Question by Cieran Churcher · Nov 18 at 01:32 AM · entitiesShared Group Data

Add group members to shared group

Hi, unsure about how to add group members to a shared group so that data can be shared? I can only get the entity IDs of group members and not the Playfab IDs.

Entities are any PlayFab concept that can contain data. Currently we have a number of built-in entity types: Title, master_player_account, title_player_account, Character.

master_player_account - This entity Type allows you to share information about a player across multiple games within a studio. This is similar to UserPublisherData. It is identified by the PlayFab ID (PlayFabId) of the player, which is returned as part of any login or any call to retrieve account information for the player account (for example, the PlayFab Client API GetAccountInfo).

So, the Entity Id of master_player_account is the PlayFab Id of the corresponding player. You can use the master_player_account Id to add group members to the shared group. You can check the doc Entities quickstart for more info of Entity.
