UKismetStringTableLibrary::GetTableEntryMetaData
#include "Kismet/KismetStringTableLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticBlueprintPure
Description
Returns a named piece of meta-data attached to a string table entry, such as authoring notes added during localization import.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Meta-data IDs are arbitrary and project-specific — use GetMetaDataIdsFromStringTableEntry first to discover what's actually available on an entry rather than guessing MetaDataId values.
- • Returns an empty string if the table, key, or meta-data ID doesn't exist, with no way to distinguish those cases from the return value alone.
