How do I get the IP/Port of a server from ListMultiplayerServers?
I'm trying to implement a 'reconnect' feature where a player can reconnect to their old session in the event that they were disconnected (or their computer crashed).
Currently I'm trying to use ListMultiplayerServers and compare that with the player's saved ServerId to figure out which server he should connect to.
More context: this is a continuation of this thread:
I will reply your previous questions in this thread:
The reason why “Only entities of the following types may call this API: title” occurs is that ListMultiplayerServers API needs a higher permission which is not exposed to players and only administrator is able to make this call. To get a entity token, If you are using RESTful testing tools like Postman, you may simply call GetEntityToken to get. Be aware that you may enter the secret key as value of “X-SecretKey” field in the header and leave out(uncheck) the property “X-Authorization”.
Ps. I will close the previous thread and if you have any other questions, feel free to reply in this thread.

>>get the IP/Port of a server from ListMultiplayerServers
It seems not feasible to do it by the players. The IPV4Address, Ports and Regions are contained in the
ServerDetails, which is a property of callback result of GetMatch API. When you first call the GetMatch API, I’d suggest you store the details locally.
Thanks for the context. I figured out a workaround where I just store the IP/Port as part of a player's Player Data. I'll consider the GetMatch approach (assuming I'd need to store the MatchId and QueueName in the player's Player Data) if this workaround doesn't work.
