CloudScript Windows10
Hi there,
I am working on a UWP Windows 10 app.
To prevent cheating, I look to count points, by adding a cloudscript.
So far it works (I see in the PlayScreen Monitor) but I am struggling with the handling of the result:
private static void StartCloudHelloWorld()
{
var test = PlayFabClientAPI.ExecuteCloudScript(new ExecuteCloudScriptRequest()
{
FunctionName = "ResetPlayerStats",
FunctionParameter = new { high = 777 },
GeneratePlayStreamEvent = true,
});
OnCloudHelloWorld(test.Result.Result);
}
public static void OnCloudHelloWorld(ExecuteCloudScript result)
{
string msg = (JsonWrapper.SerializeObject(result.FunctionResult));
JsonObject js = (JsonObject)result.FunctionResult;
object mmV;
js.TryGetValue("mmV", out mmV);
}
<br>
The first parts works, and I see the points are updated but when it come to
OnCloudHelloWorld(test.Result.Result) the app shuts down.
I fear there is something with my code, but don't see where.
Hopefully anyone can help me out.
Many thanks in advance,
Michael

Apologies for the delay. I got this working for you but never posted it. If you are still having issues, you can take a look at my code.
public MainPage()
{
this.InitializeComponent();
PlayFabSettings.TitleId = "XXXX";
ExecuteAsyncTasks();
}
private static async void ExecuteAsyncTasks()
{
await Authenticate();
await StartCloudHelloWorld().ContinueWith(executeCloudScriptResult =>
OnCloudHelloWorld(executeCloudScriptResult.Result.Result));
}
private static async Task Authenticate()
{
var loginWithPlayFabRequest = new LoginWithPlayFabRequest()
{
Username = "XXXX",
Password = "XXXX"
};
await PlayFabClientAPI.LoginWithPlayFabAsync(loginWithPlayFabRequest);
}
private static async Task<PlayFabResult<ExecuteCloudScriptResult>> StartCloudHelloWorld()
{
var executeCloudScriptRequest = new ExecuteCloudScriptRequest()
{
FunctionName = "ResetPlayerStats",
FunctionParameter = new { high = 777 },
GeneratePlayStreamEvent = true,
};
return await PlayFabClientAPI.ExecuteCloudScriptAsync(executeCloudScriptRequest);
}
public static void OnCloudHelloWorld(ExecuteCloudScriptResult result)
{
string msg = (JsonWrapper.SerializeObject(result.FunctionResult));
JsonObject js = (JsonObject)result.FunctionResult;
object messageValue;
js.TryGetValue("messageValue", out messageValue);
}
Hi Michael,
Could you please post the cloud script function that you are calling? Also, what game engine/sdk are you using to build this UWP app?
Hi @Marcus Nixon,
many thanks for the quick reply.
I am using Visual Studio 2017, with PlayFabAllSdk, v1.49.190424.
So, I don't use any engine eg Unity.
My cloud script is the following:
handlers.ResetPlayerStats = function (args, context) {
var request = {
PlayFabId: currentPlayerId, Statistics: [{
StatisticName: "highScore", // is the name of my Leaderboard, which should be updated
Value: args.high
}]
};
var playerStatResult = server.UpdatePlayerStatistics(request);
};
Thanks for your help!!!
Best wishes,
Michael
Hi Michael,
It looks like your OnCloudHelloWorld function is expecting a result from your cloud script function, but your cloud script function does not have a return value. I was unable to compile your code exactly as you posted, but after making some changes, I did see an unhandled exception inside your OnCloudHelloWorld function.
Hi there,
thanks for the hint.
I've changed the Code slightly to get the Code working.
But I still receive an error "Aggregate exception".
I changed the lines into
txtDebug.Text = test8.Result.Result.ToString();
just to receive a message back.
Does anybody know how to solve this?
Many thanks,
Michael
I am not sure which lines of code you have changed. Can you post your new cloud script code and C# code so that I am not making any assumptions.
Hi there,
I've added the following in my CloudScript and it now looks like this:
/ This is a simple example of making a PlayFab server API call
handlers.ResetPlayerStats = function (args, context) {
var request = {
PlayFabId: currentPlayerId, Statistics: [{
StatisticName: "highScore",
Value: args.high
}]
};
// The pre-defined "server" object has functions corresponding to each PlayFab server API
// (https://api.playfab.com/Documentation/Server). It is automatically
// authenticated as your title and handles all communication with
// the PlayFab API, so you don't have to write extra code to issue HTTP requests.
var playerStatResult = server.UpdatePlayerStatistics(request);
return {messageValue: "Cloud Updated"};
};
Unfortunately I am still struggling as the app brokes down after the CloudScript had been executed.
What's curious is that I can see in Playstream monitor that it's been successfully executed.
I just want to achieve that I get a message back, so that I can display the user, everything had been fine or not.
I appreciate any further hints.
Many thanks in advance,
best wishes Michael
many thanks for your answer. Now it's working as expected.
Enjoy your weekend,
best wishes,
Michael
