name: gameobject-component-get
description: 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

## How to Call

```bash
unity-mcp-cli run-tool gameobject-component-get --input '{
  "gameObjectRef": "string_value",
  "componentRef": "string_value",
  "includeFields": false,
  "includeProperties": false,
  "deepSerialization": false
}'
```

> For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:
> ```bash
> unity-mcp-cli run-tool gameobject-component-get --input-file args.json
> ```
>
> Or pipe via stdin (recommended):
> ```bash
> unity-mcp-cli run-tool gameobject-component-get --input-file - <<'EOF'
> {"param": "value"}
> EOF
> ```

### Troubleshooting

If `unity-mcp-cli` is not found, either install it globally (`npm install -g unity-mcp-cli`) or use `npx unity-mcp-cli` instead.
Read the /unity-initial-setup skill for detailed installation instructions.

## 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. |
