FAQs

Does the zeroheight/Figma integration sync all Figma layers?

Yes.

If I delete a design file from Resourecs, is the content removed from my styleguide?

The content will still be in the styleguide, but it will be considered "orphaned" and cannot be updated.

If I re-add a file that was previously deleted, and then I continue to update and sync in zeroheight, will it update the previously synced content?

No, if you re-add your design file, it will import new content altogether. Any content previously in your styleguide will not be updated and need to be readded.
