I’m attempting to export a VSDX or VSX file but I keep receiving the error “An error occured. Failed to download.”

Is anyone else having this issue and unable to export?

@Kelsey Gaag Thank you for identifying the shape to delete from the project to be able to export the remaining shapes.


@Denys Poltorak, No problem!


Hello @Morgan T, I am having similar issues with my attempt to export to VSDX format (I also tried pasting into blank canvas). Can you please look into this for me? My Support PIN is dupA71W4q9T2ug122947444

Hi ​@tj101

Thank you for the reply! Before we take a look at your document could you try the following steps? 

  • Try the export in a Chrome Incognito browsing session. This often improves performance by clearing your cache and cookies and disabling your extensions.
  • Sometimes issues like this can be related to internet connection speed or network security. Please try the export again on another network and disable any VPN’s, ensuring that you are on a strong, stable connection.
  • If your export is timing out or your content is the wrong size in the downloaded version, adjusting the content scale can help. To adjust the content scale, infinite canvas must be toggled off.

If the issue persists, please send the following information:

  • A screenshot of the associated Javascript Console output. You can open your Javascript Console by pressing Ctrl + Shift + J (if your computer is a Windows / Linux) OR Cmd + Opt + J (if your computer is a Mac).
  • A screenshot of the error message you receieve

Hi Kelsey,

No luck. I have tried in Chrome incognito. My connection is the same land-based internet connection that I use for work which is capable handling video-conf. streams - Hence quite stable.

Also, I don’t have infinite Canvas enabled.

Export works fine for other formats (Albeit I do get the occasional page unresponsive due to the size/complexity of the diagram), but no luck with VSDX format.

If it helps, the diagram does complain every time I open it:


Aside, I have tried using Edge and it too errors-out:
 

 


Hi ​@tj101

Thank you for trying those steps! Can you provide a screenshot of the associated Javascript Console output after the export fails?  You can open your Javascript Console by pressing Ctrl + Shift + J (if your computer is a Windows / Linux) OR Cmd + Opt + J (if your computer is a Mac).

Could you also try removing / replacing the custom fonts to see if that helps the export?
