UKismetSystemLibrary::GetObjectFromPrimaryAssetId

function Engine Blueprint Since unknown

#include "Kismet/KismetSystemLibrary.h"

Access: public Specifiers: staticBlueprintPure

Description

Returns the object associated with a Primary Asset Id, but only if it is already loaded in memory — this does not load the asset.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Returns null if the asset isn't currently loaded; use the Asset Manager's LoadPrimaryAsset (or an async load) first if you need to guarantee it's available.
• Requires the Asset Manager to know about this Primary Asset Id (i.e. it must be registered via the Primary Asset rules in project settings) — unregistered IDs also return null.
• This is a pure/BlueprintPure query with no loading side effects, so it's safe to call every frame without triggering I/O.
