Webflow doesn’t offer direct Figma import functionality, but there’s a handy solution: the Figma to Webflow plugin! Here’s how to leverage it for your workflow:
-
Install the Figma to Webflow Plugin: Head over to the Figma plugin library (within the Figma desktop app) and search for “Webflow.” Install the “Figma to Webflow” plugin by Webflow Labs.
-
Authorize the Plugin: After installation, run the plugin. You’ll need to authorize it to access your Webflow projects and grant it permission to transfer your designs.
-
Select and Copy Elements: In your Figma design, choose the elements you want to import into Webflow. This could be a single element, a section, or an entire page layout. With the elements selected, use the plugin to initiate the copy process.
-
Choose Webflow Destination: The plugin will prompt you to select the specific Webflow project where you want to import the Figma elements.
-
Paste into Webflow Designer: Once the copying process is complete, switch to your Webflow Designer. You can simply paste the elements onto the canvas, and Webflow will translate the Figma design into Webflow’s format, including layouts, styles, and (sometimes) basic interactions.
Additional Tips:
- The Figma to Webflow plugin works best with well-organized and layered Figma designs.
- For more complex designs or those involving intricate interactions, some manual fine-tuning might be required within Webflow after the import.
- Webflow also offers a Figma to Webflow App, which provides deeper integration and syncing capabilities between Figma design systems and Webflow projects.
By following these steps and exploring the plugin’s functionalities, you can effectively import your Figma designs into Webflow, streamlining your design-to-development workflow.

How do I export from Figma prototype to Webflow?
While the Figma to Webflow plugin can’t directly transfer interactive prototypes, it can bring over the design elements and layouts. You’ll likely need to set up interactions and animations within Webflow itself. Webflow offers its own animation and interaction capabilities.
