FAQPage Schema
How do I open a prefab in edit mode for a specific GameObject in Unity?

You open prefab edit mode by calling the assets-prefab-open HTTP API endpoint with a valid gameObjectRef. This initiates the edit operation for the targeted GameObject so modifications propagate to all instances.

Can I batch-update prefabs across multiple scenes using gameObjectRef?

Yes, you can batch-update prefabs across scenes using gameObjectRef. By opening prefab edit mode through the HTTP API, edits made to the source automatically propagate to all instances across scenes.

What's the best way to ensure prefab consistency across a Unity project?

The best way to ensure prefab consistency is to open prefab edit mode for a specific GameObject. This modifies the original prefab asset and automatically applies changes to all instances across the project, reducing manual updates.

Why do I need a valid gameObjectRef to modify prefab instances?

A valid gameObjectRef is required to identify the specific GameObject whose prefab you want to edit. Without it, the HTTP API cannot target the correct prefab source to open edit mode and propagate changes to instances.

Does modifying a prefab in edit mode automatically update all instances?

Yes, modifying a prefab in edit mode automatically updates all instances. When you open prefab edit mode and change the target GameObject, the edits propagate across all scenes and projects to ensure consistency.

Do I need any dependencies to use the prefab open API?

No dependencies are required to use the prefab open API. You only need a valid gameObjectRef to successfully call the HTTP API endpoint and start the edit operation on the targeted GameObject.
