How to create an unreal engine plugin that can import an fbx file from an web server

So you want to preform 2 different actions actully.

First is download of file from HTTP server, UE4 got HTTP module with APIs to communicate with them.

While searching for above link i found github example of file downloader implementation for it you can rearch that (but please try to understand it put this in your plugin, insted of making external plugin dependency, it a MIT license so it should not be issue)

2nd it’s importing asset, you do that with UFactory classes which are reprocible for asset creation. UFactory class got special static function which preform import:

Not sure which class you need to give it probably UStaticMesh and for UFactory there UFbxFactory

Thank you so much, it seems to work now after a little tweaks and changes, Big help!!!

can you please share a working example?
