Plugin settings

The Settings page is where you can make personalized configurations to the plugin.

The plugin remembers your settings across all Figma files.
For settings that change by project, like your active Sync Provider, you'll want to check the Settings Page each time you open the plugin in a new Figma file.

1. License key

When you upgrade to a pro licence for Tokens Studio, you add the key here.

  • Be sure to press the Add licence key button when you are finished.

It's a good idea to keep a copy of your licence key handy wherever you safely store your passwords.

You can always grab it again by logging into your Tokens Studio account

If you haven't upgraded to pro yet, select the GET PRO button by the licence key input to open a browser page with more details.

2. Sync providers

By default, Tokens Studio will store your design tokens locally in the Figma file you are working in, but their true power is unleashed when they can be synced with code.

You can manage your sync providers from the Settings Page.

→ Read the Sync Provider Overview to get started. #add-doc-link/sync-overview

Token format

To support moving towards the W3C Specifications for Design Tokens, as managed by the Design Tokens Community Group (DTCG), you can choose a Design Token Format that defines how tokens are written in their JSON files.

Read the W3C DTCG Token Format guide to get started.

3. Language settings

The plugin supports multiple languages thanks to the generous contributions of our open-source community members!

Use the Language Selector to choose from:

  • English
  • French
  • Dutch
  • Chinese
  • Hindi
  • Spanish

4. Base font size setting

The plugin sets the Base Font Size to 16px by default. To change this value, use the Change button and follow the prompts.

Read the Base Font Size guide.

5. Permission for session recording

Enabling this setting creates a unique ID that can be shared with the Tokens Studio support team to help troubleshoot issues you might be having.

The recorded telemetry data collected is anonymized and is not shared with any third parties.

You can leave this setting disabled until a support team asks you to turn it on.

6. Reset onboarding

If it's been a while since you used the plugin, this setting will open the onboarding content we show new users to the plugin.

These settings have moved

The plugin's V2 release made some major changes to the way we work with Styles and Variables in Figma.

As a result, we moved the related settings to the new Export to Figma workflow, in the Options menu.

  • Ignore first part of token name for styles.
  • Prefix styles with active theme name.

→ Read the Export to Figma guide for more details #add-doc-link/export-options
