Hey ​@Sayalee , Celine from the Figma Community Support team here! Thanks for sharing the details and everything you’ve already tried. Since the issue persists across devices but your teammates can use these features, it may be related to a difference in your seat or file permissions.

Just to clarify, when you say you’re unable to “import assets,” do you mean importing files or assets directly into Figma Design, or accessing components and styles from a shared design system library?

Importing assets is available on all plans. Anyone can import into their drafts, while importing into a design file or team requires can edit access. You can find more details in our Guide to imports in Figma Design.

Please ask your team admin to compare your access with that of an unaffected teammate. In particular, for assets and styles from a design system, please also confirm that you have:

  • At least can view access to the source library
  • Can edit access to the destination file
  • The library added and enabled in that file

 

I see in the backend that you’ve already reached out to the support team, thanks for doing it! I’ve added a follow up note to your case #2125731, so our team can review your account and permissions directly. Please reply there with screenshots of any error messages, along with the URLs of the affected Figma Design file, design system library so they can take a closer look at it.

For security reasons, we can’t review account or permission details here in the Forum, but our support team will be able to check them directly. Thanks for your patience!
