Hello everyone,
I want the players to be able to setup their display name while registering an account in the game. Afterwards, they will be able to change their display name by using a virtual currency. My question is how can I prevent the players from changing their display name? And how can I set their display name by using cloudscript?
I found "Permission Policies" on the Internet but I didn't understand the logic exactly. A code example for this question would be really helpful.
Bump.
I am still looking for a solution for this. I have found this thread but the solution is not clear. It looks like he changed ApiPolicy, but where is that option?

You can navigate to this doc API access policy for more info on how to set API access policy. In addition to using C# code to achieve this target, you also can use external REST API testing tools (for example, Postman, you can find Postman SDK here) to set the API policy. You need to set it via Admin API UpdatePolicy, and please refer to the following content to deny the access of Client API UpdateUserTitleDisplayName.
{
"PolicyName": "ApiPolicy",
"Statements": [
{
"Resource": "pfrn:api--*",
"Action": "*",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": "*",
"Comment": "The default allow all policy"
},
{
"Resource": "pfrn:api--/Client/UpdateUserTitleDisplayName",
"Action": "*",
"Effect": "Deny",
"Principal": "*",
"Comment": "This statement denies request to UpdateUserTitleDisplayName"
}
],
"OverwritePolicy": false
}

Currently, PlayFab only provides Admin and Client API UpdateUserTitleDisplayName to update the title specific display name for a user. CloudScript methods have full access to PlayFab's Server API set, but can’t access admin API directly. The recommended solution is building your own custom server or admin management tool to call the Admin API like UpdateUserTitleDisplayName.
