Where are scripts stored?
Scripter stores its scripts locally on your computer, in the browser's—or Figma desktop app's—local storage, specifically IndexedDB.
How do I download a copy of my scripts?
To download a zip archive of all your scripts, scroll to the bottom of the sidebar menu and select "Export all scripts".
Help! My scripts are gone
Scripter stores its scripts in the browser's local storage, so if you are using a different browser you may want to open the one you used before and download your scripts to transfer them. Another possibility is that you manually deleted your browser's local storage, for example by using Chrome's "Clear Browsing Data" function.
If you are using the Figma desktop app and you didn't do any of the above, it may be a bug in Figma. If so, please reach out to Figma customer support using the "(?)" icon in the bottom right of the screen inside Figma (or email support@figma.com)
Help! I can't access Scripter in Figma
If you are unable to access Figma to launch Scripter, you can visit
https://scripter.rsms.me/
where you can browse and download your scripts. Remember to visit this website using the web browser that you used in the past for Scripter. If that was the Figma desktop app and you are unable to sign into Figma, open the desktop app's developer tools (Help → Toggle developer tools). In the "Console" enter document.body.innerHTML="<iframe style='width:100vw;height:100vh' src='https://scripter.rsms.me/'></iframe>" and press RETURN to load that website in Figma.
