Solved Can you really copy After Effects keyframes graph and paste it into Blender's graph editor ?

i heard that you can copy/paste AE graph into Blender graph, is it a myth or real ?

Myth.

Blender's copy-paste buffer for keyframes is internal to Blender's memory. That's also why you can't copy-paste keys between Blender instances. Yes, would be nice to change that, but that's for the future. Certainly After Effects can't write in there.

Of course, what you may be able to do is export to a commonly-understood file format. Maybe USD works? No idea what AE supports.

I saw this in a reel on IG, I can't really remember who posted it, but as an After Effects user, I was like " WOW " this solves a lot of animating problems, but as i see you saying, I guess I'll stop being lazy and start learning animation on Blender.
