Player messaging

Mihael

I'd like to implement a message system, where players can message one another. Currently the best way I've come up with is to create a shared group for every friend pair, and use the groups data for the players to communicate, but this seems a bit complicated. This is fairly flexible as this allows for another user to join in, but is that the right way?

Is there a simpler way of achieving this?

Yes, the simpler way would be to use a single Shared Group Data for each user. Then, you can write to it using PlayFab ID of the player sending the message as the Key, and the message itself as the Value.
