Details view

In the Package Manager window, the pane on the right displays details of the selected package.

These details include the following information:

(A) The display name. For Unity packages, a lock icon () and any state labels that apply to the package also might appear after the name.

Note: The lock icon appears when an installed feature setA feature set is a collection of related packages that you can use to achieve specific results in the Unity Editor. You can manage feature sets directly in Unity’s Package Manager. More info
See in Glossary requires the selected package. It prevents you from accidentally changing the version of the package so the feature set continues to work effectively.

(B) The package author or Asset Store package publisher.

(C) The package version, any source or asset labels, and the date the package was published to the registry or the Asset Store. If available, the information button might also appear after the version and date information. When you click the information button, Unity displays information about the package (for example, if the package version you requested does not match the version installed).

(D) The name of the package registry. For native Unity packages, this is always “Unity”. For scoped package registries, this matches the name property for this scoped registry in the project manifestEach Unity project has a project manifest, which acts as an entry point for the Package Manager. This file must be available in the <project>/Packages directory. The Package Manager uses it to configure many things, including a list of dependencies for that project, as well as any package repository to query for packages. More info
See in Glossary.

(E) For Unity packages, the links to open the package documentation page, the package change log (if available), and the license information. For Asset Store packages, the links to open the Asset Store package’s official page on the Asset Store, and if available, links to the publisher’s website and their support page.

(F) A brief description. By default, Unity displays only the first three lines, but you can click the More link to see the rest of it.

(G) Thumbnails of the marketing images, audio, and video available on the Asset Store for Asset Store packages. Click on the link underneath the thumbnails to open the Asset Store package’s official page on the Asset Store.

(H) Dependency information for Unity packages. By default, this section is hidden, but you can display it by enabling the Show Dependencies project setting.

This section lists dependencies in two directions:

• Is using: Whether this package depends on another package, and if so, which version. Installed packages display the status of the dependencies after the version number.
• Used by: Whether another package depends on this one, and if so, which version.

Packages without dependencies display the message “No dependencies”.

(I) For Asset Store packages, the following additional information is available here:

• The disk space required and the supported versions of Unity.
• The date you purchased the Asset Store package.
• The Asset Store package’s release information, including when it was originally released and when the current version was released.
• Any custom labels you assigned this Asset Store package.

(J) Unity packages that include sample assets display the samples along with an import button. To import the sample code, click the Import button next to the sample.

(K) Button(s) to unlock, install, update, remove, or disable the Unity package.

(L) Button(s) to download, import, or update the Asset Store package.

Labels

Some packages and Asset Store packages display labels next to the package name or version number. These labels provide information about the source or state of the package:

• Source label types indicate where the package originates from (for example, whether it comes from a local folder or is downloaded from the package registry).
• State label types indicate the package’s stage of the development cycle. For example, whether it is custom, an experimental package, or on the release track for a specific Unity version.
• Asset StoreA growing library of free and commercial assets created by Unity and members of the community. Offers a wide variety of assets, from textures, models and animations to whole project examples, tutorials and Editor extensions. More info
  See in Glossary labels indicate that the Asset Store package originated from the Asset Store and may also indicate some special status (for example, deprecated).

Some source labels imply state labels and vice versa (for example, if a package is embedded in your project, then Unity automatically assumes it is a custom package in development, so only the custom label appears in the details view).
