We are fairly far along in the design and currently crafting a research plan. One question I have is whether we can combine Design Intent & Midpoint Review since I believe we are close to the Midpoint Review stage.

GM, Mike. I am working on tomorrow’s Midpoint Review and can’t access the Figma files. It says I don’t have access. I sent a request ticket for access, but it hasn’t come through yet. Is there any way you can change the permissions on the Figma files so I can access them and complete my review?
