Before you start
Who can use this feature
Users on any Figma team or plan.
Your signup method will determine whether you can update your email address and password in Figma.
Your account is how you access Figma. There are three ways to register or authenticate your account in Figma:
- With an email address and password
- Using your Google account (Google SSO)
- Using your company email via SAML SSO
Your signup method will determine whether you can update your email address and password in Figma.
Email address and password
Update your Email Address and Password in your account Settings.
- Open the File Browser
- Click on your name in the top-left
- Go to the Settings tab
- Update your details as required:
- Email: Click the Change email link underneath your email address.
- Password: Click the Change password link to reset your password.
- Click Save to apply your changes.
Google SSO
When you sign up for Figma via Google SSO, your email address and password will be Managed by Google. This means that you won't be able to update your email address or password in Figma.
If you want to change your Google email address or password, you will need to do this in your Google account. For detailed instructions, follow the Google Support links below:
- Change or reset your password by Google Support.
- Change your username or email address by Google Support.
Switch from Google SSO to email and password
If your email address and password are "Managed by Google", you won't be able to update them in Figma. To change the email or password on your Figma account, you'll need to switch to logging in via email and password.
You can do this by resetting your password. This will also prevent you from logging in via Google SSO in the future.
To reset your password, you'll need to log out of Figma, or access Figma from another browser.
- Visit the Figma website and click the Sign In button.
- Click the Forgot Password? link.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to request a password reset email.
- Click the link in your password reset email. Figma will prompt you to enter a new password.
You can now log in to your Figma account using your email address and new password. If you want to change the email address or password associated with your account, you can do that now.
SAML SSO
If you log in to Figma with your company email address and password, your Organization's SAML SSO identity provider will manage your login details.
We recommend contacting your IT department, or an Organization Admin, for help on updating your email address or password there.
