Unity URP 2D light - unity3d

Question

I've recently discovered the URP and am developing a 2D game for fun. I added a global 2d light and set up some code to grab the light component, but unity keeps saying that light 2D does not exist. The error in unity is "error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'Light2D' could not be found". This is the code I have so far. I also followed a tutorial by Jimmy Vegas to grab the system time.
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;
using System;
public class DayNight : MonoBehaviour
{
public GameObject theDisplay;
public GameObject GL;
public int hour;
public int minutes;
public int totaltime;
private bool AM;
void Start()
{
totaltime = System.DateTime.Now.Hour;
hour = System.DateTime.Now.Hour;
minutes = System.DateTime.Now.Minute;
}
public void Night()
{
//change light settings
GL.GetComponent<Light2D>().Intensity = 0.4;
}
}

Answer 1

To reference the Light2D Component you need to add the UnityEngine.Experimental.Rendering.Universal namespace to your code.
Namespace Example:
...
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.Experimental.Rendering.Universal;
public class DayNight : MonoBehaviour
{
...
}
If you get an Error you need to just continue and try to compile it, to see if it actually works.
After that is done you should be able to access the Light2D Component of your GameObject without any further troubles.
Calling Light2D Example:
public float nightvalue = 0.4f;
public void Night()
{
// Change light intensity to nightvalue.
GL.GetComponent<Light2D>().intensity = nightvalue;
}
