Bulk Text Editor - Import

About this plugin

Bulk Text Editor – Import is the second half of a streamlined content-editing workflow for Figma.

Export all text from your Figma file using Bulk Text Editor – Export, update the content in a spreadsheet (Excel, Google Sheets, or CSV), and then use this plugin to re-import and apply changes to every matching text layer — automatically.

No more manual copy-paste. No more missed updates. No more late-night find-and-replace.
