Hello,

I hope everything is ok for you. I am working on an Unreal Engine 5.3 project that utilizes the Remote Control API plugin. I use it to manipulate my level with a Remote Preset and Blueprint. Everything works fine when I test it in the editor. However, it does not work when I package my project for Linux and then try to control it.

Here is the error I receive in Postman when I try to call my Remote Preset:  
errorMessage: “Unable to resolve the preset”

Here is my Postman request:  
PUT : [https://myaddress/remote/preset/MyRemotePreset/function/MyFunction](https://myaddress/remote/preset/MyRemotePreset/function/MyFunction)  
{  
“Parameters”:{  
“Value” : 1  
},  
“GenerateTransaction” : true  
}

Any help or insights into resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.  
Thank you for your help 🙂

Put your remote control preset into your level.

It’s not obvious, but the function name in the query itself should be separated by a space.  
In your example: “My Function”

> [https://myaddress/remote/preset/MyRemotePreset/function/My](https://myaddress/remote/preset/MyRemotePreset/function/My) Function

Don’t ask me why 😁 But I think it’s because of the way Unreal handles blueprint function names.

FYI You don’t need to put the preset on the level.
