I’m managing a local design system for one workspace at my company, which is based on a global library managed by another team. My design system has some colours that are not part of the global library, so I’ve created the variables in our local library and am in the process of assigning tokens. However, I would like to be able to create tokens that refer to colour variables from the global library
Hypothetical example: Colour “sunny” in the global design system is mapped to “background-accent” token. In my local DS, I’d like to create a token called “notification” and have it refer to “sunny” so that if it changes, it’ll be reflected in my DS as well.
The global library (and many others) is enabled for the local DS I’m working on, and I can access its colours and text styles in the usual ways except when assigning tokens. It seems like I should be able to, according to the screenshot below, but no other libraries appear in the dropdown. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
