FAQPage Schema

How do I search for Unity packages across both the registry and local installations?▼

To search Unity packages, query by package id, display name, or substring to retrieve available versions and local installation status across both the Unity registry and offline cache.

Can I check if a Unity package is already installed before attempting a new installation?▼

Yes, checking Unity package installation status returns whether the package is installed locally and provides the installed version alongside the latest available version from the registry.

How does the Unity package search ranking prioritize matching results?▼

Unity package search ranking prioritizes results sequentially by exact name match, exact display name match, name substring, display name substring, and description substring for accurate discovery.

Does offline Unity package search work for checking locally cached packages without registry access?▼

Yes, offline Unity package search supports local cache checks on your machine, returning installation status and installed versions for project planning without requiring an active registry connection.

What's the best way to compare Unity package versions before adding them to a project?▼

The best way to compare Unity package versions is running a unified search that returns the latest available registry versions and current local installation status to assess compatibility before installing.

Why does my Unity package search return results that only partially match the name I entered?▼

Unity package search returns partial matches because it supports substring queries across package names, display names, and descriptions, ranking exact matches higher than substring matches in the results.
