I have a paid account and I’m trying to connect to Dev Mode from my Figma Sites project in order to access MCP and export my work. I don’t see the dev mode icon, nor a way to export via MCP. Can anyone guide me to a solution?

Hi ​@TheCommonTiger

 

I understand you're interested in using Dev Mode with Figma Sites. To clarify, Dev Mode is a specialized feature designed exclusively for Figma Design files and is not available in Figma Sites.

For more details, check out the Guide to Dev Mode.

 

That said, I'll go ahead and pass your feedback along to our team for review. While we can't guarantee implementation, your input is always valued. You can stay up to date on major product news at our Release Notes page.

 

Regarding the Figma MCP server, it helps you:

  • Capture your live UI as design layers, bringing interfaces rendered by your code into Figma Design files
  • Use agentic tools to create and modify native Figma content directly in Figma Design and FigJam

For more details, check out the Guide to the Figma MCP server.

 

Thanks,
