<aside> 💡 The new Changes tab replaces the old Export and Updates tabs. Whether you’re exporting content to Frontitude or updating your Figma files with the latest copy from Frontitude, the Changes tab is where you do it.

In this post you'll learn how to upload your copy and design from Figma to Frontitude and sync copy changes to keep Frontitude up to date with the latest copy.
To manage your copy using Frontitude, you'll have to upload it first by connecting the applicable frames on Figma to Frontitude.
When you first open the Frontitude plugin in a new Figma file, it will guide you to select the frames you'd like to connect. Once you connect a frame, all its copy is uploaded to Frontitude, and any changes made thereafter (either in Figma or Frontitude) will be tracked.
If you’ve already connected a frame, the Changes tab will display frames that are not connected. To connect them, click Sync changes.
<aside> 💡 The Changes tab is selection-sensitive. It displays only changes under the current selection in Figma. If the selection is empty, the Changes tab shows changes for the entire Figma file.

The Changes tab allows you to upload your frames' designs to Frontitude so you can edit your copy outside of Figma in the Frontitude web app.
To do so, check Include designs at the bottom of the plugin. When checked, the sync action will also upload the selected frames' designs to Frontitude.
Keep in mind that this may take longer than uploading just the copy (without the designs) since the files are bigger.
