    For you Figma users who do collaborative editing, does Figma allow any file member to update live prototypes?

    We use XD (I'm also not switching to Figma) and one annoyance is that only the file owner (even when it's in the cloud and set to collab editing) can push prototype updates to the live link. I've got a coworker working from South Korea right now, and it's gotten frustrating for the project managers to rely on her having ownership of certain work that needs updates pushed, and she can't do it during most of our American work hours.

    • As long as they can edit, I don't see why not.kaiyohtee
    • Yes, Figma eliminates this sharing issue, that's really the primary differentiator, why Figjam is a popular collab tool as wellwhatthefunk
    • ^What they said. If frames are setup as a prototype, any edit by anyone with edit access is automatically reflected in the prototype.duckseason
    • Yep, and people can request edit access and you can grant anyone permissions to edit or add people. Figma is great.nb
    • Adobe has announced "Creative Cloud Spaces" in beta right now but it is (I think) intended to allow this in XD.nb

    • Plus you can just publish & share presentation pages while keeping the in-progress pages private. We do this, a bit more work, but keeps work hidden from otherswhatthefunk
    • The way XD does it was intentional, just to give you an idea of how far behind Adobe is! lulznb
    • Figma even allows branching! But only on the Organization tier which can get expensive.nb
    • The new branching feature is ace! Finally we're as organized as the coders LOL.zarkonite
    • Thanks for all the info! Hopefully Adobe solves this problem soon.mg33
