototypes, however, I need to ~*document*~ that test, and I prefer to do that in Figma Design. Being able to export the Make back to Design would be ideal.

Could you possible consider making this a Figma extension wherein you upload the Figma make file and have it insert the designs? This is unfortunately not scalable for our team. :( But we really need something like this.
+1! Making the flow seamless between the different tools is a make or break feature set for our team.
+1 to this request - i do UX/information architecture and the protyping is so incredibly helpful, but i have to send it back to the design team, who then has to build out the whole thing from scratch as a design file.
+1 how does it happen that it doesn’t exist? I bought subscription only for this
massive oversight not having this available
This should be priority if you want Figma Make to be useful. This is the main use case I need it for.. I want a rapid design based on a prompt that I can further customise myself

+1 Agreed, another user mentioned figma make is virtually a dead end.. with having to redo designs from scratch in Design and no further benefit from generating anything with make since it can simply just be shared. The coding can easily be done by other agents as well. We NEED the ability to customize what's generated from make while still being able to have the code agent.
I agree just discovered Figma Make and it helped solve a design issue quickly, but not being able to bring it back into Figma Design makes it pretty worthless. It would seem logical you could use Make to create your design element then bring it back into figma to carry on.
We just tested Figma Make for the first time and were impressed with the results - sadly that this does not exists makes us not want to use it in the future and look for alternatives. We hope that Figma Make will have this feature in the future.
This feature would be really useful. Not being able to make edits via a design feels makes Figma Make feel somewhat redundant. The small scale edits you can do on Make aren’t that useful.
What scenarios would you guys (community) actually use Make for?
Honestly, this feature is a must have. Figma Make is helpful but having it back in design will turn the tool more interesting to use.
I’m having some luck asking for an index file on figma make, copying it and pasting through html to design plugin. It’s not fast when you are dealing with multiple screens but it’s quite helpful workaround.
Then what is the use case then? just to see what’s possible.
the functionality is 90% there, but I need to take over to get it to the polish it needs.
I don’t want to share with the world this prototype, but I need the functionality back into the original design.
Please consider what we as the consumer/user thought this fundamentally would do. It feels like a misstep or maybe a technical hurdle that the functionality couldn’t be implemented currently.
Code can be merged, so local to the frame others to the project as global might lead to less conflicts and more solid integration. I look forward to this just being a persona in Design rather than it’s own like a remote island, a standalone tool.
Thank you.
What’s the purpose of Make and your AI tool? You should have that seamlessly transition to design so it can be exported for practical purpose. Having that ability alone would be such a great value proposition. Right now, it’s virtually useless.
So big requestor of this too however I will say there’s a pretty easy workaround.
Publish your Make prototype - open on chrome. Install html.to.design extension.
Export page by page (the app also has the ability for you to export from chrome extension into Figma.
Now you have a carbon copy editable Figma file of your make prototype.
Not official but working one: publish as website then use html.to.design plugin to bring it back into Figma.

This does not work with Figma Make. When converting to Figma Design, a black screen is displayed and that's it.
What is the point of Make when you cant transfer the result to a design file. Looks like an attempt to force people into using Site, no way anyone on the team never pointed such a critical feature.
