You can generate FigJam diagrams directly from ChatGPT and open them in FigJam to edit, collaborate, and share. This integration helps you turn ideas from a chat into diagrams you can continue working on with your team in FigJam.
Generate a FigJam diagram in ChatGPT
ChatGPT Free, Plus, and Pro plan users can generate FigJam diagrams in their chats.
- Open a conversation in ChatGPT.
- Ask for a diagram. This can be a direct prompt (”Create me a FigJam/Figma flow chart”) or an indirect prompt (”Help me visualize this data”). For indirect prompts, ChatGPT will decide based on context if a FigJam diagram will be useful.
- If you haven’t connected Figma to ChatGPT before, you’ll be prompted to set up the connection.
- ChatGPT will return a FigJam diagram embedded directly in the chat.
The FigJam diagram in ChatGPT supports text (no images) and basic node shapes.
In the embedded view, you can pan, zoom, and open a full-screen view. You can also prompt ChatGPT to regenerate a new diagram.

Open and edit the diagram in FigJam
Select Open in Figma (mobile) or Edit in Figma (desktop) from the chat to continue working in FigJam.
- If you’re signed in to a Figma account, you can claim the file and add it to your drafts (and select a team if you belong to more than one).
- If you’re not signed in, you can log in or create a new account to claim the file and add it to your drafts.
Files created from ChatGPT that haven’t been claimed are public and viewable by anyone with the link. Once you log in, sign up, or add the file to your drafts, it becomes private to you.
Note: You can open and view FigJam files on mobile, but we recommend using desktop for editing.
