Exporting tokens references to figma layers

[jiricerhan]

Hi, is there a way to export token references to Figma layers? I am trying to use your plugin's data to generate some code and this feature would be useful.

Something like:

[
{
  "id": "...",
  "type": "COMPONENT",
   ...
  "tokens": {
     "cornerRadius" : "global.small-radius",
      ...
  }
} ,
]                     

Is it possible?
Thanks a lot.

The plugin currently stores all applied data on the sharedPluginData space tokens. If you were using the API you could extract these. There's quite a few properties you'd need to iterate on, but you can use getSharedPluginDataKeys("tokens") to find out which keys are set on this layer, and then find the value using getSharedPluginData("tokens", key)

Can you tell me a bit more about your use case? Would you like to find these via Figma's REST API?

Thanks for the quick answer. That is exactly what I was looking for.

I'm not that much familiar with Figma's API yet. I found information that plugin's data are private and overlooked this shared sharedPluginData thing. I thought it wasn't possible to get this from the API. Sorry to bother you.

Thanks a lot again, for your help and this amazing plugin.
