Manage seats via SCIM

Organizations using SAML SSO can use SCIM to make sure that users have the correct billing status in Figma. To manage seat types via SCIM, you’ll need:

• Administrative access to your identity provider
• Automatic provisioning enabled

How seats work in Figma

Figma has two products: Figma design and FigJam. A person’s seat type determines their billing status for each product. There are three seat types: viewer, viewer-restricted, and full.

On the Organization and Enterprise plans, there is also a dedicated seat for Dev Mode. Dev Mode is included with full Figma design seats. It is also available as a standalone paid seat for users who don’t need the design features of Figma design.

Here are some examples of how you might provision seats for different people in your organization:

Configure seat setting

The exact process for setting a seat type depends on your identity provider. If you use Microsoft Entra ID or Okta, please use the following guides: 

• Manage seats via SCIM using Okta
• Manage seats via SCIM using Microsoft Entra ID

If you use other identity providers, we recommend working directly with them for advanced setups, like assigning users based on groups. 

Add a custom attribute to set Figma design or FigJam seat types

1. Add a custom attribute to your identity provider.
2. Choose one of the following attribute names:
   • Use figmaPermission to set seat types for Figma design.
   • Use devModePermission to set seat types for Dev Mode.
   • Use figjamPermission to set seat types for FigJam.
3. Choose one of the following values:
   • Use full or editorto assign the full seat.
   • Use viewerRestricted to assign the viewer-restricted seat.
   • Use null to assign the default seat type in the organization for new users. When the attribute is set to null, admins will be able to update the users’ seat type from Admin in Figma.
4. Set the data type to string (if applicable).
5. Set the external namespace to urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:core:2.0:User.
