CloudScript - Get item RemainingUses from inventory (Legacy)

Hi all,

I'm obviously spending a lot of time trying to learn C# and Playfab and i struggle to get the remaining uses of an item with a cloud script.

The cloud script is :

handlers.OnStatUpgrade = function(args){

     var getPlayerInv = server.GetUserInventory
     ({
         PlayFabId: currentPlayerId
     });
 
 var getPlayerInvItem = getPlayerInv.Inventory;  
 var getItemStats = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(getPlayerInvItem));
 if (getItemStats.ItemId = "LingotFer" ) {
     return getItemStats.RemainingUses;
 }

}

That doesn't works obviously. Yet getItemStats is equal to : {"ItemId":"LingotFer","ItemInstanceId":"46B41216B525616F","ItemClass":"CBSDefaultData","PurchaseDate":"2024-01-29T16:50:02.881Z","RemainingUses":4,"CatalogVersion":"CBSItems","DisplayName":"Plaque d'acier","UnitPrice":0},{"ItemId":"MetalBar","ItemInstanceId":"AC7ADEA8AFDB97CB","ItemClass":"CBSDefaultData","PurchaseDate":"2024-01-28T18:18:50.018Z","RemainingUses":10,"Annotation":"Granted via Game Manager","CatalogVersion":"CBSItems","DisplayName":"Barre de métal","UnitPrice":0},{"ItemId":"GemShard","ItemInstanceId":"CDD457783C0F1009","ItemClass":"CBSDefaultData","PurchaseDate":"2024-01-28T18:18:37.053Z","RemainingUses":5,"Annotation":"Granted via Game Manager","CatalogVersion":"CBSItems","DisplayName":"Eclats de gemme","UnitPrice":0},{"ItemId":"Chaine","ItemInstanceId":"497A0FD4CC3664DD","ItemClass":"CBSDefaultData","PurchaseDate":"2024-01-28T14:36:54.53Z","RemainingUses":2,"Annotation":"Granted via Game Manager","CatalogVersion":"CBSItems","DisplayName":"Chaîne d'acier","UnitPrice":0},{"ItemId":"Rouage","ItemInstanceId":"A3320B768796F7EA","ItemClass":"CBSDefaultData","PurchaseDate":"2024-01-28T12:54:48.156Z","RemainingUses":8,"Annotation":"Granted via Game Manager","CatalogVersion":"CBSItems","DisplayName":"Rouage","UnitPrice":0}]

I would like to be able to retrieve the item remaining uses for a specific itemId, here "LingotFer". Do you know how to proceed ?

Best regards,

Mikael

Since calling the GetUserInventory API on the client side to get the remaining usage of an item is fine, may I know the reason you want to get the remaining usage of an item in Could Script?

Hi, yes of course ! I have a scene where the player can update the statistics of his characters. In the game client, i check if the player has the correspondings ressources for each upgrade. These ressources are items in the inventory. I check in the game client if the button can be interactable. But when the player click on it to make an upgrade, i was thinking that it would be better to double check if he has the relevants items and currencies in his inventory before trying to remove items and update the player data.

Since you want to double-check that the number of items is sufficient and remove items from the player's inventory when they are sufficient, you can use the ConsumItms API to do both. When the quantity of the item is insufficient, APi will return an error. When the quantity is sufficient, the corresponding number of items will be consumed.
