  • In order to attach Figma designs to Jira issues, Figma for Jira needs access to the Figma API. If you haven’t previously done so, you will be asked to fill in your Figma Personal Access Token upon adding a new design.

  • After successfully saving your token, the app will start loading your Figma design.
