Report a Problem

Hello Figma Team,After receiving multiple errors trying to verify my account for an education plan, I finally received the Verification Limit Exceeded Error, and it will not let me submit any more verification attempts.I tried contacting SheerID but was met with the “We were unable to process your verification request. While we can't offer further details or support for this specific inquiry, please ensure all information submitted is accurate and meets the eligibility criteria for future attempts. Your ticket has now been permanently closed.” message other users seem to be encountering. I need access to Figma education for my classes, and the documents I provided were the same as my classmates’ but only mine encountered errors, if there is anyone on this forum or anyone from the Figma team that can assist in getting my account verified or resetting my verification attempts that would be very much appreciated.  

Its been about two weeks now that I’ve been trying to get my Figma student account verified. I’ve already reached out to SheerID but they permanently closed my ticket. They didn't give me a reason why. I used my college email to verify and uploaded evidence of my enrollment. I dont know what to do. I’ve already missed out on a lot of collaborative work and I’m afraid this will cause me to loose points in my assignments. I tried to verify my status again but it said I had exceed the limit of attempts. Please help. It seems I’m the only one in my classes that is having this issue. 

Hello, The previous owner of the team has deleted their account on 2026/01/30. Team project name: 윤지/희진 Previous owner email: [redacted by forum admin/moderator to remove PII] New owner email: [redacted by forum admin/moderator to remove PII]  Before the account deletion, the ownership of the files was transferred to my account.However, since the files belonged to a team project, the files are no longer visible and appear to be missing after the previous owner left the team. I would like to request assistance in recovering the missing files or restoring their visibility under my account. Please let me know if you need any additional information, such as file URLs or screenshots.

I am in a Figma Make project with multiple linked pages, when I select the point and edit to select a specific element it keeps changing the page and going to another page instead of the one I was just on. I’m not able to select the specific elements on pages because it keeps changing pages as soon as I click on point and edit. I just updated my Figma this morning to the newest update and now have this issue.

FIGMA MAKEI keep getting this message” This document contains unsaved changes. These changes are saved locally and will sync when Figma reconnects” .at the same time I am just unable to get any response after i put my prompt and the offline sycn takes days.. it is very frustrating. I logged out many times .. nothing works..  

Hi, it would be great if you guys can help me out on this. I've been trying to publish my website so I can see how it behaves, but I'm getting a distorted page every time I publish it. It doesn't look distorted in my Figma make file, so I'm not sure what is wrong. I depublish it, I republish it again, that didn't seem to be the issue. I logged out and logged back in, that didn't help either. I reviewed the past files, and solutions have been asked in the forum, and tried to troubleshoot, but it doesn't seem like it's getting resolved. 

Hi Figma Support,I am writing to request the restoration of a Team Library file that was accidentally deleted.I must emphasize that this file has been completely purged. We have already performed a thorough check of the Trash folder with the filter set to "Created by: Anyone," and there are absolutely no records or traces of this file remaining.This file is critical to our design system and ongoing work. Here’s the file link for your reference:File URL: https://www.figma.com/design/goV6fuxKBVmamiGeca8nA3/ZStack-Kit--Base-Obra-?node-id=272-27980&t=b0MtFb2t9ip4g8lK-1Since the standard recovery options are not working, could you please help us recover this file from your backend database?I look forward to hearing fr

Hey, The preview looks great but then when I publish and navigate to the site, the theme.css file seems to be missing resulting in the published version looking rubbish. This seems to have happened since the last update. Please investigate. ThanksSteven

I’m running into a serious issue after upgrading my Figma account and hoping someone from Figma can help.What happened I upgraded my account from Starter → Professional I’ve always used the same email After upgrading, several files that I personally created are no longer visible Current behavior The files: do NOT appear in Search do NOT appear in Drafts do NOT appear under All teams The only way I can find them is through old browser history links When I open the direct link, I see a “Request access” screen — for files I originally owned and created myself Important detail I did not change emails

Hello, I am a graphic design educator at Dawson College in Montreal. One of my students cannot get his credentials verified since his verification limit has been exceeded. He has contacted both SheerID and Figma to no avail. I have written to education@figma.com on his behalf, along with proof, but I have yet to receive a response - it’s been a week. This software is essential to my students’ learning. Hopefully I will get a quicker response here. 

When exporting as PNG or JPG, only the base layer of my frame exports, even though all of the missing elements are in the frame and visible. I have to individually export frame by frame instead of batch exporting all frames on a page as I usually do.

I want to change my current gmail to my education email adress so that I can reverify as an Educator for my university. But, when I tried changing it, after I got the confirmation email and clicked the confirmation button, the following message appeared:The email address cannot be updated: "..." is already in useI don´t know what it means, since there’s no account linked to that email. After that, I tried creating a new account with my education email, to try and solve the problem. But this other message appeared: “That email and password combination is incorrect”I dont know what else to do and I don’t understand what’s the problem wit

My account doesn’t show the Variables panel. I’m able to create variables, but I can’t access the Local Variables manager in any file.It seems that my account has partial access to this feature.Could you please enable the full Variables panel for my account?Thank you very much.

I added a custom domain and all my DNS settings are correct and have propagated.  It has been a few days and my status is still “Awaiting certificates”.  It says it will take 15-30 minutes and I am losing sales because my website is not reachable.  How can I resolve this issue?  Thanks!

Using the new GRIDS feature:Does anyone know how you can:• Insert a ROW or COL in the middle of a GRID?• Or if you can reorder the ROWs or COLS? I can’t see a way of doing this, Am I missing how to do this?  or is it a gap in the functionality? To be clear I and others are using grids to create tables, and reordering rows and columns is an obvious need. Cheers  

I created a file using Figma Make in a Starter account, then shared it with my higher education Education account.In the Education account, I had edit access and have tried transferring ownership from free to education account, and duplicating the file. When I attempt to use the Copy design feature, I am prompted to upgrade to a Professional plan, even though higher education accounts should have access to this feature.The issue persists regardless of file ownership or duplication.

I am a student at Colorado Mesa University but my verification keeps getting declined. I submitted the exact same proof of education as my class mates but I got declined while other classmates got accepted. I received this message, “Thank you for uploading your documentation for confirmation. Unfortunately we were unable to confirm your status” three times.  I contacted SheerId about my problem but never received a response. I was told by a classmate that SheerId wasnt able to help him and he recommended I came here.  

Happy holidays!  I’ve opened a ticket (1653026 ) for this on the 23rd but still haven’t heard back from anyone.  I know the holidays are slow, but need some help.  Hoping someone is out there monitoring this.I think Make's integration with Github is broken, or at the very least the support team needs to look into why the Create repository feature keeps erroring out for us (I keep getting "could not create repository"). I tried to push to Github last week before doing my code review, and it wasn't working then. I just tried again after deleting and re-establishing Make as a recognized App in our Github org, and I get the same error. I confirmed that we're following the right steps in https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/35463818346647-Push-from-Figma-Make-to-GitHub.I read a KB article that indicates th

We have noticed in our team, that when one merges a branch the link to the changed frame in the main file changes. This is inconvenient for our requirement engineers because they always need to adjust the links in the tickets and specifications.It would be great, if the link to existing frames or sections stay the same. Obviously, if a new frame was added, it gets a new link.  Please consider this, because the work with branches is really great and helpful otherwise, but this adds unnecessarily to the workload.

I’ve been having issues for days attempting to reverify my student plan. When I complete the form, I get a message stating that I’ve exceeded my limit. However, when reaching out to SheerID, they’ve confirmed that verification was successfully completed in Sept 2025. They’ve also stated that my status is still ‘active’ in their system and suggested I reach out to Figma for help.Can I get support in resolving this issue?

I have a frame, that has a red fill. In that frame I have place a frame with an image fill. As soon as I do that the red fill is no longer applied and the parent frame becomes transparent. Once I click on the eye icon next to the image fill, the red background becomes visible again. 

I can’t find my Figma file. Yesterday, I can’t find it in my files, also not in my deleted files. How can I restore this?Notification: Hmm, we couldn’t find that one… This file may have been deleted, moved, or made unavailable. Try reaching out to the file ownerI am the file owner and can’t find it. Please help and restore it!Link: [redacted by forum moderator to remove PII]Kind regards,Tatiana M

Hi, I was given an educational Figma account at my university, and I logged in and added it, but when I went to verify it, it took my personal account and assigned the educational plan to it. What should I do?
