Question by kylemukundi · Oct 23, 2020 at 02:03 AM · Player Dataunity3ddata

How do I store arrays in player data?

Hello. I am making a party invite feature for my game, and I would like to store an array of structs, each struct is a party invite which contains party invite data such as username and avatarurl. However, to store data, you can only use string key-value pairs. How would I go about storing an array?

In the common scenario, we will use JSON to store the structured value and convert the format between Objects and String. In PlayFab SDK, you may use the following codes to serialize and deserialize the data:

PlayFab.PluginManager.GetPlugin<ISerializerPlugin>(PluginContract.PlayFab_Serializer)

In addition, you may also use the Newtonsoft.Json NuGet package to do the conversion.
