Run waapi script on import event

0 votes
Is there anyway to trigger custom waapi scripts based on wwise editor events?
The use case I have in mind is to automatically generate corresponding events when source files are imported

What you could do is to start a stand-by script that is always running. The script would subscribe to ak.wwise.core.audio.imported, and execute additional WAAPI calls every time a "imported" publish is received:

You may also look at ak.wwise.core.object.created. This would allow you to know when new sounds are created.  You might also be interested to ak.wwise.core.object.nameChanged. 

Hope this helps!
