Hey!

 

How can I transfer the AI generated Prototype in Figma Make to Figma Design and continue editing it manually there?

Hi everyone, thank you for all your thoughtful feedback!

We’re excited to share an update that could help right now: Teams can now bring their Make previews directly into Figma Design as editable layers 🎉

Thanks for helping us make Figma Make even better! Thank you 💜

Update (not solved):

Hey Tim,
It is currently not possible to transfer designs or files from Figma Make back to Figma Design. Although you can attach Figma Design files to your Figma Make prompts, the reverse is not supported — Figma Make files, functional prototypes, or web apps cannot be brought back into Figma Design.

I’ve passed your request along internally. While we can’t promise it will be implemented, please know your feedback is greatly appreciated and will be considered for future updates.

Feel free to check our Releases page to stay updated on all major product news. Thanks!

+1 I had this same question/request too. AI like magic patterns already does it with a Figma plugin.

yes would be great e.g. for libary creation or to create components that can be reused in other projects

+1 to this request. It would help designers to expand thier ideations done on Make even more precisely in the design tool. Also, I’ve realized while expanding on an idea Figma Make gets slower and slower as we add context beyond one screen.

+1 I have been looking everywhere for this. Can’t believe it doesn’t exist already.

I made a quick and dirty vsix extension for VS code/cursor/ws etc. Clone repo, install vsix, command shift P and type figma make add… then select your zip file. It resolves any decompression issues as well as the package.json dependency versioning imports. apologies if anyone has issues, its a hotfix but works fine for me.  Happy coding :) https://github.com/spetro511/figma-make-scaffolder

I need this as well.

Specifically for documenting user flows as testable scenarios.

Figma Make is great for testable prototypes, however, I need to ~*document*~ that test, and I prefer to do that in Figma Design. Being able to export the Make back to Design would be ideal.

Could you possible consider making this a Figma extension wherein you upload the Figma make file and have it insert the designs? This is unfortunately not scalable for our team. :(  But we really need something like this.

+1! Making the flow seamless between the different tools is a make or break feature set for our team.

+1 to this request - i do UX/information architecture and the protyping is so incredibly helpful, but i have to send it back to the design team, who then has to build out the whole thing from scratch as a design file.
