[Resolved] All built-in shaders fail to load

When applying any default/built-in shader via Fill → Shader OR Effects → Shader on the Figma desktop app, nothing renders on canvas and no shader panel appears for me. Confirmed via DevTools (⌥⌘I → Console/Network):

GET https://www.figma.com/community/custom_tool/28/code → 404 (Not Found)
[published-artifact-custom-resource] failed to load artifact data
XHR for "/community/custom_tool/28/code" failed with status 404

This happens across all built-in shaders (tested Risograph print and others), not just one. File is under a pro plan, full seat, so this isn't a plan/seat issue.

Hey everyone! I’m also jumping in on behalf of ​@Jaycee Lewis. Our engineers just released a fix for this, so if you refresh or reload it should work for you. Please let us know if you have any further trouble, and thanks again for your patience while we worked on resolving the issue!

Hey ​@Ann Beaver 👋 Thanks for the recording, super helpful!

To confirm a couple of things so we can dig in further:

  • Are you seeing this on desktop app, browser, or both?
  • If you haven't already, could you try fully closing the browser (not just the window), restarting it, and updating to the latest version if one's available, then let us know if that changes anything? Same for desktop
  • Could you also share your Figma desktop app version (or browser + version if applicable) and your OS and OS version?

Thanks you – Jaycee

The same issue appears with the shaders today. I would appreciate a fix.
