How to get a Figma personal access token
Follow these steps to create a personal access token in Figma.
- Sign in to your Figma account.
- Open Figma developers: personal access tokens.
- Click Get personal access token.
- Enter a label for the token if Figma prompts you.
- Copy the token value and store it somewhere secure.
When you may need personalAccessToken
Most Grida products use built-in Figma authentication, but some workflows still need an explicit personalAccessToken.
Common cases:
- internal or beta workflows that have not yet adopted the full OAuth flow
- scripts or tools that access the Figma API directly
- workflows where you temporarily need to authenticate against a different Figma account
Security note
Treat your personal access token like a password. Do not paste it into public documents, screenshots, or issue threads.
