# After Effects
The LottieFiles plugin for Adobe After Effects lets you browse the LottieFiles library, import Lottie animations into your compositions, and export your After Effects work as Lottie — directly from inside After Effects.

## Features

- **Explore** the public LottieFiles library and import animations into a composition.
- **Workspace** access to your team's animations, images, source files, projects, and folders.
- **Export** any composition to Lottie via the render queue.
- **[Motion Tokens and themes](/en/integrations/after-effects/03_motion-tokens)** for previewing and customizing tokenized dotLottie files from Explore, then managing and saving changes from Workspace.
- **Motion System** for reusable colors, fonts, easings, motion presets, and assets.
- **Import** existing dotLottie files into your project.

## Help and account

The plugin's top-right corner exposes a small set of account-level actions:

- **Help dropdown** — links to documentation, support, and feedback channels.
- **Account avatar** (when signed in) — opens a menu with **My Dashboard**, **Settings**, **About**, and **Logout**.

Choose **Settings** to open **Plugin settings**. The **Auto-save** preference controls whether the plugin saves a changed AEP automatically before rendering. Workspace preferences are still managed on the LottieFiles website.

## Limits and plans

Some plugin features depend on your LottieFiles plan or workspace capabilities, including Motion System creation, version updates, file status, optimized Lottie export, and storage beyond the free 20 MB / 5-file cap. See [How plans affect the plugin](/en/integrations/after-effects/10_workspace/plans-and-limits) for the full matrix.
