CI HUB Connector: Use your THRON assets in Figma

Prerequisites:

CI HUB Credentials: You need them to activate the connection with THRON. If you don't have them, request them from your Customer Success, your THRON Account or your internal Administrator.
THRON Credentials: These are the username and password you usually use to access THRON via browser.

The plugin will be available under Main Menu → Plugins → CI HUB Connector in any Figma or FigJam file.
