duplicate_node

Duplicate a node in the current Figma design.

Creates an identical copy of a node as a sibling of the original, preserving all styles, children, and layout properties. Returns the new node's ID so you can immediately modify or reposition the duplicate.

Parameters

NameTypeRequiredDescription
nodeIdstringRequiredThe Figma node ID to duplicate (from get_selected_node output)

Example prompt

Try asking: Duplicate the pricing card so I have three cards side by side.

Tips

  • The duplicate is created as a sibling — use move_node afterward to reposition it.
  • The returned new node ID lets you immediately apply different styles to the copy.
  • Duplicating a component instance creates another instance, not a standalone copy.
