Here's how to quickly create a token, and how to delete tokens you no longer need.


Create a new token in Supernova

Tokens: New token button
  1. Click + New token to open the drawer.
  2. Select a group for the token if you want. You can also create a new group.

  4. Enter or select a value for the token.

Import a token to Supernova

Of course, you can also import styles to Supernova, and we'll convert them into design tokens for you. You can import from a Figma file, via our Figma Variables Sync plugin (if you're using variables) or via our Tokens Studio integration.

To learn more about importing, read the section Import design system data.

  2. Click the trash icon at the bottom right corner of the drawer.
  3. A confirmation dialog will open. Click Delete token to permanently delete the token.
  4. You can also click ••• beside the token name and complete this action from the context menu.
