Get CustomID

Is there a way to retrieve the CustomID? 

I am trying to resolve a situation where you could recover your account on a different device using GameCenter. But I also don't want you to be required to play the game if you do not have gamecenter. So the logic would be if you have a GameCenter see if user exists on PlayFab linked to that game center. If so pull down the CustomID that was linked when the account was created. They may sound a little convoluted but I have an entire workflow thought out for this and am trying to fit playfab into the flow.

We have a backlog item to add the CustomID to the returned data from the call to GetAccountInfo/GetUserAccountInfo/GetUserCombinedInfo. We don't have this work scheduled as yet, but what is your planned shipping date (if this is sensitive, please feel free to email us at devrel@playfab.com)?

Yes, the server and admin API calls now return the Custom ID (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/playfab/server/account-management/getuseraccountinfo?view=playfab-rest#useraccountinfo).

@Brendan Why does result.InfoResultPayload.AccountInfo.CustomIdInfo.CustomId give a null ref exception in Unity SDK when trying to call it from the LoginResult?
var request = new LoginWithCustomIDRequest() {CustomId = playerId, CreateAccount = true};

PlayFabClientAPI.LoginWithCustomID(request, OnLoginSuccess, OnLoginFailed);private void OnLoginSuccess(LoginResult result)
    {
                    
        PlayerPrefs.SetString("PlayFabCustomId", result.InfoResultPayload.AccountInfo.CustomIdInfo.CustomId);
    }

Otherwise, how can I get the customId from the LoginResult?

As with the Get...Info calls, we're only returning the account info that's specifically requested. If you want to get the Custom ID returned in the body of the response to a call to LoginWithCustomId, you'd have to specify that by setting GetUserAccountInfo to true in the InfoRequestParameters of the call.
