Been bashing my head against this today.

import maya.cmds as mc
mc.AbcImport('/path/to/alembic/animation1.abc', mode='import', 
connect='|path|to|lookdev|asset')

This works fine and dandy and the lookdev asset moves as it should.

However then I wan't to switch to a new animation and have tried running 
AbcImport again with path to the new animation and same connect. Tried both 
import and replace mode.
It switches the animation of the asset but it also creates a new 
AlembicNode keeping the old one in the scene. For some reason it's not 
allowed to change the path directly on the AlembicNode.

With a ton of assets and a ton of animation updates this will create loads 
and loads of not used AlembicNodes.

How are people solving this? Is anyone actually using AbcImport in 
production?
