figma weave service status stuck on degraded

Seeing a degraded service status banner in Figma Weave can be frustrating, especially when cloud generation servers recover but your local workspace remains locked in a degraded state. This issue typically occurs when the client interface fails to receive recovery signals or gets stuck in a cached error state after a temporary outage. Figma Weave Support provides independent troubleshooting instructions to clear persistent status flags and revive your AI design environment.

Quick checks

• Verify whether Figma Weave is down globally or if the status warning is isolated to your current browser session.
• Test generating a simple single-layer UI component to see if Figma Weave is not generating designs or if background servers are actually online.
• Confirm that your account billing status is active, as unpaid invoices can simulate service degradation errors; see our guide on Figma Weave billing errors for account verification steps.
• Ensure your browser or firewall isn't blocking incoming status update webhooks.

1. Perform a hard refresh on the canvas window

A simple page reload often retains cached JavaScript state memory. Hold down Shift while clicking the reload button (or press Ctrl+F5 on Windows / Cmd+Shift+R on Mac) to force Figma to download fresh assets and refresh status indicators.

1. Toggle the Weave feature switch off and on

Open the quick actions menu in Figma (Cmd+/ or Ctrl+/), search for Weave preferences, and disable the AI extension. Wait ten seconds, then re-enable it to force the client to re-authenticate with the background cloud service.

1. Clear local browser storage and session cookies

Persisted local storage keys can store stale status flags indefinitely. Open your browser developer tools (F12), navigate to the Application tab, clear local storage for Figma, and restart the browser session.

1. Re-authenticate your workspace permissions

Log out of your Figma account entirely from all active devices and browser tabs. Re-login using your primary credentials to re-issue session security keys and purge lingering status hold warnings.

Still stuck?

When status degradation warnings persist across multiple networks and clean browser profiles, cloud node synchronizations are usually still processing behind the scenes. Allow 15 to 30 minutes for cloud telemetry to resync, or review our dedicated diagnostic guides to ensure your workspace setup is optimized.
