Figma desktop app (mac) version: 126.8.18
We have an enterprise license.
When I try to publish a generative plugin to the enterprise i get this:

{
    "error": true,
    "status": 500,
    "message": "Internal server error",
    "i18n": {
        "id": "error.internal_server_error",
        "fallback_text": "Internal server error",
        "params": {}
    }
}

Hey ​@hummh, thanks for reaching out!

Publishing generative plugins internally to your organization is supported on Organization and Enterprise plans.

Just to rule out a mix-up with an older flow:

  1. Open the file where your plugin lives
  2. Go to the Tools tab in the left navigation bar (use the Source filter → Created by you to find it faster)
  3. Click the next to your plugin and select Publish
  4. In the modal, choose Publish internally
  5. Fill in the icon, name, and description, then click Publish

 

If you're already following those steps and still hitting the 500 error. Can you confirm if this does this happen with every generative plugin you try to publish internally, or just this one?

In the meantime, it's worth trying the same publish from figma.com in a browser to see if the error follows you there too. That'll help narrow down whether it's specific to the desktop app.

I haven't seen other reports of this exact error yet, so knowing the answer to that will really help me figure out what's going on here. You can also check out Create internal plugins for an organization for the full walkthrough of this flow.

Let me know what you find!
