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.

Thanks for all of this feedback! We’re considering some new functionality that will allow you to keep your FigJam files alongside your work in Figma. In the next few weeks, we’re running an invite-only beta and would love folks from this thread to participate and share feedback on the experience.

Came here to add this idea myself and very glad it has already been added! It would be fantastic if a FigJam file could be just a page in Figma files to make the process smoother 🙂

Connecting a Figma design file to a FigJam file would be immensely aid comms between UXR, design and wider stakeholders.

Typically flow:

  1. Outline the flow or journey in FigJam
  2. Propose some information architecture in FigJam
  3. Start concept work in Figma from the flow
  4. Start detailed design work in Figma

In steps 3 and 4, the UI designers are cross-referencing the flows in FigJam, so having them linked would be amazing for real time updates.

Is this research still available to get involved with?

Hi Vanessa,

Is there anywhere we can learn about the functionality being considered and outcome of the beta?

Amen to that! Creating a fig jam page inside a Figma file would be amazing!

Yes!!! Add Figma Jam as a page or a toolset in a regular Figma file! Its great that you can copy them into an existing file but THATS NOT ENOUGH! Being able to centralize all project documentation under one file and iterate from it is paramount to our work!

Just to add this would be very very useful instead of going back and forth between files to check flows against designs, plus have a single tool / single source of truth. We currently use both Miro and FigJam but it would be great to collaborate with PMs, Engineers etc all within Figma. If the Beta reopens, let me know, thanks!

I’ve just started using Figma. a lady in our team has created a FigJam flow and i’ve created prototypes… I had presumed the two would be able to be combined somehow? like if i click a box in the FigJam flow i want it show me the screen from the prototype file. i thought that’s the kind of thing Figma did thats why i switched from Adobe XD - is this ever going to be a thing?
