Find and replace variables just like text.
Replace every matching Variable across your selection at once, instead of updating layers and nested properties one by one.
Replace variables in your selection in one go — just like the familiar Find & Replace experience.
Automatically finds every field in your selection where a Variable can be linked and replaces it.
Choose exactly which Variable types (Color, Number, String and Boolean) you want to replace.
If multiple Variables share the same name, you can review them and choose the exact Variable to replace with.
Replace variables referenced by pasted layers without copying and pasting existing variable connections.
As Property combinations grow, updating Variables across every variation becomes increasingly time-consuming.
Rebind can update Variables applied to fills, strokes, sizes, and even effects in a single operation.
Variables attached to pasted layers are often difficult to reassign through the Figma UI.
Rebind lets you apply matching Variables without manually locating them.
Replace Variables used in different styled text ranges without manually selecting and modifying each one.
Change property values across all nested instances at once.
Unlike Mode switching, updates follow the layer hierarchy and preserve overrides.
Figma’s UI allows Number variables to be linked to some String fields (Component property and Text characters), but the Figma Plugin API blocks this behavior.
Variables linked to Styles or Gradients are not yet supported and may not behave as expected.
When selected objects contain external variables added through copy-and-paste:
- If the original file is published as a library and the replacement variable is in the original variable’s collection, the plugin can detect and replace it.
- If it is not published, the plugin cannot find a valid replacement variable from Figma.
If a variable linked to a component property is replaced, Undo may not behave correctly for that instance. After undoing, the variable must be manually unlinked and reassigned for that property.
Figma displays Variable hierarchy using “groups,” but technically the full group path — including the “/” separators — is treated as the Variable’s actual name.
Therefore, when replacing a Variable with one from another collection, the entire group path must match exactly.
When replacing variables linked to certain fields — especially Component properties and text characters — unexpected overrides or resets may occur, reverting to the original variant or values.
When replacing a variable linked to a component property, the variable will not be replaced if the replacement variable’s value is not valid for that property defined in the component.
When replacing a variable linked to a font family or font style, the variable may be replaced even if the value is invalid in Figma.
Please make sure to enter a valid font family or font style string when creating the variable.
The plugin prioritizes the original variable’s collection. If that collection contains a variable with the replacement name, it will be used over any matching variables in other collections.
Figma distinguishes between uppercase and lowercase letters in variable names. When entering text to Find or Replace, make sure to match the exact capitalization.
Each file includes 10 free replacement operations.
To continue using the plugin, you can purchase it for a one-time payment of $5.
For the price of a cup of coffee, save time and avoid repetitive work.
