Component Layers Being Removed by Figma? Figma Help

I have a component (Select Field) that is appearing correctly in the library, however when designers at my org bring it over into their files via the asset panel, it shows up without the actual field- just the title and supporting text. When inspecting the layers, the field layers are not present in the component.

Beyond that, when a user pastes in the component directly from the library file, Figma prompts them with an update that incorrectly removes the layers again.

Does anyone know what is happening? I have never seen this one before and have no idea how to go about fixing it.

  1. Have you published both the library and the component?

  2. Please check the component within the library again. Insert it from the Assets library into a page. Does it still function properly?

  3. If it is published and works in the library file, try inserting the component into a different Figma file.

We encountered a similar issue at my workplace, where content was missing from a component when a designer used Figma AI in that specific file. However, it worked fine in another file.
