When working with Figma Weave, an API connection degraded status indicates that the underlying cloud server endpoints are experiencing packet loss, increased latency, or rate limiting. While basic UI tools remain responsive, AI layout prompts fail to stream back rendered components properly. At Figma Weave Support, we help designers troubleshoot connection degradation when cloud generation endpoints become sluggish or drop requests.

Quick checks

  • Verify whether Figma Weave is down across all cloud regions or if local network bottlenecks are causing API request drops.
  • Check if your web browser or desktop client is enforcing strict WebSocket or REST API throttling settings.
  • Ensure your VPN or corporate proxy isn't filtering encrypted outbound API traffic sent to AI generation servers.
  • Confirm whether Figma Weave is not generating frames at all or simply rendering outputs at reduced speeds.
  1. Bypass corporate proxy or active VPN tunnels

Enterprise security gateways frequently flag high-frequency AI API requests as suspicious streaming data. Temporarily disconnect your VPN or pause network filtering software to test whether API latency drops and response rates normalize within Figma Weave.

  1. Reset the desktop application network cache

Stale API tokens and cached transport protocols can trigger repeated connection degradation warnings. In the Figma desktop app, open the main menu, navigate to Help > Troubleshooting, and select Clear Cache and Restart.

  1. Switch to an isolated DNS provider

Local ISP domain resolution delays often trigger API connection degraded warnings. Update your network adapter settings to use public DNS servers such as Google Public DNS (8.8.8.8) or Cloudflare DNS (1.1.1.1) to ensure rapid API routing.

  1. Force a fresh WebSocket session

Close all open canvas tabs running Weave sessions. Log out of your Figma account, clear your browser cookies if using Figma in Google Chrome or Brave, and log back in to establish a clean socket session with the generation clusters.

Still stuck?

If your API connection remains degraded after completing these steps, check if Figma Weave is missing in Figma or consult community discussion forums to monitor widespread cloud infrastructure updates.
