Approve plugins in an organization
Before you start
Who can use this feature
Available on the Organization and Enterprise plans.
Only organization admins can publish private plugins to the organization.
Plugins are third-party scripts or applications that extend the functionality of Figma. By default, members can run plugins without approval from an organization admin.
With plugin approval enabled, organization admins can choose a list of allowed plugins for their organization. Members will need to request approval to run plugins that aren't on the list.
Members can still view public plugins outside this list, but not run them in organization files. Organization members can also use any private organization plugins.
Enable approved plugins list
- Open Figma in the file browser.
- Select Admin Settings in the sidebar and click the Settings tab.
- In the Other section, toggle on Plugin approval.
Note: Figma reviews every plugin that members publish to the Figma Community for overall quality. Due to the nature of the plugin development process, Figma isn't able to perform extensive reviews of a plugin's privacy and security.
Figma does not review plugins that are shared privately within the organization. Learn more about our Plugin Review Guidelines.
Add approved plugins
Adding a plugin to the approve list allows organization members to run these plugins in the organization space.

- Select Admin settings in the sidebar.
- Select Resources at the top of the page, then select Approved plugins.
