Set up your Unity environment for Unity Studio draft import

Before you can import a Unity Studio draft, you need to set up your Unity environment correctly. You need to:
  1. Install a compatible Unity version.
  2. Create a new Unity project.
  3. Install the Unity Studio Importer package.

Install a compatible Unity version

The Unity Engine only supports imports from Unity Studio in Unity 6000.3.2f1 or later. You need to check that your Unity installation is compatible. To check:
  1. Open the Unity Hub.
  2. Select Installs. A list of your installed Unity Engine versions show.
  3. Check for an installation of Unity 6000.3.2f1 or later.
    • If one doesn't exist, select Install Editor and install a compatible version.

Create a new Unity project

Unity Studio drafts are only compatible with 3D Unity projects. To create a new Unity project that's compatible with Unity Studio drafts:
  1. From the Unity Hub, go to Projects and select New Project. A list of project templates show.
  2. Set Editor Version to a compatible version (Unity 6000.3.2f1 or later).
  3. Choose the Universal 3D template project.
  4. Complete the details and select Create Project.

Install the Unity Studio Importer package

After you set up your Unity environment, you can install the Unity Studio Importer package:
  1. In the Unity Editor, go to Window > Package Management > Package Manager.
  2. Select Add(+) > Install package by technical name.
  3. Enter 
    com.unity.studio
    in the Technical name field.
  4. Select Install.

Complete package prerequisites

The Unity Studio Importer package requires some additional setup before you can import a Unity Studio draft. When your package install finishes, go to Unity Studio > Draft Import to open the Unity Studio Draft Import window. A dialog is shown with a list of prerequisites: When you complete each step of the prerequisites, the checkbox next to that step is automatically selected.

Set up Universal Render Pipeline (URP)

You must assign a Universal Render Pipeline for Unity Studio drafts to work in your project. To assign a pipeline:
  1. In the prerequisites list, go to the Set up Universal Render Pipeline (URP) section.
  2. Select Switch to URP > Set Up.

Enable the Legacy Input system

Unity Studio drafts use the older Unity input system. You must configure your Unity project to use the Legacy Input system.
  1. In the prerequisites list, go to the Enable the Legacy Input system section.
  2. Select Enable both. The Restart Required dialog appears.
  3. Select Apply and Restart.
The Unity Editor restarts and enables the Legacy Input system.

Install TextMeshPro Essentials

Some assets in Unity Studio use the TextMeshPro system. You need to install the TextMeshPro Essentials package to support imported Unity Studio drafts:
  1. In the prerequisites list, go to the Install TextMeshPro Essentials section.
  2. Select Install now. A dialog shows that tells you that this action will import the TextMeshPro Essentials assets into your project.
  3. Select Import.

Sign in to Unity

You need to log into your Unity account to access and import your Unity Studio drafts:
  1. In the prerequisites list, go to the Sign in to Unity section.
  2. Select Sign in.

Continue to import

Once you complete all steps, select Continue to proceed to the import process. This opens the Unity Studio Draft Import window. Refer to Import Unity Studio drafts into the Unity Editor for detailed instructions on how to use the package.
