i got this script that allow me to export range of artboards to SVG files , but I cant find how to export each artboard with its name or an array of names 

var docRef = app.activeDocument;

var path = docRef.path;

function exportFileToSVG (dest) {

  

    if ( app.documents.length > 0 ) {

        var exportOptions = new ExportOptionsWebOptimizedSVG();

        var type = ExportType.WOSVG;

        var fileSpec = new File(dest);

    

        exportOptions.saveMultipleArtboards = true;

        exportOptions.artboardRange = '1-2';

        exportOptions.coordinatePrecision = 2;

        exportOptions.fontType = SVGFontType.OUTLINEFONT;

        exportOptions.svgMinify = true;

        exportOptions.svgId = SVGIdType.SVGIDREGULAR;

        app.activeDocument.exportFile( fileSpec, type, exportOptions );

    }

}

exportFileToSVG('~/Desktop/blah.svg');

    var ABs = app.activeDocument.artboards;
for (var i = 0; i < ABs.length; i++) {
    ABs.setActiveArtboardIndex(i);
    exportFileToSVG("~/Desktop/" + ABs[i].name + ".svg");
}
function exportFileToSVG (dest) {
    if ( app.documents.length > 0 ) {
        var exportOptions = new ExportOptionsSVG();
        var type = ExportType.SVG;
        var fileSpec = new File(dest);   
        exportOptions.saveMultipleArtboards = true;
        exportOptions.artboardRange = '1-2';
        exportOptions.coordinatePrecision = 2;
        exportOptions.fontType = SVGFontType.OUTLINEFONT;
        exportOptions.svgMinify = true;
        app.activeDocument.exportFile( fileSpec, type, exportOptions );
    }
}

    What exactly is the problem? You iterate through the artboards, make each artboard active in turn and call the function with the active artboard's name added to the path. Or am I misunderstanding the question?
