@sj7272 - I don’t know what “lottie files” are, but yes, you can import SVG files:

Thanks, @Max Harper.

@sj7272  - Looking at LottieFiles.com, it appears that those files can be downloaded as animated GIFs, which can also be imported into a Miro board. Note, however, they won’t automatically play - the user will have to click on an animated GIF, press play, and wait for the GIF to download/buffer - then it will play.

Here is an animated GIF in action:

And if you would like to see animated GIF autoplay in a Miro board, there is a Wish List Idea post to “Autoplay GIF” that you should upvote:

Hey @Robert Johnson @sj7272, I discovered this by surprise that Miro supports Oembeds. And LottieFiles public animations has support for oEmbeds. 

Here is a quick video demo of how it works:

Hope this is helpful.

Thanks guys - I found those too in the end.

It would be great if it was supported “natively” i.e. without the overlay, and if you could optionally set to autoplay. Good stuff!!

Would be great to either support Lottie files default. Without the black overlay… or add animated SVG support in Miro...
