I am using the PublicAPI with python. The examples nicely show how to instantiate a HDA Houdini Asset to the level and then use the returned wrapper further.

Is it possible to create a wrapper for a HoudiniAssetActor that already exists in the level, instead of having to instantiate a new one every time?

Hi,

Did you try using UHoudiniPublicAPIAssetWrapper::CreateWrapper(), this should create a wrapper using an existing AHoudiniAssetActor or UHoudiniAssetComponent.

For anyone else struggling like me to translate this to python. Here is a solution:

api = unreal.HoudiniPublicAPIAssetWrapper
_g_wrapper = api.create_wrapper(None,MyHoudiniAssetActor)
