How to connect Figma and Google contacts
Create a New Scenario to Connect Figma and Google contacts
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.
Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Figma, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Figma or Google contacts will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Figma or Google contacts, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.
Add the Figma Node
Select the Figma node from the app selection panel on the right.

Set Up the Figma and Google contacts Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Figma, Google contacts, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Figma and Google contacts integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Figma and Google contacts (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Figma and Google contacts
Figma + Google Contacts + Slack: When a Figma file is updated, specifically files that contain contact-related design elements, retrieve the corresponding contact information from Google Contacts. Then, send a notification to a designated Slack channel to inform the team about the update.
Google Contacts + Figma + Google Sheets: When a contact is updated in Google Contacts, find related Figma files using file name that contains the contact name. Log the file's version history and other details (like update timestamp) into a Google Sheet for tracking designer contributions related to that contact.
