### Remarks

Remember to call [EntityStorageInfoLookup.Update](/engine/7000.0/script-reference/unity/entities/entitystorageinfolookup/update.md).

Prefer using [SystemAPI.GetEntityStorageInfoLookup](/engine/7000.0/script-reference/unity/entities/systemapi/getentitystorageinfolookup.md) as it will cache in OnCreate for you and call .Update(ref state) at the call-site.
