The steps for enabling asset downloads for layers depends on whether you're using Craft Sync in Sketch or Photoshop.
Enable asset downloads in Sketch
To enable asset download for layers within a symbol, the layers must be marked for export in Sketch.
Currently, marking an entire artboard for export in Sketch will not generate assets in InVision Cloud (even if you re-sync the artboard).
To mark a layer within a symbol for export:
- Select the layer within the symbol.
- At the bottom of the Sketch inspector, click Make Exportable.
- Choose the export settings.
Repeat this step for each layer within the symbol you want to generate an asset for in Inspect.

Once all layers within the symbol have been made exportable, sync your artboard containing the symbol via Craft Sync. This will generate the layers as individual assets in Inspect mode. You can then download the assets within Inspect mode under the Assets tab. To learn more about Inspect, check out this article: Inspect for Craft Sync

in InVision. The layer names in your original Sketch file will remain unchanged.Enable asset downloads in Photoshop
If using Photoshop, the layers within the symbol can be marked for export by adding .png
or any other file format to the end of the layer name.

When the source file is synced via Craft Sync, InVision will generate the layers as assets in Inspect mode under the Assets tab.
