Go to Figma & open the Figma fdesign you’d like to attach to your Jira issue. In Figma, click the share button at the top right off your screen. Click on copy link and a share link will be copied to your clipboard.

Paste the URL of your Figma design into the input box & click on Add.

In order to attach Figma designs to Jira issues, Figma for Jira needs access to the Figma API. If you haven’t previously done so, you will be asked to fill in your Figma Personal Access Token upon adding a new design. After successfully saving your token, the app will start loading your Figma design.

The Figma design has now been added to your issue

 

Due to Jira Data Center limitations, it is currently not possible to add Figma designs upon creating a new issue
