New Comment (Instant) on Figma

Description:Emit new event when someone comments on a file

Figma Overview#

The Figma API unlocks the power to automate and integrate design workflows, enabling both designers and developers to extract assets, update designs, and manage files programmatically. By leveraging the Figma API on Pipedream, you can create automated processes that sync design updates with other tools, notify team members of changes, or feed design information into other parts of your digital ecosystem.

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Figma	`figmaApp`	`app`	This component uses the Figma app.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.

Trigger Authentication#

Figma uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Figma account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Figma and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Figma API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
