Sheets to Figma

About this plugin

Bring your data — and visuals — to life with Sheets to Figma, the ultimate bridge between spreadsheets and creative design.

This plugin connects your Google Sheets or Excel data directly to your Figma projects, automatically updating text and images using markers. Whether you're managing product catalogs, marketing materials, or localization projects, Sheets to Figma helps you keep every element in perfect sync — no manual edits required.

🚀 What is Sheets to Figma

Sheets to Figma is a smart automation tool that links structured spreadsheet data to your design content. With just a few clicks, it imports text, numbers, and even image URLs from your Google Sheets or Excel files and updates your Figma project accordingly. It's the simplest way to keep your layouts up to date and aligned with real data sources.

🧩 Supported formats and data sources

The plugin supports a wide range of data sources and workflows:

Google sheet to Figma — sync live content directly from online spreadsheets.

Excel to Figma — import .xls or .xlsx files for offline work.

CSV to Figma — drag & drop CSV files directly into the plugin.

Excel sheets to Figma project — connect multi-tab documents with complex data.

Excel data to Figma — map structured fields directly to design layers.

XLS to Figma / XLSX to Figma — maintain flexibility between local and cloud setups.

Whether you work online or offline, the plugin ensures smooth data synchronization.

🧠 How it works

Each Figma text field or image can be connected to a column in your spreadsheet using a simple marker system with asterisk (*). For example:

Text layer name: *product_name, *price

Image layer (Frame or Rectangle): *image_url

Once linked, Sheets to Figma scans your Figma project, finds all layers with matching markers, and automatically updates them based on your spreadsheet content.

✅ Example:

If your Google Sheet has columns "product_name", "price", and "image_url", and your Figma project contains layers named *product_name, *price, *image_url, clicking Import replaces all of them instantly — text and images alike.

🖼️ Image replacement

Beyond text, Sheets to Figma can dynamically replace images in your design.

Just include image links (direct URLs or Base64 data) in your Google Sheets or Excel file, and the plugin will update the corresponding Frames or Rectangles in Figma. Simply name your image layer with a marker like *image_url.
