empty JSON export with after effects + bodymovin for Lottie


I have a basic animation in After Effects, installed bodymovin (without any errors), and would like to export as a Lottie Animation. But all I get when exporting is an empty JSON file.

I do select my composition during the export of course and I only have one composition.

I checked the tips and guidelines, and also the supported features, but I didn't find anything odd that I should not be doing.

Here's a screenshot of my animation: after effects basic anim

Any ideas?

Cheers


Solution

  • Got it, of course it's just me being stupid...

    I (re)installed After Effects before and forgot about the setting to allow scripts (used for the exporting) to write files.

    For future purposes: listen to the bunny. :Đ
