AI is not able to apply Figma exported variables

The AI can successfully apply Figma exported variables at the global level, but it is unable to apply them at the component level. Instead, it prompts for explicit hex color values rather than using the exported variable references.

Expected Behavior:
AI should recognize and apply exported Figma variables at both global and component levels.

Actual Behavior:
Global variables are applied correctly, but component-level variables are not recognized, and the AI requests hex codes instead of using the variable tokens.

Hello Shilpa,

 

Indeed, that is currently a limitation within the AI feature. Moving this one to the public feedback portal and logging it as a feature request for the ThemeBuilder team to triage and discuss as a possible future improvement.
