calling PlayFabCloudScriptAPI.ExecuteFunction with Admin or secret key

I'm trying to call a Azure Functions cloudscript function through the Unity Playfab SDK.

It seems to me at the moment this is only possible with a Client Entity token, and not within the Admin context. My code works when I am in Play mode and the client has logged in.

PlayFabCloudScriptAPI.ExecuteFunction(new ExecuteFunctionRequest()
{
    Entity = new PlayFab.CloudScriptModels.EntityKey()
    {
        Id = PlayFabSettings.staticPlayer.EntityId, 
        Type = PlayFabSettings.staticPlayer.EntityType,
    },
    FunctionName = "myFunction",
    FunctionParameter = new Dictionary<string, object>()
    {
        {"player", playfabID},
    }
}, (ExecuteFunctionResult result) => { Debug.Log(result); 
}, (PlayFabError error) => { Debug.Log(error.GenerateErrorReport()); 
});

But I need it to work in Admin context, in editor-mode, for maintenance functions.

This line from PlayFabCloudScriptAPI.cs prevents the function from being called

if (!context.IsEntityLoggedIn()) 

throw new PlayFabException(PlayFabExceptionCode.NotLoggedIn,"Must be logged in to call this method");

If I comment it out, it tries to execute it but I get the following error:

This API method does not allow anonymous callers.

PS: I've asked a similar question but I can't seem to edit it, or remove it. Sorry for double posting.

This error is caused by missing EntityToken. As a workaround, you can call it in the resultCallback of AuthenticationAPI.GetEntityToken. This API will login your title with SecretKey and return a title level EntityToken.

 public static async void CallCloudScriptEditorTime(string somePlayfabID)
    {
        var isDone = false;
        var entityToken = "";
        PlayFab.AuthenticationModels.EntityKey entity = null;
        PlayFabAuthenticationAPI.GetEntityToken(
            new PlayFab.AuthenticationModels.GetEntityTokenRequest(){}, 
            (result)=>{
                isDone = true;
                Debug.Log(result.EntityToken);
                entityToken = result.EntityToken;
                entity = result.Entity;
            },
            (error)=>{
                isDone = true;
                Debug.Log(error.GenerateErrorReport());
            }
        );
        while (!isDone)
        {
            await Task.Delay(1000); 
        }
        PlayFabCloudScriptAPI.ExecuteFunction(new ExecuteFunctionRequest() {
            AuthenticationContext = new PlayFabAuthenticationContext("",entityToken,somePlayfabID,entity.Id, entity.Type),
            Entity = new PlayFab.CloudScriptModels.EntityKey() { Id = entity.Id, Type = entity.Type },
            FunctionName = "MyFunction",
        }, (result) => {
            // Do something with result
        }, (error) => {
            // Error
        });
    }

Thanks for the tip, I got it to work with the above code.
