    It’s now easier to add references when using Make Image and Edit Image in Figma. Previously reference images could only be uploaded, but now you can:

    • Click the new "Add reference" button on almost any node on the canvas (images, vectors, frames, components)
    • Copy/paste into the prompt box (from the canvas or outside Figma)
    • Drag and drop files into the prompt box

    Available in all Figma products where you can make or edit images with AI: Figma Design, Draw, Buzz, Slides, and FigJam.

    More tools, less switching in Draw

    Figma Draw

    Draw now surfaces the tools designers reach for most without leaving the mode they're already working in. New expressive controls expand what's possible natively, alongside the core features that were always there but harder to find.

    Features that were always there are now easier to find and use.

    • Apply auto layout directly in Draw, without switching to Design mode
    • See component, instance, and text layer types labeled inline in the layers panel
    • Use the new dedicated text on a path tool to add text to an existing path, or drag on an empty canvas to create text on a circle
    • Right-click to separate text and vector into independent layers

    New brush and texture controls bring more precision and creative range to Draw.

    • Cmd-click or ctrl-click any stroke to sample its color, weight, and brush or dynamic style
    • Set a gradient color and blend mode from the Draw toolbelt before starting a stroke
    • Control X and Y noise and texture independently to create directional effects

    Table formatting, diagramming, canvas navigation, and template publishing in FigJam just got a bit better with the following updates:

    • Cell merging: Merge adjacent cells while preserving content from the upper-left cell.
    • Text color in tables: Apply distinct text colors within table cells or shapes.
    • Improved arrows: Wider routing margins, cleaner arrowheads, and clearer dashed endpoints.
    • Drag-to-flip shapes: Drag any resize handle across a shape to flip it. Content stays readable.
    • Recenter button: Quickly find your way back to your work on large canvases.
    • Default zoom decrease: Start slightly more zoomed out for better board visibility.

    With new MCP tool updates and FigJam skills, you can now generate architecture diagrams, ERDs, and more in FigJam directly from your coding agent — including into files you're already working in.

    • Generate diagrams: Use the updated generate_diagram tool (remote server only) to create architecture diagrams and ERDs, with new connector types built for database relationships. Or paste Mermaid.js code directly onto the canvas to render it as a diagram.
    • Use new skills: Read and write directly to a FigJam board with the figma-use-figjam foundational skill. Workflow skills like generate-project-plan turn docs, codebases, and conversations into visual boards.
    • Get context: Use get_figjam to summarize an existing FigJam board, surface insights, or draft next steps.

    Available in MCP-supported clients. Current pricing and rate limits apply.

    Explore how FigJam's new MCP skills help you visualize the code your agent is writing.

    Plan Access Tokens (PLANTs) are now in beta

    Update
    Figma
    Development

    Plan Access Tokens (PLANTs) are now in beta — a new authentication method for server-to-server integrations and internal automation. Tokens are scoped to a plan rather than a user, so they remain active even if the token creator's account is deactivated.

    Available to admins on Organization and Enterprise plans.

    • Better security and governance — plan-scoped access with admin controls over token creation and usage
    • Improved reliability — tokens survive personnel changes, keeping automations running
    • Enhanced visibility — clear audit trails showing which tokens are accessing your data
    • Higher rate limits — better suited for high-scale automation workloads
