get_motion
Read a layer's Figma Motion animation.
Returns the animation styles applied to a layer, its manual keyframe tracks, the timeline of its frame and the playhead position. Screenshots only show the resting state, so use this to check what moves. Figma Motion is in beta: if it is not enabled for your account, the tool says so.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| nodeId | string | Required | A layer inside a frame (not the top-level frame itself) |
Example prompt
Try asking: What animation is on the balance card?
Tips
- Rotation is reported in Figma degrees, counter-clockwise positive.
- Times are in seconds, like everywhere in Figma Motion.
