Blender look instance skipped silently

danielvw · 30 March 2026 16:37

I’m running into an issue during publish with the new look product type in Blender. I tried it with a simple cube (modeling) and just one material (lookdev).

Look publishing completes without error but logs the following:

Skipping, there are no representations to integrate for instance look

No files are written to the publish folder. The integration step is silently skipped.

My Setup:

AYON Blender Addon: 1.1.0
Blender: 5.0.1 / 5.1.0
OS: Rocky Linux

Has anyone successfully run through the new Look workflow? Is there an additional setup step I’m missing?

Thanks!

Hello,
Could you provide reproducible steps, publish log, more info about your scene?

As @mustafa_jafar pointed out - publish logs would help here. My first guess would be that for whatever reason a plug-in is unavailable, so check the Details > Crashed Plug-ins tab.

But exporting the Publish report JSON would help us to identify further why it may be failing on your end.

But Blender 5.0.1 with ayon-blender 1.1.0 works fine for me:

That’s on Windows, though.

Sure!

Create asset in AYON
Publish model (default cube)
Load model (abc) in lookdev task
Create look
Publish

Here’s the full log.

Good news: the issue is probably not related to Linux, I’m just too stupid… Tried it on Windows 11 with Blender 5.1 - same result!

If it’s you who was too stupid here - what was the problem and what was the solution? Or are you saying it’s still failing, but you’re also stupid!?

Yeah, sorry if that was unclear. What I meant is: it’s not a Linux-specific issue — I’m actually getting the same result on Windows as well. Using the exact same workflow, I’m unable to get a Look publish to work there either.

Hi, I guess its just missing look entry in the ayon-blender addon’s settings…

ayon+settings://blender/publish/ExtractBlend just add a new look entry and should be working…

Let me know if solved or not.

Hi Libor, thanks for your help! When I add lookto ExtractBlend I get a new error:

Hmm ynteresting…even tho I have realized its not neccessary to introduce a new entry with look for extracting a blend it works for me (I have tested even in two distinct ayon-blender addon versions and both been working fine…

It must be something at your side causing issues then…

here is my succesful publish (and also inspected manually the actual folder and yes all been there)

I tried doing a completely fresh installation. It works now!
