Hello

“Open this link?” When I click “continue” button on the popup, the popup does not close.

I was aware of the email exposure warning, but it seems strange that it doesn’t work.

Because of this, I can’t do my existing work. Sorry, but please check quickly.

I’m having the same issue also - I did recently change my email address but it never affected my access with this particular client before.
I’ve asked them to remove my access to the file and reinvite me. I will see if that helps.
But I’ve tried all that everyone has suggested here.

Has anyone got a response from Figma directly?

I think this issue occurs mainly when the type of account for the person sharing does not match the type of account of the viewer. As far as I understand, this is a front end bug/API connectivity bug that you can technically bypass if viewing in browsers by right clicking on the modal overlay div → Inspect → and then removing the modal div from the page.

Please note that this is simply a workaround and cannot guarantee results - use with caution. This is definitely a bug that Figma needs to fix. Additionally, you cannot use this workaround when using the desktop application.

Note to Figma team: If you cannot fix the issue, please still allow the workaround 😊
