Dragging texture to Unity object vs Blender object?

Unity Engine
1

Good day

I am starting to play a bit with using textures. I have created a cube from within Unity and another cube that I created in Blender (without applying textures in Blender) and imported into Unity.

I have a wood grain texture. When I drag the texture onto the Unity cube, the wood grain texture shows, but when I drag the same texture onto the cube from Blender the cube turns brown, but does not display the wood grain. I have attached a screen shot of the two cubes.

What am I missing here?

Kind regards.

You need to UV map your models or unity has no way to know how to apply the texture to the mesh.
If you do not know how to UV map in blender, just search for “UV Map in blender” in your favorite search engine.

Thank you. I shall explore that on the weekend.
