# Create a Volume Profile

To create a Volume Profile, create a GameObject from the **GameObject** > **Volume** menu. You can select one of the following:

- [**Global Volume**](understand-volumes.md)
- [**Sky and Fog Global Volume**](visual-environment-volume-override-reference.md)
- **Box Volume**
- **Sphere Volume**
- **Convex Mesh Volume**

Unity creates and links a Volume Profile automatically when you create one of these volumes.

You can also create a Volume Profile manually. To do this, navigate to **Assets** > **Create** > **Rendering** > **Volume Profile**.

Open the Volume Profile in the Inspector to edit its properties.  To do this, you can either:

- Select the Volume Profile in the Assets folder.
- Select a GameObject with a Volume component that has a Volume Profile set in its **Profile** field.
