Context: Currently, when a Figma design file is shared, its entire version history is automatically accessible. If the version history needs to be excluded, the only workaround is duplicating the file and sharing the duplicate — which results in unnecessary file clutter.


Suggestion: Introduce an option to control whether version history is shared when sharing a file. This would help keep files organized and avoid sharing internal iterations that aren’t relevant to all stakeholders.

Figma currently offers an option to disable version history, but this stops recording changes altogether. This limits the ability to track progress while managing what’s shared.

Instead of disabling version history, introduce access controls that allow file owners to retain recorded history while deciding whether or not to share it. This way, internal experiments and drafts remain private, but the version history can still be accessed if needed.
