Question

User testing with Figma Make requires user sign in to Figma

Hello,

We are trying to use a Figma Make prototype for user testing. Unfortunately, it is asking the folks we are testing with to create an account and sign in to view and use the prototype.

This is too much friction for a testing session. Is there any way to share Figma Make prototypes with others without the need for them to log in?

We’ve set share settings to “Anyone with password”, but they get an error screen after entering the password, unless they log into Figma.

    Hi ​@Scott_Ledbetter, thanks for reaching out! 

    I just tested this with my own Make file with Anyone with password can view, but in an incognito window, I can still access the Make file without logging in. 

    Are you sharing the Figma Make file from the editor or the specific prototype view? These are the settings I used:


    Please let me know, and we can continue troubleshooting, as needed.

    ​@Scott_Ledbetter My team was encountering this issue with User Testing as well. We found if you publish the Figma Make file and place the URL of the published file into User Testing it opens with no lag, no prompt to create an account and maintains functionality. We unpublish the file once the testing is done.

    I am not in love with any of the options available in relation to sharing designs with testers.

    Right now you can either chose friction for your testers (creating an account) or loss of control for your organization (access to anyone, with one password) where you ultimately have no idea who is viewing your design.

    I can’t think of a possible solution to the problem though. But it is frustrating.
