Unity Asset Manager — April 18, 2024

Our search feature is now greatly enhanced with the release of extended metadata filters. You can filter by any primary metadata, custom metadata, and some extracted metadata types.

You can now get results for assets whose names or tags only partially match what you have typed into the search bar. For instance, a query for ‘blue’ will now get asset results that contain ‘blue_car’ in their name or tag back. This makes it much easier to find assets with tricky naming conventions. Search results will dynamically update 0.5 seconds after you have stopped typing.

This update will allow you to arrange your previews for display on the asset in any order you want, including putting audio files or 3D files first. It also means that you can choose any primary preview image for display in the gallery, irrespective of the order displayed in the asset.

We've updated the asset details and edit views for better consistency between the fullscreen and sidepanel experiences. Now, you can edit files directly from the datasets tab in the sidepanel view, just as you can in the fullscreen view.

To access the fullscreen asset edit view, use the fullscreen icon at the top of the asset sidepanel header, instead of the previous Manage Files button. This change applies to both the asset details and asset edit views, which will now open in a fullscreen modal.

The Service Accounts for the organizational roles Asset Manager Admin and Asset Manager Search have the data they can fetch for projects that are extended. This will mean all projects will be returned for service accounts that have those roles assigned. Since that role is at organization level but grants project level permissions, it means all projects in the org will become accessible to those service accounts.

Currently, those roles only return projects to which the service account has project role levels assigned.

We’ve added more actions in the contextual menu of a dataset.

You can now download all files from your 3D Data Streaming dataset.

Workflow progressions are better tracked for single file asset creation.
