| CreateAsset | Creates a new native Unity asset. |
| CreateFolder | Creates a new folder, in the specified parent folder.The parent folder string must start with the "Assets" folder, and all folders within the parent folder string must already exist. For example, when specifying "Assets/ParentFolder1/Parentfolder2/", the new folder will be created in "ParentFolder2" only if ParentFolder1 and ParentFolder2 already exist. |

| GetDependencies | Returns an array of all the assets that are dependencies of the asset at the specified pathName.Note: GetDependencies() gets the Assets that are referenced by other Assets. For example, a Scene could contain many GameObjects with a Material attached to them. In this case, GetDependencies() will return the path to the Material Assets, but not the GameObjects as those are not Assets on your disk. |
