Export Issues with Recent Sketch Versions - Plugin Compatibility

Hi Sketch team,

I’ve been experiencing export issues with recent Sketch versions that seem to affect plugin functionality. Specifically:

  1. Export actions are not triggering properly for plugins that rely on the export context

  2. Your own SVGO compressor plugin appears to have stopped working when exporting SVG files

  3. The API documentation at Sketch Developer — ExportSlices might need updating to reflect changes in recent versions

These issues are impacting plugin developers who depend on export hooks. Could you please look into this and update the documentation if there have been breaking changes to the export API?

Any guidance on maintaining compatibility with newer Sketch versions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Looks like the “ExportSlices” action was temporarily broken between 2025.1 and 2025.1.3 – should be fixed now.
