Feature request - Improve seat allocation workflow

New feature request regarding inviting new people a Figma organization.

Current way of working

  1. The Figma Admin adds a new person - usually a guest - to our Figma organization using their email address.

  2. The guest accepts the invitation to the Figma organization

  3. Figma Admin assigns edit seats to the new guest - Figma and/or Dev Mode or FigJam

  4. The guest can finally edit their work files

In this journey, there is an unnecessary delay due to the fact that the Figma Admin has to intervene twice. This delay represents a lot of time at the end - we’re talking about several dozen guest additions per year.

Ideal way of working

  1. The Figma Admin adds a person to our Figma organization and assigns editing rights by default from the People panel when it’s in Pending stage

  2. The guest accepts the invitation in the Figma organization and the seats pre-assigned to them are automatically activated

  3. The guest can edit their work files

It would make life infinitely easier on the Figma Admin side, especially in large companies.
