Problem Exporting

I'm having some trouble exporting my artboards. I'm using XD and it's all updated and recent.

When I export my artboards as SVGs everything looks right but then when I bring them to photoshop the images on the file aren't there.

I don't know if it's just some glitch, or something common.

Any help will do.

    SVG files are vector-based, and Photoshop is primarily pixel-based. Photoshop isn't as good with handling SVG files, so I would recommend exporting PNG files from XD if you want to bring them into Photoshop.

    If the SVGs look good in a browser, it's likely that Photoshop is mangling it on input. Or are you importing to Photoshop using copy and paste?
