I created a file for work, there were my layouts. As a user, I was in a corporate team, and after leaving this team, my personal file disappeared, which was not inside the corporate Figma. I search for it by name, I search in the list of deleted, and it is nowhere. How can I restore access to it? I tried to return to the corporate team to find the file, but this did not give results, it simply does not exist. Although I remember its name exactly, I can not restore it. I once had a similar situation when a file disappeared after leaving corporate mail, but then I had a link to it and could go in, but now there is no link, and how can I restore access to it? I tried the option when I rejoined the team in Figma, but this did not give a result.
The design file has disappeared from my personal account.
Hi
From what you’ve described, it’s possible that the file was a draft created while you were part of the team in organization. When you create draft files while being part of an organization, those drafts are actually owned by the organization, not your personal account. When a member leaves an organization, their draft files become accessible to the organization admins in Admin. This is a security measure to prevent important work from getting lost.
Thanks for checking your Deleted files and trying to rejoin the team. I can try to locate the file. Feel free to share the exact name of the file and the team name where you last saw it, I’d be happy to look into this further for you. You can send me a DM and let me know under this post.
Thanks,
Gayani
