I've started building a new plugin for Adobe XD, but for some reason, I can't see it in the plugin menu, even after several reloads.



I'm pretty sure I structured the folder correctly and I'm building in the correct develop folder...

          Plugin location



          Make sure your plugin is in XD's develop folder. You can find that folder here:



          • macOS:

            • ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe XD CC/


          • Windows:

            • C:Users%USERNAME%AppDataLocalPackagesAdobe.CC.XD_adky2gkssdxteLocalState


          The XD plugin API docs have more information on plugin location.



          Manifest errors



          Errors in the plugin manifest are the most likely culprit.



          Here's an example of a manifest.json file:




          "id": "YOUR_ID_HERE",
          "name": "Name of Your Plugin",
          "version": "0.0.1",

          "description": "Description of your plugin.",
          "icons": [
          "width": 96, "height": 96, "path": "images/icon@2x.png"
          ],

          "host":
          "app": "XD",
          "minVersion": "13.0.0"
          ,

          "uiEntryPoints": [

          "type": "menu",
          "label": "Hello World",
          "commandId": "helloCommand",
          "shortcut": "mac": "Cmd+Shift+P", "win": "Ctrl+Shift+P"

          ]



          Note that the icons and uiEntryPoints values are arrays of objects, not an objects.
