Supported AgentsThe extension generally supports Microsoft hosted agents as well as custom agents. Some features may not be available when using hosted agents for older Unity versions and platforms that require setting up e.g. specific SDKs on the machine for builds to work. In such cases, we recommend using a custom agent with full control over tools and software installed.

Supported Platforms for Hosted Agents- Standalone Windows
- Standalone macOS
- Standalone Linux
- Universal Windows Platform
caution
Please note that a Unity Plus / Pro seat with at least one available activation is required to build using hosted agents. This is a requirement by Unity not this extension. The agent will activate the seat on build and release it again once done.
