I’ve created a Figma plugin to get the state of local variables then trigger external API’s based on that state change. I’m trying to have a prototype instance of the file communicate with the Figma Plugin I created so when I click a UI element in the prototype, a variable changes which triggers an external API. Right now, there’s no way I can find to ‘listen’ for the variable state change in a prototype because it does not ‘write’ to the original variable value.

We raised it in the past:  Hi,We are integrating with Figma as part of our SSPM solution and need access to an API for organization settings and accounts, similar to the one used by the UI. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find documentation for this API. Is it possible to use a PAT (Personal Access Token) of an admin for this purpose? If not, do you have any plans to support this functionality?Thanks! Can you please give us some sort of roadmap for it?

 Summary A way to merge two or more Figma Make files together — similar to how video editing tools let you combine, split, or cut clips on a timeline.The problem When working on complex SaaS prototypes and flows, I often end up with multiple Figma Make files that each contain useful generated content. Right now, there's no way to bring them together without re-prompting from scratch — which means repeating context, losing time, and risking inconsistent output.The idea A merge or "stitch" feature where you can:Select two Figma Make files and combine them into one Preview the contents of each file (like a video timeline view) before merging Choose the order, split points, or which sections to keep — without having to re-generate anythingWhy it matters For product designers working on multi-screen SaaS flows, being able to build up a prototype from modular Make sessions would massively speed up the process. It would make Figma Make feel less like a one-shot tool and more like a composable

Hi, I hope Figma's product team can prioritize shipping these features. They are all quite simple and practical — I believe in today's era, they should be relatively quick to implement.While using Figma for component library and token management, I've encountered some UX pain points. I'm also surprised that such straightforward things weren't done completely from the start. Here are my optimization suggestions for Variables and components: Icon as a distinct component type — I'd like Icons to be treated as a unique component type so that when configuring Variables, icon colors can be mapped independently without being mixed with text colors.   Transparent color overlay via token references in color tokens — I'd like the ability to reference other tokens and apply transparency overlays within color tokens. For example, supporting rgba expressions, or even better, upgrading to support oklch.   Gradients as tokens — Currently, there are many gradient styles that can only be managed th

Hi, is there a way to copy the properties of a shape in FigJam and paste it onto another shape like we do in Figma but I have not found a way to do in FigJam or maybe there is a plugin out there that can do that? 

Hi everyone,I’m trying to figure out the best way to download design specifications from a Figma file for offline use. In my current workflow, there are situations where I need to access specs, assets, and design details without an internet connection or outside of Figma.I’m specifically looking for:A reliable way to export complete design specs (spacing, typography, colors, etc.) Options to download assets and measurements in a structured format Any tools, plugins, or workflows that help replicate Figma inspect mode offlineHas anyone faced a similar challenge?Would love to know how you handle this or if there are recommended plugins/workarounds.Thanks in advance!

My team and I like Figma very much, but not everyone can adapt to the pure English version.

The Figma app for Microsoft Teams is fantastic! But unfortunately, it doesn’t have compatibility with shared channels. Please consider adding it, so that I can share my Figma designs with external clients more easily.Full list of supported apps:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/shared-channels#supported-apps-in-shared-channels

One important feature is missing = Merging cells 😦 Is this feature included as an improvement in the near future?

Figma is a beast and provides everything you could possibly need, yet FigJam is like a tool designed for babies. Can we have an advanced mode that presents the tooling in a more professional manner. Shape tools should support more granular control over look and styling. i.e. i want a solid white square with different coloured border and border style. I’d like to be able to control the skew amount on rects. I’d like to be able to set the stroke width and have more stroke styles. I’d like to be able to create components in Figma and bring then into FigJam, that resize and scale as they do in Figma. I’d like to be able to have preset line styles so i can quickly change them. I’d like some auto layout tools that create spider diagrams etc. Just like in Miro. I’m sure there are some plugins that do elements like this, but i believe this should be defacto standard within FigJam.

Tables in FigJam are great, but I’d like to be able to change the color of the text font within a table, for certain rows, columns or cells. For an example use-case, I’m working with a customer journey map, and I’d like to be able to color-code text along the journey based on various criteria, such as red text for negative sentiment, green for positive, etc.I know that I can copy and paste the table from FigJam into a Figma design file to change font color, but when I do that, I’m not able to use other nice table-related features in Figma at this time, such as adjusting the width of individual columns.Thanks!

Hello, I’m trying to work out if it’s possible to change text colour within a table cell on FigJam. If I choose a change of colour it is only allowing me to change the background colour. I’ve tried hacking it but to no prevail, any ideas? Thanks Please search for existing topics before posting! Press 🔍 at the upper right to search.

I wish there is a native “embed” option in FigJam where we can embed any links from photos and videos without having to download and upload them to figjam. Canva has a simila feature which is really convenient. 

Ai suggestions are turned off in the menubut I’m still getting this every time I copy and paste a text frame 

I wondering if someday I will be able to create a custom format within Figma Slides. I need to create presentations for a huge format, as the screens for Google CEO with the size of 6240x2160 pixels. As I can't do using Microsoft PowerPoint I have hopes that I will be able to customize the size at Figma Slides using images and videos in 4k and working online with my team. It's what I'm dreaming for.

Hey folks! 👋 I was using Figma’s Swap Library feature recently and came across a little hiccup that I think could use some improvement. You know how it works: when you swap libraries, Figma tries to match styles between the old and new library based on the token names, right? But… when there’s a name change or a slight difference in naming conventions, it just says “None found,” and that’s it. 😅 You’re left with elements still tied to the old library, which can be a bit frustrating, especially when you’ve spent time updating your naming structure to make things more organized or meaningful. What’s the Ask? Can we get an option to manually map these “None found” tokens to styles in the new library? Why This Matters This would be super handy for situations like: You’ve changed alpha/black/20 to opacity/black/20 in the new library. Sure, the names are different, but it’s still essentially the same style! Being able to manually link these would save so much hassle. You re

It would be super cool to be able to work on slides both in Slides AND in the FigJam where most workshop content is in. I imagine some kind of widget-y solution, where you can add one or more slides to the FigJam, for both viewing and editing directly in the FigJam. That way we don’t have to shuffle between numerous files, but can gather everything related to the project in a repository kind of format. That’s all. On my wishlist ✨

ya’ll I am in the weeds right now. 😩 my fellow designer and i audit each other’s designs to make sure we’ve covered all our bases as looking at your own design for months makes you blind to some things 🫠 this means we “@” each other and make comments on any place that is missing a variable, needs a design tweak, or addresses logic concerns. you know what this also means? 100+ comments in one Figma file across multiple pages wherever we have assets built problems: i try to resolve comments one at a time in the order that they were commented. this means i open and close the comment panel. once i close it, the scroll resets and i have to scroll all the way down and manually search for the comment i was just on. I can type a keyword - but I’m trying to also resolve the next comment where i’m mentioned. although you can open a comment within a mini window and toggle back and forth through the comments in this window, it automatically closes when you resolve it instead of go

Good morning ! Given that we can put keywords in a description for each variant, is it possible to display the variants directly in the asset list, in relation to the words entered and present in the description? Because currently if we enter a description in each variant of a component, when we type a search with words present in a description of a variant, it only displays the main component directly and not the direct variant. Thx you !

When working with local variables and tokens I find myself constantly opening and closing the local variables panel. It would be nice to have a shortcut added for displaying and hiding that panel. If there is not a shortcut added in first version, then this action could be listed in the MacOS menu bar as a command, so that a custom MacOS shortcut could be added,

Create tags that can be added to post it notes for user research analysis

Add support for mobile configuration profiles on macOS. These are profiles that can be deployed to computers to centrally manage application settings in a secure, consistent, and tamper-resistant way.Currently, settings can only be managed by administrators by placing a plist file in ~/Library/Preferences or /Library/Preferences. This approach requires additional overhead, as admins must package and deploy scripts or installer files to enforce configurations. It also introduces risk, since users can modify or overwrite these preference files locally.Supporting mobile configuration profiles would allow these settings to be defined and enforced via standard macOS device management workflows (e.g., MDM). Profile-based settings are stored in the system’s managed preferences database and applied through the configuration profiles framework, rather than relying on user-editable plist files. This ensures settings are enforced at the system level and cannot be easily altered by end users.Apple

 Mostly I like to use figma on browser (with fullscreen) just because it has more space, because there is no tabbar on browser. So, my suggestion is, there should be an option to hide topbar (or tabbar) on figma app, so users on smaller screen like macbook air will have more canvas view. Most people keep open a single tab, Why to waste entire screen width with tabbar?.Something like “Dock” on mac os. You can hide it, but when mouse hovers on that area it will be shown.  

Inputs are one of the most common UI design elements out there. But when you have to use them in a prototype there isn’t a good way to show what they look like when entering text. It’d also be great if we could trigger validation events like on a password input for example. This would bring more fidelity to my prototypes than just about anything.
