Who can use this feature
Education (K-12), Organization, Government, and Enterprise plans
Organization admins only
As an organization admin, you can manage who joins your organization, how people access and share work, which resources and features they use, and how your organization is billed.
From the file browser, select Admin in the left sidebar to open your organization’s admin settings.
Understand your access to organization content
Your admin role gives you controls for managing the organization and resolving access issues.
Manage file and folder permissions
You can change permissions on applicable files, folders, and teams, even when you only have view access. For example, you can help someone regain access when a file owner is unavailable.
| What you need to do | What you can do as an admin |
|---|---|
| Change who can access a resource | Invite people or user groups, remove access, change view or edit permissions, and update audience access from the share modal. |
| Get access to a file you can’t open | Open a direct link to the file, then use Get admin access to give yourself edit access. Figma emails the file owner to notify them. |
| Find files and folders | Browse resources you’ve been invited to or can reach through audience access. Your admin role doesn’t make every file and folder appear in the file browser. |
| Change ownership | Admin permission controls don’t include transferring ownership or adding or removing owners. Only the current owner can transfer ownership of a file or folder. |
Learn how to change permissions as an admin.
Manage connected folders
Connected folders support collaboration between organizations or teams on separate plans. Admins from both parties can view the connected folder in Admin, but the host has more control over its settings. For example, host admins manage its security settings, while either party can disconnect it.
Learn about connected folders and each party’s admin controls.
Manage people and access
Use the People tab to review members and guests, manage seats, and remove access when someone leaves your organization.
- View members and guests
- Set approval settings for new seats
- Remove people from your organization
- Manage drafts of removed users
Manage user groups
Use user groups to share files, folders, and teams with several people at once. From Admin > People > User groups, you can create groups, manage membership, and edit group details.
On the Enterprise plan, you can also control who creates user groups and sync groups from your identity provider through SCIM.
Learn how to create and manage user groups.
Delegate admin responsibilities
Organization admins manage settings across the organization. Team admins manage individual teams. On the Enterprise plan, workspace admins and billing group admins can take on responsibilities within their assigned scope.
Learn about admin roles and their responsibilities.
Manage domains and authentication
Add people from your company’s domains
Use domain capture to automatically add people with matching company email addresses to your organization. Joining your organization doesn’t remove their access to other teams or organizations.
If you don’t enable domain capture, you can verify your domains and manually find and add people with Figma accounts outside your organization.
Choose how members log in
Note: Figma for Government requires SAML SSO.
Choose which login methods members can use, including single sign-on (SSO) through an identity provider.
Learn how to set your organization’s login and authentication method.
Provision users with SCIM
Use SCIM to synchronize user information between your identity provider and Figma. On the Enterprise plan, you can also manage seat types through SCIM.
Learn how to set up automatic provisioning via SCIM.
Manage teams and workspaces
Teams organize folders and files within your organization. From Admin, you can manage team settings and review team membership.
You can see the names and owners of hidden teams. Seeing a hidden team in Admin doesn’t mean you can browse all of its content. Learn about teams and the actions each admin role can perform.
Organize teams into workspaces
Available on the Enterprise plan.
Workspaces group teams, people, and resources within your organization. Use them to organize work across business units or departments and delegate responsibilities to workspace admins.
Learn how to manage workspaces.
Manage shared resources
Help people find and use resources that support your organization’s work.
| Resource | What you can manage |
|---|---|
| Libraries | Manage libraries for your organization or workspaces. |

Manage plugin and widget use. Note: Private plugins and widgets can't be published on Figma for Government. |
| Generative plugins and shaders | Manage access to generative plugins and shaders. |

Configure security and governance
Use organization controls to manage sharing, external access, and account security. Each linked article explains the plan requirements and scope of its controls.

- Set an idle session timeout to log inactive members out earlier. Available on the Enterprise plan.

Manage billing and AI spending
Note: In-product billing management doesn't apply to Figma for Government. Billing and total seat counts are handled in advance.
Manage subscriptions, invoices, and seats for your organization. A person’s seat determines which products and features they can use, and changing their seat can affect billing.
Learn how to manage billing on the Organization and Enterprise plans.
Manage AI credits
Review AI credit usage and manage additional paid credits for your organization. You can also set individual paid-credit limits. These limits don’t change the credits included with a person’s seat.
On the Enterprise plan, you can set default individual limits for your organization and billing groups, and allocate paid credits across billing groups.
