Read time 1 minuteLast updated 21 hours ago
Install and manage Unity Editors and modules from a command line interface (CLI) in one of the following ways:
  • Unity CLI: The standalone 
    unity
    binary. Install, update, and run it without the Unity Hub desktop application. Use it for new scripts, automation, and CI pipelines.
  • Hub CLI: The CLI in the Unity Hub desktop application. Run it in headless mode with 
    -- --headless
    on Windows and macOS, or with 
    --headless
    on Linux.
Note
The Unity CLI is experimental. The CLI might not include every feature available in the Hub UI. The Hub CLI is deprecated with minimal support from version 3.18.0 of the Unity Hub.

Unity CLI updates from the Hub

The Unity Hub installs the Unity CLI and keeps it updated to the latest release by default.
Important
You can't disable automatic Unity CLI updates in the Hub. To use a specific version of the Unity CLI, refer to Install a specific Unity CLI version. For other ways to update the CLI, refer to Update the Unity CLI.
