It would be awesome if we could get access to copy and paste data in the Plugin API. We’re looking at creating a product which allows users export from our site to Figma (ideally through the clipboard) and the current ways of doing that involve some gnarly scripting I’d rather avoid.
If there’s another solution that would be awesome too!
To be more specific the endpoint would be used like
let copyData = figma.selectione0].copyData so we could copy that into users clipboards on our site.

I want this feature,
expect:
refer to Clipboard API - Web APIs | MDN
add a figma api
// read
figma.clipboard.readText()
figma.clipboard.read()
// write
figma.clipboard.writeText()
figma.clipboard.write()
my case
I developed a plugin, want to convert a image to base64, and automatically write to clipboard
currently it is impossible, I can only write base64 text to a text node, and require my user to manually copy text
my plugin Pwireframe | Figma Community

You can access to the Figma elements that you have copied on Clipboard Inspector
