Export screen keeps getting stuck

Suddenly I can no longer Export my DropBox files to any format: Markdown, PDF, etc.

Every time I try to export, I keep getting stuck on the screen with the little wizard that says "Waiting to start..." but my file never actually exports.

I've had this issue for about a week now, and other coworkers on my team have as well.

    Hey matt_maccormack - thanks for bringing this to our attention.

    If this issue persists after clearing your browser's cache and/or on another browser/incognito window, may we reach out via email to investigate further?

    Thanks!

      Hello Walter,

      Thanks for reaching out. I've tried clearing my browser cache, on Incognito, and in a new browser, and my docs still won't export. I had another coworker try and the same thing occurred.

      Feel free to reach out via email!

    Hello, I'm having the same issue. The export is being stuck on the wizard. 
    Is this something you can help with? or should I reach out to support

      Hey vmatsuk - sorry to hear about this.

      This issue should be fixed now, so if you're still getting stuck at the same page, I'd recommend clearing your browser's cache and trying again. 

      Let us know how it goes!
