For example: Add https://connector.eagle3dstreaming.com/v5/demo/E3DSFeaturesTemplate/CmdLineDemo?exeLunchArgs=-blue The system has now appended the additional command and has sent both the command added into the config and the command added into the URL to the UE game. Example: |

Within the E3DSFeaturesTemplate App, there is a blueprint showing how to receive a value (in the E3DSFeaturesTemplate example we show how to use the Command Line to get an IP Address for multiplayer). |
