Will the icon and component subdirectory structure from a Figma export ZIP be preserved?

Yes. Deliteful preserves the complete internal directory hierarchy. Subdirectories like 'icons/24px/' or 'components/buttons/' are maintained exactly as exported, so build tool path references remain valid after extraction.

Can ZIP files from external agencies contain path traversal attacks?

Yes, this is a known attack vector. ZIP entries with paths like '../../config/settings.json' can overwrite files outside the intended extraction directory when opened locally. Deliteful validates and blocks all such paths before extraction.

What if the designer sent a partially corrupted ZIP?

Corrupted entries are detected and skipped automatically. Valid files in the same archive extract normally, so a single bad file does not block the rest of the handoff.

How large can design handoff ZIPs be?

Individual ZIP files can be up to 50 MB. For large handoffs split across multiple archives, batches support up to 50 files or 2 GB total.

Safely Extract Figma Exports and Icon ZIPs from Design Handoffs

Web asset optimization workflows start with a design handoff — typically a ZIP containing Figma exports, SVG icon sets, or sprite bundles organized into subdirectories by component or breakpoint. Deliteful extracts these handoff archives with the original structure intact and blocks path traversal attacks, so files from designer-provided ZIPs land cleanly in your asset pipeline without risk to your local environment.

Design handoff ZIPs from agencies or contractors often contain assets organized as 'icons/16px/', 'icons/24px/', 'hero/desktop/', 'hero/mobile/' — a directory structure your build tooling or CDN upload scripts reference directly. If extraction flattens that hierarchy, every path reference in your webpack config, Gulp task, or deployment script breaks. Deliteful preserves the full internal folder structure on every extraction.

Receiving ZIPs from external designers or agencies means occasionally encountering archives from sources you did not fully vet. Path traversal exploits embedded in ZIP file entries are a known attack vector — file paths referencing '../../' can overwrite files in parent directories on a local machine during extraction. Deliteful validates every path in the archive before writing a single file, keeping that risk off your development environment entirely.

How it works

1
Upload the design handoff ZIP
Upload the Figma export, icon set, or sprite bundle ZIP — up to 50 MB — to Deliteful.
2
Path validation and safety check
Deliteful validates every file path in the archive and blocks traversal patterns before extraction begins.
3
Download with asset directory structure intact
Receive extracted assets organized exactly as the designer packed them, ready for build pipeline ingestion.
