Paint By JSON | Figma API Client

Paint By JSON | Figma API Client

Real API data in your mockups made as easy as lorem ipsum.

Paint by JSON is an incredibly useful Figma plugin that allows you to bind your design layers directly to live REST endpoints. The process is straightforward: simply paste a URL, then map specific JSON paths to your corresponding layer names within Figma. Once configured, you can save this setup as a reusable Palette, which can then be applied to any frame in your design. This powerful capability lets you design with actual, real-world data instead of relying on generic lorem ipsum placeholder text, making your prototypes and mockups far more accurate and realistic.
