Figma Weave server connection error fix

A server connection error in Figma Weave interrupts the real-time pipeline between your editor and the AI generation servers. When this connection drops, prompt requests cannot process, layout trees fail to render, and generation tools may freeze mid-task.

Quick checks

• Confirm that your web browser or Figma Desktop App is updated to the latest release.
• Test your network bandwidth to ensure stable socket communication.
• Switch from Wi-Fi to a wired Ethernet connection or mobile hotspot to rule out local router throttling.

1. Verify server infrastructure status: Server connection failures often coincide with background maintenance windows or unexpected API drops. Check our article on what to do when Figma Weave is down to isolate server-side incidents from local network problems.
2. Reset the editor connection session: Sometimes the underlying WebSocket connection drops while the main editor remains online. Close the file tab, return to your file browser, and reopen the document to establish a fresh connection session with the AI services.
3. Verify tool visibility and workspace entitlement: If server errors co-occur with missing UI elements or greyed-out options, your session token may have lost authorization. Refer to our guide on Figma Weave missing in Figma to restore missing tools.
4. Review subscription and credit status: Account-level restrictions or exhausted generation credits can occasionally trigger generic network error dialogs instead of specific billing alerts. Review our guide on Figma Weave billing error troubleshooting to confirm your plan status is active.

Still stuck?

If server connection errors persist across multiple networks and browser environments, collect console logs (via Developer Tools in Figma) and file an official bug report through Figma's support portal (`help.figma.com`).
