In Figma, right-click on any Section, Frame, or Page. Select “Copy/Paste as > Copy link to selection” from the drop-down menu. 2. In the prompt box, click **+** → **Import from Figma**. 3. Paste your **Figma URL** 4. Click **↵ Go**. *** #### Authorize Figma (First Time Only) * A modal will prompt you to connect Maker to your Figma account. * Once authorized, Maker remembers your credentials for future imports. *** #### Use Multiple Breakpoints * In Figma, create a frame for each breakpoint you want (for example Desktop, Tablet, and Mobile) within one section. * Maker detects breakpoints two ways: by frame name (containing "desktop," "tablet," or "mobile") or by frame width (for example 1440px, 768px, 375px). If your frames already follow a width convention, you don't need to rename anything. * Share a **link to the section** as in Step 1, and Maker will import all breakpoints in one job. **Only have a desktop design?** Maker will automatically generate mobile and tablet versions for you. *** #### Run the Import * After you hit enter or click on the arrow to proceed, Maker will begin the design import. * In a few seconds, your imported project will appear in the preview pane. *** #### Tweak & Add Interactivity * Use prompts to make edits or add interactivity. * If the same section shows up across your Desktop, Tablet, and Mobile versions, editing the text once will usually update it everywhere, instead of needing to edit each breakpoint separately. *** #### FAQ
Do I need to name my Figma frames "Desktop," "Tablet," and "Mobile" No, Maker detects breakpoints by frame name or by frame width, so if your frames are already named by size (like home(1440), home(768), home(320)), they'll be picked up automatically.
What if I only have a desktop design in Figma? Maker will automatically generate mobile and tablet versions for you based on the desktop layout.
Why do some sections look different after import than they do in Figma? Complex sections occasionally get flattened into a single image instead of being imported as editable elements. If this happens, ask Maker to rebuild that section, and it will recreate it as editable content.
Why does the text look cut off or overflowing after import? Auto-generated mobile and tablet breakpoints adjust column layout automatically, but if the font does not re-size, prompt Maker to adjust sizing where needed.
Are tablet layouts as reliable as mobile and desktop? Tablet breakpoints are currently the least consistent of the three and may need a quick manual touch-up after import.
If I edit text in one imported section, will it update everywhere else it appears? Usually yes. If a section shows up on more than one breakpoint (for example, the same header on your Desktop, Tablet, and Mobile designs), Maker now recognizes it as the same piece of content. So editing the text in one place typically updates it across all versions, instead of you having to make the same edit three separate times. Occasionally, if this does not happen, you will need to individually select those sections and elements and either prompt Maker or use the visual editor to make those edits.
What's the difference between clicking "Import from Figma" and pasting a Figma link into a prompt? Clicking Import from Figma always uses Maker's own built in importer. Pasting a Figma link directly into a prompt instead will use Figma's MCP connector, if you have it connected.
What's the recommended way to import from Figma for the most accurate results? We recommend using the Import from Figma button (as described above) rather than pasting a Figma link directly into a prompt. It uses Maker's own built-in importer, which is tuned for accurate fonts and font weights, complete image assets, and clean layouts that stay true to your original design, even in more complex sections. Pasting a link directly into a prompt instead uses Figma's MCP connector, which can sometimes add elements that weren't in the original design or introduce other unintended changes.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.maker.co/features/figma.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
