How to connect Podio and Figma

Create a New Scenario to Connect Podio and Figma

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 Podio, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Podio or Figma will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Podio or Figma, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Podio Node

Select the Podio node from the app selection panel on the right.

Set Up the Podio and Figma 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 Podio, Figma, 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 Podio and Figma integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Podio and Figma (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.

Most powerful ways to connect Podio and Figma

Podio + Figma + Slack: When a Podio item is updated to a specific stage, a comment is posted to the Figma file. Then a notification is sent to a Slack channel to inform the design team.

Figma + Podio + Google Drive: When a Figma file is updated, the updated file is uploaded to a specific Google Drive folder, and the Podio item linked to the file gets updated with the new file.
