Hello there, 

I’m facing an issue where when i publish my library and try to export it to Figma Make. The option of “ Export to Figma Make” does not seems to appear.

I’m on an education plan and I have double checked all the files. They are i the same education plan project.

Thanks!

Hey ​@Mariane Moro, thanks for reaching out! 

We've replaced the "Export to Figma Make" flow with a newer system called Make kits, so the option several people in this thread were looking for has actually moved, not disappeared.

Here's the current path to bring a published library's styles into Figma Make:

  1. Open the Figma Design file with your published library.
  2. Click the dropdown arrow next to the file name (top left).
  3. Select Use library in Make.

That opens Figma Make with your library automatically added to a new Make kit. From there you can finish assembling the kit (add guidelines, test it, etc.) and publish it so your team can use it too.

If you'd rather start from a Make file instead:

  1. Open a Make file.
  2. Click Settings in the top-right corner, then Create a kit.
  3. Choose Assemble your kit, select Library on the left, and pick your published library from the list.

A couple of things worth double-checking if you still don't see the option:

  • You'll need a Full seat with edit access to the library's source file. Dev and Collab seats won't see this.
  • The library needs to already be published (not just used locally in one file).

For the full walkthrough, including publishing your Make kit once it's assembled, take a look at Get started with Make kits and Bring style context from a Figma Design library to Make kits.

Let me know if it's still not showing up after that, happy to dig further!

Hi! Found this thread and I am having the same issue. I tried all of the steps above and its still not showing up in the Exported Libraries section in Figma Make. Is it possible to also open a support ticket on my end? I tried on desktop mac app and browser and same issue in both. 

Thanks!

Hi there,  Celine from Figma here, working closely with Gayani. Thanks for flagging this! Since you’re still seeing the issue after trying those steps, the best next step is to submit a bug report so our team can investigate your specific setup.
As a gently reminder, please also note that you also need Full seat with edit access to the library's source file to export it (You can read more)

To submit a bug report : Go to the Support Hub / Click Start a chat / Type “Report a bug” / Include  your impacted file with support-share@figma.com and grant "Can View" access. This allows us to reproduce the issue and investigate Thanks!
