Agora provides [Open-source sample projects on GitHub](https://github.com/AgoraIO-Extensions/Agora-Unity-Quickstart/tree/main/API-Example-Unity) to demonstrate the implementation of basic and advanced RTC SDK features.

This page shows how to compile, configure, and run the RTC SDK Unity sample project.

### Get the sample project

Obtain the sample project using one of the following methods:

* Go to the [SDKs](/sdks) page, download the latest version of the RTC SDK, and unzip it. You see a `.unitypackage` file.

  Open the `.unitypackage` file. An **Import Unity Package window** pops up. Click **Import** to import the SDK into your project. After the import is complete, you see the `Agora-RTC-PLUGIN` folder in the project panel.

* Run the following command to clone the repository locally:

  ```bash
  git clone https://github.com/AgoraIO-Extensions/Agora-Unity-Quickstart.git
  cd Agora-Unity-Quickstart/API-Example-Unity
  ```

### Configure the sample project

In `Agora-RTC-PLUGIN/API-Example/AppIdInput.asset`, fill in the App ID, temporary token, and channel name you obtained from the Agora Console.

## Run the sample project

      
  
      
  
      
  
      
  
      
  
      
  
      
  
      
  
      
1. The `API-Example` folder contains two folders, `Basic` and `Advanced`, that contain usage examples of basic and advanced use-cases of Agora SDK. Select the demo you want to run and click **Play** to compile.

2. Choose video calls as an example. After successful compilation, you see your local video preview.

3. To test various audio and video interaction use-cases, connect to the [Agora web demo](https://webdemo.agora.io/basicVideoCall/index.html), or install and run the sample project on a second device. Make sure you use the same app ID on both devices. When you join the same channel from two devices, you can see and hear each other.
