It seems like a very straightforward tasks. What if you want to share only certain pages of a Figma designs with shareholders or developers?
Unfortunately Figma currently only allows you to generate a unified sharing like which will automatically grant all viewers access to all pages in your Figma design.
We were initially inspired by an ongoing thread in the Figma forum and then decided to look into finding a solution that would allow Figma users to share specific pages and not just entire designs.
The Figma forum thread has over 850 upvotes at the time of this writing: https://forum.figma.com/t/giving-unique-access-to-specific-pages/455
Why do you need to share only certain pages of a Figma design?
The use-case for this are pretty obvious:
- Share only specific pages of a Figma design during developer handoff
- Share only specific pages of a Figma design with shareholders for approval
- You don’t want certain colleagues to see certain screens just yet
- … the list can probably go on and on!
How can you share only specific pages of a Figma Design?
So here’s the solution we came up with over the past few days:
Designers can simply generate a new unique share link for each Figma design. Using a separate admin link they can configure which Figma pages will be displayed or hidden. Designers can then share a new “View Only Link” with their team or colleagues, which will only contain the pages they have configured be visible.
Here’s how the dashboard looks like in action:
Changes in your design are automatically updated in the tool, so there’s no need to re-create a new share link every time you make changes.
Once you’ve generated your first “Share Link” we will automatically send you an admin link which allows you to later edit which pages are visible and which pages aren’t.
Create a sharable Figma like only for a few page
In order to create your new shareable Figma URL simply head over to our tool:
And then enter your email address and a link to your Figma designs.
Note: As of right now the Figma design needs to be viewable publicly.
After you click on “Share my design”, you’ll be redirected to the edit mode where you can specify which pages will be visible and which will be hidden.
The left hand panel will list out all the pages in your Figma design. Simply hide certain by clicking on the “Eye” icon. The settings will be stored automatically, so there’s no need to save at any given time.
The tool should be very straightforward to use.
Once you’ve selected all the pages that you want to hide or display, click on the “Copy” button in the bottom left corner to copy your new sharable link.
You can now share that link with your team or clients to only give them limited access to certain pages in your Figma design.
