What Happens When You Remove Someone From Figma?

When you’re working on a project in Figma, collaboration is key. Everyone needs to be on the same page and have access to the same information. That’s why it might become necessary at times to remove someone from the project.

Removing a user from Figma can have a few different effects depending on the user’s role and permissions. If you are an Admin or Owner of a file, you can easily remove any user from your project with just a few clicks.

If you remove someone from a File, they will no longer have access to that specific file. The removed user will still retain access to any other files they had previously accessed in that team or organization, however. Additionally, if that user had been invited as an Editor or Viewer of the file, all of their changes and comments associated with that particular file will be deleted.

If you remove someone from a Team or Organization, then they won’t have access to any of the files within that team or organization either. They will still retain access to any other teams and organizations they may belong too though.

If you are removing someone who is an Admin or Owner of a File, then their changes and comments will remain intact even after being removed from the File itself. However, if this user is removed from the Team or Organization then all of their changes and comments associated with all files within that team or organization will be deleted as well.

In conclusion, when you remove someone from Figma it depends on their role and permissions as to what effect it has on their access to files as well as their changes and comments associated with those files. If they were an Administrator or Owner of Files then their changes and comments are retained even after they are removed; however if they were only an Editor or Viewer than all their changes and comments associated with that particular file are lost when they are removed.

Conclusion: What happens when you remove someone from Figma depends on the user’s role and permissions within the File, Team or Organization in question. If an Admin or Owner is removed then only their access is revoked but all their changes/comments remain intact; however if an Editor/Viewer is removed then not only do they lose access but also all changes/comments associated with that particular File get deleted too.
