With Miro, we are able to copy cells from a google sheet/excel, then paste them into Miro where each cell becomes an individual sticky note with respective colors applied.

This is great for transcription and affinity diagramming during research.

I’d LOVE to see this in FigJam 🙂

We used to have this before as a Bulk add post-it function and it was so useful. Shame it’s gone now! ☹

Hope it comes back soon! 😇

I am a UX researcher, and I use FigJam for analysis quite a lot. Since you introduced table feature and removed copy/paste from spreadsheet cell into sticky notes feature FigJam have become pain to work with.

FigJam was not as convenient for the sorting and analysis type of activities as other digital boards and now it got worth instead of getting better

Big fan of Figma and FigJam. I use it with my team for design and research. I big part of that process is creating sticky notes from csv sheets. Is there a video, or training I can attend to optimize our experience?

This was THE Number 1 feature for FigJam, that made the whole agency move over from Miro. Please give us a way to use the CSV-to-Sticky-Notes again! I see now there is some kind of plugin, but it is a very drastic change of functionality- I’m used to have Figma / FigJam improving with each update, not killing useful features, you might like to consider this next time, @Figma_Support!

Just submitting a comment in hopes this issue might be boosted. I cannot tell you what a pain point not being able to paste as stickies from a spreadsheet is. Not being able to do so has added - and I’m not exaggerating - hours of work. Please help - this issue will for sure drive me to look for outside alternatives for collaborative analysis.
