"Import plugin from manifest" does not work inside FigJam


Chuanqi_Sun

When I’m inside a FigJam, right click > Development > Import plugin from manifest… has no effect. The selected plugin does not appear in the list of plugins under Development section. I was able to repro the issue with a vanilla plugin generated by Figma

Additional observations:

  1. The plugin does appear in the Figma files and account Settings > Plugins tab. The issue is only with FigJam

  1. I tried uninstall, reinstall Figma. No luck

  2. I tried clearing Figma cache but it throws error.

  1. No log observed in developer console or internal developer console
  2. This issue has also affected the plugins I have already published. They appear as local file is missing. Clicking “Locate local version” and select the local manifest file has no effect in FigJam.

Figma version: 116.9.5, I also repro-ed the issue on another PC machine running 116.6.3

Since today, May 25, local developing plugins are not running in FigJam. I get the notification that the plugin is loaded, but nothing else happens, nor the plugin appears in the plugins/developer context menu.

Thank you for reporting this to us and for the detailed report! Our engineering team is actively investigating the issue to determine its root cause.

Update: I have my friend tried it with his Mac and it has the same repro. So something seems to be seriously broken across all platforms. I think other developers might be impacted by this too.

Same here! Our team is also blocked by this. Local FigJam plugins are no longer showing up 😦
