Connect Figma to Microsoft 365 Copilot

Give Microsoft 365 Copilot governed access to Figma’s 47 tools through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.

Set up

Add Figma to Microsoft 365 Copilot in four steps

Admins approve the server once. Everyone in Microsoft 365 Copilot then gets it through the same governed connection.

  1. 1

    Approve Figma in Runlayer

    Add Figma from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.

  2. 2

    Connect Microsoft 365 Copilot to Runlayer

    Users add the Runlayer Plugin to Microsoft 365 Copilot by following Runlayer’s setup guide. Microsoft 365 Copilot reaches Figma’s 47 tools through the Runlayer Plugin’s search and execute tools instead of listing each one.

  3. 3

    Sign in to Figma

    Each user signs in to Figma with OAuth. Runlayer keeps the tokens out of the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Figma from Microsoft 365 Copilot

    Figma’s approved tools appear in Microsoft 365 Copilot. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.

Control

What Runlayer can see and stop in Microsoft 365 Copilot

Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what Microsoft 365 Copilot exposes to Runlayer.

  • Gateway policy (available)

    Every Figma call from Microsoft 365 Copilot passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.

  • Audit trail (available)

    Each call is recorded with the user, Microsoft 365 Copilot as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.

  • Managed browser extension (available)

    Managed Chrome, Edge, and Firefox deployments can monitor supported web-chat activity and apply prompt-time controls where the surface permits it.

  • Native enforcement adapter (not available)

    Runlayer has no device-side adapter for Microsoft 365 Copilot yet, so control happens at the gateway.
