Hello pmathur,

I’m not familiar with using Swarm myself but maybe these two resources could help you.

The first is an answerhub where one of our developers answered a question about how to use swarm with quite a bit of detail: [Swarm - What is it and how to use it? - Platform & Builds - Epic Developer Community Forums](https://answers.unrealengine.com/questions/27550/swarm-what-is-it-and-how-to-use-it.html)

The second is a troubleshooting guide set up by a co-worker on how to fix a lot of common problems with SwarmAgent:

> After over a year in maintenance mode, the official Unreal Engine Wiki is now permanently offline. These resources now live on a new community-run Unreal Engine Community Wiki — https://unrealcommunity.wiki/! You will be able to find content from...

Hope this helps!
