FDataTableRowHandle using meta = (RequiredAssetDataTags = "RowStructure=S_StructName")?

Is it possible to limit the UDataTable Property within an FDataTableRowHandle struct to a specific struct type?

The next example is not working for the FDataTableRowHandle. Is there a solution?

UPROPERTY(meta = (RequiredAssetDataTags = "RowStructure=S_StructName"))
  FDataTableRowHandle DT = FDataTableRowHandle();

UDataTable* Table;

OR

UPROPERTY(meta = (RowType="MyStruct"))
FDataTableRowHandle RowHandle;

Thanks, this is very useful info. I think it is not yet in docs.unrealengine.
I’m going to test it asap.

Perfect, thanks again. Structs name in RowType is entered without the F prefix.
Can this information be added to: ?

The vast majority of custom meta specifiers are not in that documentation page because it’s auto-generated from the global ones.

Items like “RowType” are part of special Detail Customisation classes that look for custom meta markup. Unfortuantely there’s no easy way to parse them all.

In UE 5.2 this no longer works for UDataTable, in order to make it work you need to use this:

UPROPERTY(Meta=(RequiredAssetDataTags = "RowStructure=/Script/Aura.UIWidgetRow"))
TObjectPtr<UDataTable> MessageWidgetDataTable;

You can find the exact name here (picture below), it’s usually ModuleName.StructName (without the initial F)

Funny thing, you can’t add spaces before and after =
RowStructure=/Script/ works.
RowStructure = /Script/ does not.

Thanks for letting us know :slight_smile: I’m always formatting things with spaces, this is easy to break then.
