I've recently picked up PlayFab for my Unity project. I've hit sort of a brick wall with a feature I'd like to implement. I want the user to be able to search for other players through a standard "Search For Players" menu where they can input a username and find results of matching, or partially matching, users.
I've seen many responses saying that query features from the client do not support wildcards, that they only match one user, and that getting all users from the client is too many API calls and should not be done. Okay, that's fine, I understand! ...But that's where all the answers ended.
I'm confident this should be possible -- it's a feature almost every game has, and I'd be shocked if PlayFab had no way of supporting this -- but I'm not familiar enough with PlayFab to know what exactly I should be doing as a work-around. Someone had mentioned they solved it using Cloudscript, but that's all they said on the matter.
If anyone has any suggestions as to what I could do to implement this system I'd be really grateful!
Thanks!
