Connect with an API token
-
In Figma:
- As an organization admin, open Figma in the file browser and select Admin in the sidebar.
- Select the Settings tab and go to Access › Authentication.
- Click SCIM Provisioning.
- Click Generate API token and copy the API token value.
Where to find the other values:
- Tenant ID: Admin › Settings › Access › Authentication › SAML SSO shows the Tenant ID.

The permissions Safeguard needs:
SCIM API token. Needs Figma's Organization or Enterprise plan. Safeguard's compliance tests for Figma need the credential on the API token tab: an OAuth connection cannot read everything they check. -
On Compliance › Connectors, open Figma, click Connect, choose API token and fill in:
Field What to enter Tenant ID Required. SCIM token Required. Stored encrypted and never shown again. Environment (optional) — -
Click Connect with token.
Connect with the MCP server
Choose MCP server: the address https://mcp.figma.com/mcp is filled in. Sign in to Figma when asked. It lets Griffin AI search Figma; the compliance evidence comes from the API token connection.
Frameworks
Safeguard's automated tests read Figma and map to the controls below. When a test passes, the result is evidence toward each control it maps to, in every framework listed. It is evidence toward a control, not proof that the control is met on its own.
| Framework | Evidence | Controls | Tests |
|---|---|---|---|
| SOC2 | Automated tests | CC6.2, CC6.3 | 3 |
| ISO/IEC 27001 | Automated tests | A.5.16, A.5.18, A.6.5, A.8.2 | 3 |
| HIPAA Security Rule | Automated tests | 164.308(a)(3), 164.308(a)(4) | 3 |
| PCI DSS | Automated tests | 7.2.2, 7.2.4, 8.2.5 | 3 |
| NIST CSF 2.0 | Automated tests | PR.AA-01, PR.AA-05 | 3 |
These tests are switched on per workspace by the Safeguard team.
