### Remarks

This API does not generate a build, instead it is a convenient function to populate the build definition into the format expected by some signatures of [BuildPipeline.BuildAssetBundles](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityeditor/buildpipeline/buildassetbundles.md), or the Scriptable Build Pipeline.
