gameobject-component-get	Get detailed information about a specific Component on a GameObject. Returns component type, enabled state, and optionally serialized fields and properties. Use this to inspect component data before modifying it. Use 'gameobject-find' tool to get the list of all components on the GameObject.

GameObject / Component / Get

Get detailed information about a specific Component on a GameObject. Returns component type, enabled state, and optionally serialized fields and properties. Use this to inspect component data before modifying it. Use 'gameobject-find' tool to get the list of all components on the GameObject.

How to Call

HTTP API (Direct Tool Execution)

Execute this tool directly via the MCP Plugin HTTP API:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/tools/gameobject-component-get \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "gameObjectRef": "string_value",
  "componentRef": "string_value",
  "includeFields": false,
  "includeProperties": false,
  "deepSerialization": false
}'

With Authorization (if required)

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/tools/gameobject-component-get \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -d '{

Input

Name	Type	Required	Description
gameObjectRef	any	Yes	Find GameObject in opened Prefab or in the active Scene.
componentRef	any	Yes	Component reference. Used to find a Component at GameObject.
includeFields	boolean	No	Include serialized fields of the component.
includeProperties	boolean	No	Include serialized properties of the component.
deepSerialization	boolean	No	Performs deep serialization including all nested objects. Otherwise, only serializes top-level members.
