Figma outage history

A service disruption began at 1:07 AM UTC with degraded or unavailable Figma services tied to failures with AWS and other dependencies. Users faced sign-in issues, limited file access, and degraded collaboration across core apps, including Sign-in & Account Access, REST API, Real-time collaboration server, File Browser & Search, Email & Notifications, and design suites like Figma Design and FigJam, with plugins and widgets also affected. By 1:22 AM UTC, the affected components came back online and service was returning to normal as the root issues were resolved.

An outage began at Aug 26, 2026 12:12 PM UTC affecting Figma's MCP subsystem, which prevented Codex and ChatGPT users from seeing MCP tools such as use_figma. The issue represented a partial outage for access to these features, with the MCP component flagged as degraded. Over the next few hours, Figma provided updates about recovery efforts; by 2:17 PM UTC recovery was starting and monitoring continued, and by 3:17 PM UTC progress remained in progress. The MCP tool visibility was restored later, and the MCP component returned to up status by 4:22 PM UTC. The disruption lasted a little over four hours.
