Figma Personal Acces Token
In order for the Figma for Jira app to work we need a Personal Access Token. This token allows us to access the Figma API and retrieve all your Figma files/frames.We PRO supports Figma Personal Access Tokens to get access to files through the Figma API. Personal Access Tokens are linked to a specific Figma user account, meaning that any file that you wish to include needs to be accessible by the user account associated with the token ('can view' rights).
With this in mind we advise you to create a generic Figma account for Figma for Jira (for example figmaforjira@yourdomain.com) and to create an access token for this account. By creating a generic account the access token is not linked to your personal account.

Login to your Figma account
Head to Help & Account from the top left-menu inside Figma and click on Account Settings
Find the Personal Access Tokens section
Click generate token below and hit “Save”
Manage authentication settings
To allow Jira admins to manage the authentication settings we created the authentication page. Navigate to Jira Administration > Manage Apps > Figma for Jira > Authentication to find this page.
