Variables from an external library added to the file are not showing up when trying to assign them to a value of a local variable

Some of my colleagues have the same issue. They are editors in a file. The libraries are enabled, everything seems to be set properly. Did you manage to find a solution?

Hey All, sorry to hear you were having trouble with your libraries and apologies for the delayed reply!

This sounds related to a bug that we had and launched a fixed for a few days ago. This should have fixed itself if you were able to relaunch or refresh your tabs.

Please let us know if you’re still having issues.

HI ​@Aleem ​@Frank_De_Graeve1 ,

 

Sorry for the delayed response! Do you know if the missing variables are specific to a certain type (like text, color, or numbers), or are all variables missing entirely?

Could you please check that the library files are in a project rather than still in Drafts?

I'm trying to replicate the issue, so any additional details you provide would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks,

Toku

The library file is confirmed to be inside a Team project folder and not in a Drafts.

having same issue Some applied library variable disappeared suddenly while working my new file but in same project where main file is. I have checked in main file library has all the variables in it. its properly published. As I was able to access all variables in new file before and they just disappeared some hours ago i am sure there is some kind of new bug introduced
