Keep running into API rate limits

  • Briefly describe the bug I have designed some GUIs in Figma and planned on using tkdesigner to convert the Figma design into usable tkinter code. Yesterday I tried to export the entire project with 3 frames - but after the images in the first frame were generated, I got a rate limit error and no gui.py file. However, today, even the most simple frame again gives me a rate error. I even generated a new access token but to no avail. And yesterday, I atleast got the images of one of my frames in the assets folder - but today no assets are generated either. I suspect this is due to tkdesigner using a tier 1 endpoint, 'GET /v1/images/:key' which on the starter plan only allows 6 calls PER MONTH.

  • Operating System Windows 11

  • What is the expected behavior? I should get a .py file in the build directory

  • Please provide step by step instructions on how to reproduce the bug

  1. Go to figma.com
  2. Make a new design as shown below:

  1. Download tkdesigner from source (PyPi version is outdated??)
  2. Run tkdesigner in a venv using python -m tkdesigner.cli "url" "token"
