Can someone tell me, why i can't export my fla file after an update. I used to work with both animate and after effect for my animation production. But almost 2 months this pipeline Animate to after effect doesn't work anymore even i did a thousand updates. Did I make a mistake in the export? or is the problem with adobe itself?

It's not a sequence, it's a series of layered SWFs. Each SWF corresponds to a layer in your Animate file. Import them all at once into After Effects.

This method is essentially the manual version of the import FLA option.

That's how I understand it now, thank you.
Oh, and 2 days after I posted my "FLA doens't load in After", an update in Animate madeit possible again…

It's been fixed in v.23.0.0.

Make sure both Animate and After Effects are updated.

I have both the latest versions and it errors out for me too. I am using a mac. I don't even see a way to export a fla from after effects. I have never done this. So I am interested in how this works.
