I’d like to be able to export my wireframes to Figma smoothly.

Figma does everything for us EXCEPT for wireframing. We have really enjoyed using Whimsical for that. If we could have a seamless export experience from Whim to Fig, we would save a lot of time.

I second this. I love Figma and now have fallen in love with Whimsical. But the current prototyping flow of exporting Whimsical pngs into Figma, framing them, and adding frame hotspots for clicks is lacking. Especially considering then they have to be recreated to iterate further into mid fidelity. With simple vector shapes and text why cant we copy/paste the screens right into Figma?

You can try our experimental .svg export which should help and make things a bit easier.
To get an SVG export for individual boards, try adding /svg at the end of board URL. It should look similar to this:

I tried exporting using “/svg” method on the complex board, and after importing to Figma, the result was way off from the original whimsical file.
I also would like to second on this request for the real export feature to Figma file. This feature would help tremendously in the design process from Whimsical to Figma apps.

Short of having a clickable prototype, Figma integration would be a close 2nd for time saving
SVG trick didn’t work for me at all. Nothing loaded.
Hi folks,
Thanks for the suggestion!
We’re starting to plan work around integrations; Figma is one we’re looking into.
We’d love to chat more about how you’d want this export to work. If you’re able to, grab some time on my calendar to talk through this further.
Cheers,
Todd @ Whimsical

The /svg works fine. Thank you!

It’s been two years since this was posted, anything in the works?
We’re currently reevaluating our prototyping needs and this is a feature others have that we’d love to see in Whimsical.
