Hello everyone, I’m using Figma’s MCP through ChatGPT’s dev mode (web version), since from what I understand the “native” ChatGPT apps are not yet available in the EU. Overall, it seems to work correctly: the diagrams are generated as requested.

The issue arises when I click on “Edit in Figma”: it opens a project with the correct name, but it has no content, as if it were a newly created file.

In your opinion, is this a problem on ChatGPT’s side or Figma’s side?

Thank you in advance for any insight.

Hi ​@Takabrycheri, thanks for flagging this! 

What device and operating system are you using?

With more details, I can forward this over to our MCP team to investigate.

@djv I'm having the same issue. I generated a flowchart in ChatGPT, but when I clicked 'Edit in Figma,' the file was empty.
