Connect or embed FigJam files with Figma files

Another nice addition would be to connect your FigJam files with related Figma files. So as not to rely on file naming. Creating links between the two would allow for easier navigation and discovery from others in the team.

I think it would be nice to have Fig Jam as a page selection in projects.

For example My team would like to use fig jam to research and spitball ideas at the beginning of a project then add another page for the Figma board to begin building comps/prototypes. We just want to keep them together.

  1. We do a lot of documentation in Figma pages
  2. We do a lot of user flows and user journeys in Jams

But we want to present to our stakeholders as one single file -
This basically means we do not want to switch between files when presenting.

We want to show our research, persona and stuff and then show the IA diagram together.

Hope you come up with a solution soon.

PS - We really wish we would have the pen/sketch tool from Jam in Figma - We draw a lot of arrows when brainstorming on designs

Regards,
Aditya

We’ve been loving FigJams so far at my company; it’s a fantastic tool to not only brainstorm, but to successfully collaborate across our whole product team! However, for project organization purposes, it would be really helpful to be able to add a FigJam as a page of a regular Figma document so I can keep everything related to one project in one place.

Agreed, we have been copy and pasting into a regualr document after to keep al files in one structure. It would be great if a page could either be a FigJam doc or design doc.

This is a huge differentiator and competitive advantage over a Mural or a Miro.
I assumed this would be a feature right out of the box.
BUMP!!!

I currently use Miro when I have to explore ideas (drawing flows, sticky notes, listing architecture information…). It sucks that I always have to go back and forth between the two. It actually want to draw and annotate with Jam tools right besides the Figma designs. We already have a prototyping mode, what about a Jam mode so that everything can be in the same file?

Combining Figjam/Figma features into a singular interface would be cool. Maybe one page is a Figma, another page is a Figjam? Maybe you can use the Figjam floating bottom toolbar on a Figma file?

I’d love to be able to export/copy screens into FigJam and the screens would still sync. So if I change something in Figma, the screen would also be automatically be updated.

  1. Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this
    Too many separate files! being able to link Figjams to Figma files would be great…perhaps make the figjam a “page” in a figma design file

  2. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.)

  3. Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation
    Does anyone else experience this or know how to solve this?

It would be very useful to create a FigJam as a page within a file, or somehow embedded.

Currently, I split a file into multiple pages depending on the design phase (Sandbox, last design, flows) and I want to create a FigJam but linked directly in my normal file so as not to lose context.

I know that maybe is not possible but I’m just sending the idea.
