| name | The name of the object reference in string format. This string name must be unique within your project or the overwrite parameter must be set to true. |
| obj | Object reference to be stored. This object must be persisted and not null. |
| overwrite | Boolean parameter used to specify that you want to overwrite an entry with the same name if one already exists. |
void
Throws an exception if the object is null, not persisted, or if there is a name conflict and the overwrite parameter is set to false.
Store a reference to a config object by name.
The object must be an asset in the project, otherwise it will not be saved when the editor is restarted or scripts are reloaded. To avoid name conflicts with other packages, it is recommended that names are qualified by a namespace, i.e. "company.package.name".

//if a config data object exists with the same name, return its config data if (EditorBuildSettings.TryGetConfigObject<MyConfigData>(stringName, out data)) return data;
