matchmake and CreateMatchmakingTicket

Hello, I created a perfectly working matchmaking system following this tutorial:

https://api.playfab.com/docs/tutorials/landing-tournaments/matchmaking-unity-quickstart

but matches the players without taking in consideration the statistics. I saw we can specify and statistic with matchmake, but I don't understand how I can use Matchmake in the structure I made with the tutorial.

Is there a tutorial or any examples of how I must use Matchmake?

Thank you very much :)

Hi! :) I'm talking about player statistic:


https://api.playfab.com/documentation/client/method/Matchmake

StatisticNameString
Player statistic to use in finding a match. May be null for no stat-based matching.

I want to specify and statistic when matchmaking players, but the only way I see I can do that is with Matchmake, but I don't really know how to use matchmake and how I can add it to the code I made in this tutorial:

https://api.playfab.com/docs/tutorials/landing-tournaments/matchmaking-unity-quickstart

https://api.playfab.com/documentation/client/method/Matchmake is for Legacy Custom Servers.

Please use our new documentation website on: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/gaming/playfab/?#pivot=documentation&panel=multiplayer

Theoretically it should be simply: Skill, without any additional characters or notations. Give it a try and tell us if there is any issue.

Thank you very much! :) Sorry, didn't see Matchmake was for Legacy Servers!!

One last question, please. I have this code in CreateMatchmakingTicketRequest:

PlayFabMultiplayerAPI.CreateMatchmakingTicket(
         new CreateMatchmakingTicketRequest
         {
             Creator = new MatchmakingPlayer
             {
                 Entity = new EntityKey
                 {
                     Id = entityId,
                     Type = entityType,
                 },


                 Attributes = new MatchmakingPlayerAttributes
                 {
                     DataObject = new
                     {
                         Skill = RankingActual
                     },
                 },
             },

             GiveUpAfterSeconds = 120,
             QueueName = "trialQueue",
         },

I have an Attribute named "Skill", that is the attribute I want to use to match users with equal ranking points. I know I must put that attribute in Attribute path (image below) but I don't know how to write a JSON sentence with that.

It's just {"Skill"} and that would do it? Or am I wrong?

Thank you very much for all! :)
