I've been trying to create some SVGs after using the 3D extrude & bevel option however I can't get the vector to save properly as an SVG.

Thank you.
I tried an export the same way as you did it.
I also imported that SVG into a third party app (Affinity Publisher in my case).
I didn't see any issues.

After expanding, I exported both successfully.
You may have to describe exactly how you're going about the export step by step to help identify where it's going wrong for you.

How I've been saving:
- Save as
- SVG 1.1
- Image location: Embed
I should note that the preview of the saved items show correctly however when I try to use the SVG in other programs such as Sketch, the issue then shows.
