Zeplin

Zeplin is a design-to-development handoff platform that bridges the gap between designers and developers by providing a structured workspace for accessing design specs, assets, style guides, components, and annotations. The Zeplin REST API enables programmatic access to all resources within Zeplin including projects, screens, components, layers, assets, and notes exported from Figma, Sketch, and Adobe XD. Developers can build custom integrations using read and write operations on design data, receive real-time updates via webhooks, and automate design-to-code workflows. The API uses OAuth 2.0 with PKCE support and personal access tokens for authentication, with an official JavaScript SDK and OpenAPI specification available.

Zeplin publishes 16 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Authorization API, Colors API, Components API, and 13 more. Tagged areas include Design, Design Handoff, Developer Tools, Figma, and Sketch.

The Zeplin catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Zeplin’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, pricing, and 11 more developer resources.
