When using export for screens some SVGs aren't saving with no error

I am using export in screens to save multiple file types from a ton of different variations of a logo, both colou and style. One of my file types I'm exporting is a SVG and for some reason 3 different artboards didn't save the svg file, I didn't get an error they just don't exist among the files I exported.

I tried to export in screens with just those three converting just to svg and it loads like it is exporting and doesn't pop up an error but none of them are in the file I selected. I tried selecting just my downloads folder to export to but same thing happened.

I don't know what would be different about the three two of them are the same logo different colours the other is a different logo variation but they all have multiple other versions in this file in different colours that exported fine.

I ended up contacting support and remote sharing my file, the best answer I could get was that those three specific artboards among my 56 artboards were corrupt. I duplicated the 3 and deleted the "corrupt" ones and they exported successfully as svgs.

Hello @Robyn34960037d7m8,

I am sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind sharing more details, like the OS/Illustrator version, a sample AI file, and a screen recording of your exact workflow, including the problem, so I can better assist you?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Without seeing anything, this will be impossible to solve.

What's in your artwork and exactly how is everything set up?

This is happening to me too. I do a mass export of hundreds of icons (JPG, PNG, PDF and SVG) and JPG, PNG and PDF export all the artboards but SVG inexplicably exports 10 less artboards 😑

UPDATE: The reason the 10 artboards weren't exporting is was because they had all an extra space after their artboard name! Hope this helps someone 🙂
