> When I push a botton I want to see an animation 1 time ( no loops ) ( from [lottiefiles.com](http://lottiefiles.com) ) It works only the first time, I push the botton and I see the animation but when the animation is finished I push again the botton it doesn’t work, the animation doesn’t run. I want to see the animation each time I push the botton. How can I fix this problem?
