Building player content based on groups

How can you build different player content based on the Addressable group? I have two addressable groups in my project, each for a different device type (Android Tablet vs. Android VR Headset). I only want to build the content from an Addressables group that is necessary for a particular device.

 

FIgured it out. You can check for the asset group name in a scriptable object by deriving from BuildScriptPackedMode and checking the asset group name in

protected override string ProcessGroup(AddressableAssetGroup assetGroup, AddressableAssetsBuildContext aaContext)

Here is my code. Don't have time to simplify the example, so there's a bunch of stuff specific to my case, but posting here in case it's helpful to someone:
