To get a Lottie animation, you can either [browse the selection of animations](https://lottiefiles.com/featured?ref=bannerify) on LottieFiles.com, or if you've created your own using the [After Effects plugin](https://lottiefiles.com/plugins/after-effects), you can upload your `.json` file to the LottieFiles website as a [private animation](https://lottiefiles.com/preview?ref=bannerify), and then copy the URL link to your animation in the same way to use it in Bannerify.

By default, your Lottie animation will automatically loop, but you can change this if needed by turning off the **Loop Embed** toggle.

To remove a Lottie animation from your layer, click on the the **Settings** icon button again and remove the URL from the Lottie embed input field.

> **Tip:** **Bulk applying Lottie file URLs** As with other layer settings, you can also apply your Lottie file URL setting to layers in bulk by using the [bulk apply](/bannerify/animation/animating-banners#applying-bulk-animations) feature.

> **Note:** **Complex visual effects/masks in video/GIF exports**. If you're exporting banners containing Lottie files to video or GIFs from Bannerify, certain Lottie files contain special effects, masks or styles that won't be supported as they are in the HTML exports.

> **Warning:** **Some ad platforms will block Lottie animations from being used**. If you're exporting banners containing Lottie files to HTML for ad platforms like Google Ads, some of these platforms won't allow you to upload your banners, as they don't allow third party Javascript libraries (like Lottie) to be used.
