Switching from URL to Local Storage does not make tokens writable

[alecgeatches]

Describe the bug

After switching from a URL sync to local document storage, tokens are not changeable until refreshing the page.

I'm making a short tutorial for Figma Tokens. Ideally it would use a GitHub remote, but I want to exclude some of the trickier details (like getting a PAT) so I'm using a URL storage instead to get tokens into Figma. Ideally, users should be able to import via a URL and then switch to local document storage to be able to begin editing tokens right away.

To Reproduce

1. In Figma Tokens -> Settings, add a Token Storage URL. For the video below, I used this gist:

2. View tokens. Note that tokens are not editable as expected.

3. Switch to Settings, and set token storage to "Local Document".

4. Go back to tokens. See that the tokens are not editable.

5. Refresh the page.

6. Go to Figma Tokens -> Tokens. Note that the tokens are now editable.

Expected behavior

At step 4, after switching to local document storage, tokens should be editable.

Thank you!

I've experienced the same issue. As a workaround, logging out of Figma, and logging back in, makes the local document tokens editable.

Also reopening the plugin should do the trick, but agree that this is not desirable and something we should fix. Thanks for creating this!
