getrenv

Returns a cached view of the Roblox global environment, including _G and shared.

Syntax

getrenv() -> table

Parameters

This function takes no parameters.

Returns

Description

getrenv is part of the Environment library. Environment helpers return or inspect the global, game and script environments used by the executor and the client.

The call is read-only: it resolves the current value when invoked and does not change the underlying state.

Example

local env = getrenv()
print(env._G, env.shared)

Notes

• Mutating a returned environment affects every script that shares it.
