Research direction

Start with the Compose Code Connect documentation linked in the issue and trace how the Composable function name is used in suggested imports and as the Figma component name. The issue asks for the suggested import to resolve correctly and for the component name's role to be explained; confirm the relevant documentation and suggestion behavior before deciding what change is needed.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

API question

I realised that the name of the function annotated with @Composable is used in two places :

  • in the import inside suggest code (see screenshot)
  • as the component name (I'm not sure what the component name is used for anyway in Compose)
Image

The import in the suggested code should be fixed, and point to the real import
The role of the component name in Figma should be better explained in https://developers.figma.com/docs/code-connect/compose/

Please provide:

  • Code Connect CLI version 1.3.13
  • Operating system MacOS 26.2
  • Code Connect file
