GetTitleData retunrning null for some keys

Hi everyone!

We are suddenly experiencing a strange issue today. It seems like GetTitleData is returning null for one of the keys. We are storing gzip compressed jsons as the value of some of the title data keys (this has been working fine for the past few months) and we suspect that for long entries (around 7kb) Playfab is returning null as the value.

However the values show properly on the dashboard (see the attachments)

Also, we have been able to reproduce the issue by inserting a random long (around 8000 character) string as a TitleData entry by just pasting it on the dashboard and then trying to request it. It will return "null" as a response.

We used this tool to generate the 8K long string

Since the limit for a title data entry is supposed to be 20KB, is this behaviour expected? Can anyone shed some light on it?


Thanks beforehand!

Update: after some trial and error, it seems like GetTitleData will return null for any entry above 5000 bytes. Has a new (and lower) limit for title data values been introduced recently? We can't find any information about this...

This was due to a temporary issue with large Title Data which was updated via the Game Manager. The issue has since been fixed, so you shouldn't be seeing it anymore, but let us know if you are running into any issues.
