Hi @ztianyang

Can you share your project with us? Using the 'Export' command from the file menu should generate a file.

Also, if you're familiar with the Chrome developer tools, can you open the 'Network' tab, and see if there's a request to cloud.snap.berkeley.edu with an Error and show any info?

Thanks!

I drag and dropped the file into the Snap! editor, and it worked.

I believe I encountered this error when I created a new project from the WIP community site (https://cloud.snap.berkeley.edu/site/index.html, https://cloud.snap.berkeley.edu/snap/snap.html).

Ah ha! I have got it.Thanks! :slight_smile:

I'll have a fix for this soon, but in the meantime, if you're using the cloud site and open Snap!, you'll want to change the URL from cloud.snap.berkeley to just snap.berkeley.

Michael's fix has now been pushed to the server and this shouldn't be an issue anymore.

Thanks a lot, @theaspiringhacker and @ztianyang for reporting this one! :+1:
