Importing your content
Learn how to export your Rive files.
Exporting for real-time content
You can load your Rive files into apps, websites, products, and games thanks to the open-source Rive Runtimes. To load your files in our runtimes, you'll need to export a .riv file.
Note that .riv files are optimized for runtime so any non-runtime-related data (like x/y coordinates of states) are stripped out.
Via the Editor
Export your file via the export menu within the toolbar. Select Download from the dropdown menu.
For newest runtime
This option downloads a .riv file that is compatible with the latest major version of the Rive runtimes (number displayed on the right). You can use the Get runtimes button to find all our latest runtimes.
Previous
This option downloads a .riv file that is compatible with the previous major version of the Rive runtimes (number displayed on the right). Use this if you haven't updated to the latest major version.
For backup
This option downloads a .rev file that is intended for backup. It contains all the data that gets stripped out from runtime files. If you drag this file back into the Editor, it'll restore all properties (including coordinates of state machine states).
