Automated Figma Comment Chasing

Every morning, WebRun opens the Figma files you nominate, collects every unresolved comment with its author, the frame it sits on, and how long it has been open, appends the list to a Google Sheets tracker, and emails your own design inbox a chase list with the oldest and the blocking comments at the top.

In short

How do I keep unresolved Figma comments from being forgotten?

WebRun chases unresolved Figma comments every morning. It opens the files you nominate, collects each open comment with its frame, owner and age, appends the snapshot to a Google Sheets tracker, and emails your design team a chase list in Gmail with the oldest and most blocking comments first.

  • Every open comment has an age and an owner by 9am
  • Blocking feedback surfaces before it delays a handoff
  • The tracker shows whether the comment backlog is shrinking

Step by step

What does WebRun do on every run?

The exact actions WebRun takes, in order - in plain language, so you can adjust anything.

  1. WebRun signs in and gets to work

    Opens www.figma.com/login in a real browser with your saved login - no setup, no API keys.

  2. 1
    Figma - collect unresolved comments
    figma.com
    WebRun in Figma: collect unresolved comments
    WebRun opens Figma to collect unresolved comments.
    • Open each Figma file on your watched project list
    • Collect every comment that is still unresolved, with its author, the frame or page it sits on, and the date it was left
    • Note who was mentioned in the thread so the comment has an owner

    Done when Every unresolved comment across the watched files is captured with its age and owner.

  3. 2
    Google Sheets - log each comment with its age
    google.com
    WebRun in Google Sheets: log each comment with its age
    WebRun opens Google Sheets to log each comment with its age.
    • Open your design tracker in Google Sheets and append today's snapshot
    • Record the file, frame, comment author, mentioned owner, date opened, and days outstanding
    • Mark rows for comments that have since been resolved so the sheet shows real progress

    Done when Today's comment snapshot is in the Google Sheets tracker.

  4. 3
    Gmail - email the design chase list
    gmail.com
    WebRun in Gmail: email the design chase list

    • Email the chase list to your own design team inbox, never to a client
    • Put the oldest comments and anything mentioning a blocker at the top, grouped by file
    • Include the Figma deep link for each comment so a reply is one click away

    Done when The design team inbox has today's chase list with links.

Good to know

Questions, answered

Does it reply to or resolve comments in Figma?

No. WebRun reads comments and reports them. Replying, resolving, and editing the file stay with your designers, so nothing in a live Figma file is touched by a run.

Will clients or stakeholders receive the email?

No. The chase list goes only to the internal address you nominate. WebRun never emails a client or a reviewer, so an unanswered comment never turns into an unexpected outside message.

Which files does it watch?

Only the files or projects you list. Point WebRun at the active client projects and it skips archived and exploratory files, so the chase list stays short enough to act on.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes - or have our team set it up for you.
