UBlueprintPathsLibrary::ProfilingDir

function Engine Blueprint Since 4.0

#include "Kismet/BlueprintPathsLibrary.h"

Access: public Specifiers: staticBlueprintPure

Description

Returns the directory the engine uses to output profiling files, such as captured stat traces. Equivalent to FPaths::ProfilingDir() exposed for Blueprint/Python.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Lives under the Saved tree alongside logs and crash dumps, so its contents are excluded from version control and packaged builds.
• Profiling tools (Unreal Insights traces, stat captures) write here by default, but the exact subfolder layout can change between engine versions — don't hardcode paths beneath this one.

Signature

Return Type

FString

Example

Locate the profiling output directory C++

FString Profiling = UBlueprintPathsLibrary::ProfilingDir();
