Question

No edit access anymore

Hi! I have a problem with a file I created and edited just this week. The file was only accessible to me and it was created in my drafts, but now I don’t see this file anywhere in my workspace, I only see it in my recents and when I open the file, I get an error that “this is an unassigned draft”. Even when I click the “request access” button, I don’t receive this request by email, as if the file was created in someone else’s space. I might have exited a workspace as well, not sure, but there are several files affected and I am unable to identify owner as well. What can I do about this?

    Hi ​@aditibhatnagar1909, thanks for reaching out! 

    This definitely seems odd, especially since you created the file and were the only one with access. Do you have a file link that you can share? 

    With the link, we can try to investigate to see what happened to the file on the backend.

    Looking forward to helping you track down your file!

    Thanks for the link, ​@aditibhatnagar1909! 

    It looks like the file is within the team: TradeKart
    Admins are Akshit S. and Manoj J. 

    Does any of this sound familiar?
    Perhaps you previously collaborated, and the draft was mistakenly moved. 

    In any case, I can confirm that you are the file creator/owner. We’re not able to assist with File Management here on the forum, but please reach out to support, who can assist you in reclaiming your file: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
