this is long overdue! please add this feature. I want my clients to export assets, but not just copy the full file.

I have to agree, too!
We are a small design agency and we cannot afford our clients bypassing license models by copying the entire file that contains loads of concepts and ideas…

It’s crazy this feature doesn’t exist yet and would be totally needed. Especially only viewers should please not have the permission to duplicate files or if, only if the owner gives them the right to. So, yes, please add this feature!

Another case I just encounter…

We have taken/invested time to produce a great and complete UI kit.
We start all our project with it.

We also work with a lot of other agencies as creator of the design system for common customers.

And this morning, I just learn that one of our main competitor is duplicating our starter UI kit since 1,5 year without telling us for his own clients. I don’t find this fair !
This option can solve the problem.

And I know there is a lot of free UI kit… so they have to use those

Seriously. This feature would save loads of headache from a legal standpoint for us designers. I want to share some assets to potentials employees and not have them steal buttloads of work from us.

Our studio very much needs this functionality to offer up some amazing design system work to clients without fear of copyright and license violations. Please add!

A much-needed option for designers and any Figma file owner, seriously.

Any news about this feature implementation?
In our team we moved to figma also because we are trying to merge all the activities and deliverables in one platform. Actually the only solution for sharing project is to use Zeplin, otherwise the copy function let the client to copy the whole file on a local copy…
