Heii

I wanna make a svg animation with the tool "lottie". I created a waving flag with the effect "wave wrap". Unfortunately "lootie" doesn't support this effect. Is there a possibility to convert the effect to a path? Or do you have another idea?

Personally, I think you are using the wrong tool. Adobe Animate supports a lot more web formats.

The only option I know of using After Effects is to animate a vector path using keyframes or an expression driving nulls on a path because as soon as you turn vectors into pixels you lose the SVG advantage. All of the distort plugins I know of turn vectors into pixels.

Here's a list of the supported Lottie features:

To get a wave warp like effect, you could manually set keyframes on the path to create movement. Alternatively, you might need to look at creating a GIF instead.
