Can’t search for paths in Code Connect UI

This is what I want to connect path
The permissions look right

Hi Figma community,

 

I’m trying to use the newly released Code Connect UI and link it to a GitHub repository in our org. The GitHub App appears to be installed and authorized correctly (see attached screenshots). However, when I reach the “Select directory / path” step, the search field doesn’t return any directories. Typing known folders (e.g., src, packages, app) shows “No results.”

 

Expected

Being able to search/filter directories in the repo and select one.

 

Actual

The path/directory search returns no results and the list stays empty.

 

What we’ve checked/tried

  • GitHub App permissions look correct (org + repo installed; read access where required)

  • Tried both Figma web and desktop (macOS), including a private/incognito session

  • Disconnected/reconnected Code Connect, reinstalled the GitHub App, refreshed the repo list

  • Reproduces on a monorepo (/packages/*) and a simpler single-package repo

 

Questions

  • Is path/directory search gated by an indexing delay, specific branches, or a required config file?

  • Is there a known issue we can clear?

Similar issues here. I’m seeing some path options pop up that aren’t part of our connected directory at all, and then none of the paths from the intended directory.
