Knowledge
Figma
Read Figma files, comments, versions, projects, and published components from Atlas, render frames as images, and comment on files.
What this connector does
- Read a file as its pages and top-level frames, read chosen nodes, and render nodes as images.
- Read comments, leave a comment or a reply, and delete comments written by the connected account.
- Browse the projects of a team, the files of a project, the saved versions of a file, and its published components and styles.
- Read design content on request without keeping a copy of full design files.
Before you begin
- You are an owner or administrator of your Atlas workspace.
- You can sign in to your Figma account and approve access for Atlas.
- Atlas looks after the Figma app on its side, so there is nothing for you to create or copy.

Atlas asks you to reconnect
Figma can end a connection when access is revoked or a password changes. Press Reconnect on the connector page and approve the access again.
