This NEW feature is unique. Thanks to Microsoft DevOps pipeline you can export your Figma file to JSON via Figma REST API. Means, that you can make your design system in Figma file, export it via DevOps pipeline to your GIT, and import it to any Figma account through the DesignKit 2.5.

Let me show you the steps:

Firstly, you need to create your agent to your notebook/desktop.

⁠

⁠

2. Secondly, you need to create GIT repository

⁠

⁠

It does not matter, how your output JSON file is named. I am using "output.json".

3. Thirdly, create your pipeline in DevOps with a particular Figma page ID.

⁠

⁠

I have saved my concrete Figma page ID under a variables. My page contains canvas components, but it is up to you, what kind of components you will have saved.

Why is the features awesome? If your team uses Figma daily in your company, it is a big chance that somebody could break your design up. Another situation could be that somebody loose a Figma account, where your design was saved.

If you backup your design system via DevOps pipeline to a JSON file on your GIT, you will be able to return to any previous version and import it via DesignKit 2.5 under every user account.

Imported Figma file is able to recognise if your original file includes component properties, variants, or located under Frame.

Or you can use
