How do I fetch a Figma file structure?
Short answer: You can get figma file in Figma by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Figma Get Figma File action to a workflow, map its 1 input from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.
Inputs
The fields this action accepts.
Every field can be mapped from an upstream trigger, AI step, table row, or hard-coded literal.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
File Key fileKey | string | Required | From the Figma file URL: figma.com/file/{fileKey}/... |
Sample request
{"fileKey": "{{trigger.fileKey}}"}
Returns
{"name": "My Design","version": "123456","document": {"id": "0:0","name": "Document","type": "DOCUMENT"},"lastModified": "2026-04-11T10:00:00Z"}
Use these fields in downstream nodes for routing, logging, or error handling.

FAQ
Questions about Get Figma File.
What does the Get Figma File action do in Figma?
Returns the file's node tree (canvases, frames, components, text), styles, and components. For "extract design tokens for our design system" or "validate this design has the right structure" introspection workflows.
What inputs does Get Figma File require?
Required: File Key. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Figma returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Figma returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Get Figma File support batch operations?
Run Get Figma File inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Figma's rate limits.
