Can You Transfer Ownership of Figma?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 11:42 pm

As the owner of a Figma file, you have control over who can access and edit your file. You can easily transfer ownership of a file to another user if you need to.

When you transfer ownership of a file, the new owner will be able to edit the file and invite other users to collaborate on it. They will also be able to export the file or publish it as a prototype.

To transfer ownership of a file, go to the File Menu and select “Transfer Ownership.” Then, enter the email address of the user you want to transfer ownership to. The user will need to have a Figma account in order to be able to accept the transfer.

PRO TIP: If you are thinking about transferring ownership of your Figma account, there are a few things you should know. First, when you transfer ownership, all of your files and projects will be transferred to the new owner. Secondly, you will no longer have access to your account or any of your files once the transfer is complete. Finally, make sure you trust the new owner with your account information before proceeding – they will have full control over your Figma account after the transfer is complete.

You can also transfer ownership of a file from within the collaboration settings for that file. To do this, go to the Collaborate tab and click on the “Transfer Ownership” button. Again, you will need to enter the email address of the user you want to transfer ownership to.

Once you’ve transferred ownership of a file, you will no longer have access to it. If you need to access the file again, you will need to ask the new owner to invite you back as a collaborator.
