I have built a simple plugin for my organization to generate our best practice Figma file boilerplate. I would love to be able to take advantage of the new page dividers feature, but if I use the API to edit the name of the page to something like ‘—’ it doesn’t turn into a divider like it would from the UI.

name is changed to “—” or similar like in UI
same situation
@Mikael_Ahlstrom trying to do same goal plugin, could you tell me please how you replace first page, precreated when you open new file?
@Andrey_Cretsu I don’t think you can with the API. I’m just keeping the Page 1 to be deleted manually.
@Andrey_Cretsu you actually can rename existing pages. Here’s my entire TypeScript file with renaming.
Would be nice to have this als available from the api 😁.
Perhaps @Gleb could bring this up to the Figma team 😬
I don’t work for Figma
You can bring this to the team yourself by posting on discord.
My bad i thought you were part of Figma 😅 . I’ll will be going in search of Figma’s discord
@Andrey_Cretsu I don’t mean to sound rude, but if your code doesn’t still work, I suggest you google the error 😅 The problem is written in the end of that error message and solution is quite literally the first google result. Just add latest ECMAScript to your tsconfig.json and you’re good.
Same, naming the layer with ----- or **** just puts the names like this. I hope they will add this option to the plugin API
Everyone at Figma is very busy with AI now so it’s not guaranteed anyone would fix anything 😆😆
Same issue here.
It’s funny how everyone creates the same plugin in their organisations. 😅 (maybe an idea for another feature request haha).
Now you can create page dividers using API. Read more:
