vincentpiedeloup suggested an idea · Oct 13, 2020 at 07:48 AM · FriendsCloudScript

Adding or removing Friend friend with a list (and one request) instead of one by one

Add the possibility to give a list of Friend to AddFriend and RemoveFriend API calls
to avoid adding them one by one.

Playfab doesn't handle all store, like Epic, Gog, Google, custom... so adding friend has to be done manually and it's really problematic, mostly because of the API call limit.

New friend list from store can be very big, and it's impossible to know if a friend have our game or not. So we have to try, adding friend, catch error and go to the next.
Xbox can handle up to 3000 friend, PSN 10000... adding one by one, with a 25 api call limit is quite hard.

We would recommend checking the policies of the platforms in question. Some platforms with friends lists specifically do not allow copying the list out. This is in part for privacy reasons (the player could change privacy settings at any time), but also because that list is going to change over time, invalidating the "copy" you make.

Wow, almost 2 years on and it still feels like we're living in the dark ages. This really needs more votes...
