Embed a lottiefiles element in a component

In Figma Site, I’m working on a carousel that previews various animations and I want them to be linked through LottieFiles, as the page is getting super heavy due to numerous assets. 

I create the carousel frames with the lottiefiles embed in it and as soon as I make these frames a component, the LottieFiles element is thrown out of the component. Is there a way for the LottieFiles to be embedded in components?
