Add images and videos in bulk

Place image/video allows you to import images and/or videos in bulk. You can then choose exactly where you'd like to place each file. As Figma treats images and videos as fills, you can add them to existing objects.

1. Access Place image/video from any of the following places:
• • From the menu, by searching Quick actions for Place image/video.
  • From the Shapes menu in the toolbar:
    
  • Use the keyboard shortcuts:
    MacOS: Shift-Command-K
    Windows: Shift + Ctrl + K
2. Figma will open an upload window which allows you to select your image and/or video files. Select the files you'd like to use and click Open.
   
3. Figma will show a plus cursor and a thumbnail of the first file. If you've selected multiple files, a badge will show how many files you have left to place.
   
4. You then have a few options:
• • Click on an area in the canvas to add an image/video to those co-ordinates. Figma will add the file to the canvas at its original dimensions:
    
  • Click and drag to define the dimensions of the image/video. This allows you to add the file with dimensions that are different to the original.
    
  • Select an existing object on the canvas. This will apply the image/video as a fill with the Fill mode set to Fill.
    
  • Select Place all in the menu bar to add all files to the canvas at once.
    
5. Repeat the process for any remaining images/videos. Use the Discard all button in the menu bar to discard any files that haven't been placed.
