Item not owned in "GrantCharacterToUser"
Create a new Item in the Primary catalog, set "01" as ItemId, "Soldier" as DisplayName, pick "Is a token for character creation".
But still have "Item Not Owned" error in the next method:
public void BuyCharacter()
{
var request = new GrantCharacterToUserRequest();
request.CatalogVersion = "Economy";
request.CharacterName = "Soldier";
request.ItemId = "01";
PlayFabClientAPI.GrantCharacterToUser(request, OnBuyCharacter, OnPlayFabError);
}

In general, there are mainly two routes to grant a character to a player:
- Use the Server API call Server/GrantCharacterToUser to grant a character to a user, this requires no item defined in Catalog in advance.
- Use the Client API call Client/GrantCharacterToUser to grant a character to a user, this requires an item being a token for character creation defined in Catalog. Moreover, the user must also need to have this item added in his/her inventory before calling the Client/GrantCharacterToUser API to grant a character, this can be done by selling or granting the character item to the player. This mechanism intends to prevent cheats from the client-side.
It seems that you are implementing the second route, hence, you’ll need to have the player add the item into his/her inventory before calling Client/GrantCharacterToUser.

Thanks, haven't checked yet, but think, this is the answer - l really didn't add an item to inventory.
