UKismetTextLibrary::GetTextId

function Engine Blueprint Since unknown

#include "Kismet/KismetTextLibrary.h"

Access: public Specifiers: staticBlueprintPure

Description

Attempts to get the localization ID (namespace and key) used by the given text, returning whether an ID was found.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Displayed in Blueprint as 'Get ID from Text'.
• A found ID doesn't mean the text is translated — culture-invariant or programmatically constructed text can still carry a namespace/key pair without any localization data behind it.
• OutNamespace can legitimately be an empty string even when the function returns true; don't treat an empty namespace as a failure signal.
