      I'm wondering if you can export a usd file programmatically using python.
      I noticed that there isn't a usd format id listed under the SaveDocument documentation
      Is there another way?

        Hey @lionlion44,

        Thank you for reaching out to us. I doubt that this will not work in Python, it is just that we have not documented the symbols there yet. But you can find them in the C++ docs:

        6e23eada-2198-4c34-84bf-a576bbdd0ef9-image.png

        I.e., it will be c4d.FORMAT_USDIMPORT and c4d.FORMAT_USDEXPORT.

        Cheers,
        Ferdinand
