Projects in Figma are organized within teams. Each team has its own members and permissions, so moving a project from one team to another may change who has access to it.

Only members of the new team and individuals who are invited to the project will have access to it after it has moved.

Note: Before you can move a project to a different team, you need to:

  • Join both teams
  • Have can edit permissions in both teams

You can check your access by navigating to each team and clicking the  Members icon. Next to your name, you should see can view or can edit.

Move a project

  1. From the file browser, navigate into the project you’d like to move.
  2. Click the dropdown menu next to the project name and select Move...
  3. Choose a new team for the project.

Tip: While browsing a team, you can also right-click on a project and select Move project from the menu that appears.

Caution: If the Move... or Move project menu items are unavailable, it may be because the project has view-only or invite-only permissions. You can check the permissions of your project by clicking the Share button on the project page.

A team admin or the project owner can change the project to have less restricted permissions, which will enable the menu options to move the project.
