Hi we are looking to provide a points(statistics) summary for a user. To do this we would need to get the ranking in the leaderboard for a user as well as the value of his leaderboard statistics.
I would just like to know what would be the best way to go about this? Should we create a cloudscript that generates an event with the relevant data? I read somewhere that event data is available in email templates.
Email template does support showing player profiles, however as you can see in PlayerProfileModel, only those properties with string type can be displayed properly in the Email Template. For example, $Profile.DisplayName$.
You are free to add a thread on our Feature Requests forum about it if there is no existing one. More votes from other users can help with the priority.
I am specifically referring to point 3 in the below statement

Would the above comment mean that I can pull information into the email template using a custom event?
Yes, For example, I set up a rule that will be triggered by player_statistic_changed event and it will send an email from template:
So in the template, you can write $Event.StatisticValue$ and it will show as 603 in player's email.
