UpdatePlayerData Returning Success But Not Committing Data

Hi. I'm using playfab with UE4. I'm trying to update a player's data from the server. I have the developer secret api key set and am calling the correct updateplayerdata node. This is what I'm sending as the data to UpdatePlayerData:

camp: {
                    BuildingObjects: [
                        {
                            ID: "Dummy_Foundation",
                            Durability: 200,
                            Floor: 1,
                            Transform:
                            {
                                Location: [ 45078.5234375, 75703.8046875, -1933.546142578125 ],
                                Rotation:
                                {
                                    "X": [ 0.64278686046600342, 0.76604509353637695, 0 ],
                                    "Y": [ -0.76604509353637695, 0.64278686046600342, -0 ],
                                    "Z": [ -0, 0, 1 ]
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    ]
                }

The call returns success, but when I go to look at the player's public data, there's nothing there. In fact, when I manually put something in the player's title data via the web interface and then make the above call, it clears out the player's title data.

Any idea why this is happening?

May I know which "player's public data" you were referring to? Could you please share the screenshot?

Yes, I was looking at the Player Data(Title) tab.

OK, UpdateUserData takes a stringified & escaped JSON object as the value, more info, please see: https://community.playfab.com/questions/8740/updateuserdata-question-regarding-json-arrays.html.

Therefore, for your case, the request should be like this:

Request: {
    "Data":
    {
        "Camp": "{\"BuildingObjects\":[{\"ID\":\"Dummy_Foundation\",\"Durability\":200,\"Floor\":1,\"Transform\":{\"Location\":[44987.48046875,74542.5703125,-1799.57470703125],\"Rotation\":{\"X\":[1,0,0],\"Y\":[0,1,0],\"Z\":[0,0,1]}}}]}"
    },    
    "KeysToRemove": null,
    "Permission": "Public",
    "PlayFabId": "688302B369F9BC73"
}
