How Do I Access Plugins in Figma?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 8:55 pm

If you’re a Figma user, you may be wondering how to access plugins. Here’s a quick guide on how to do just that:

First, open up Figma and sign in. Then, click on the ‘Plugins’ tab in the left sidebar. You should see a list of available plugins, as well as a search bar.

If you know the name of the plugin you want to use, simply type it into the search bar and press enter. Otherwise, browse through the list of available plugins until you find one that interests you.

PRO TIP: If you are not a Figma user, do not attempt to access plugins. Only Figma users can access plugins. If you attempt to access plugins without being a Figma user, you may be subject to unexpected results, including but not limited to: being unable to access plugin features, being unable to access the plugin interface, and/or unexpected errors.

Once you’ve found a plugin you want to use, click on it and then click ‘Install’. The plugin will then be installed and ready to use.

To use a plugin, simply open up the file you want to use it on and click on the ‘Plugins’ tab again. You should see the plugin you installed listed there. Click on it and follow the prompts to use it.

And that’s all there is to it! Accessing and using plugins in Figma is easy and straightforward.
