PlayFabEconomyAPI.ReviewItem not working

When I call PlayFabEconomyAPI.ReviewItem, it executes correctly, and doesn't give errors, but the ugc item still has 0 ratings.

When I put "rating" in the select parameter, I get this:

InvalidRequest: /Catalog/SearchItems: Unsupported property 'rating' in select. Correlation Id: 3EDHTt6JqUyBD3WGPkXz1A.0 MS-CV: 3EDHTt6JqUyBD3WGPkXz1A.0

Order by rating doens't work either.

But when I call PlayFabEconomyAPI.GetItemReviews, I get the ratings.

How do I get the ratings, and how do I order by rating with PlayFabEconomyAPI.ReviewItem.

Also the ratings don't appear here either: https://developer.playfab.com/en-us/r/t/<titleID>/economy/catalog/ugc

To sort by rating when SearchItems you can pass rating/average asc in OrderBy, refer to Search - PlayFab | Microsoft Docs for more details.

You can call GetItemReviews and GetItemReviewSummary to get ratings, there may be some delay in Game Manager.

So just to be clear, I can NOT get ratings with 'Search Items'?

Also, I rated one of my items with a rating of 4, and later when I pass rating/average asc in OrderBy, it doens't seem to order them, tho maybe I have to try to add a 'rating != null' or something now that I think about it.

How much delay can there be in the game manager, are we talking mins, hours, days? Can't check it now because I deleted the items that I rated. This delay is in the game manager you say, does it apply to the orderby aswell?

Thank you sir, you guys always answer very quickly!

In my testing, the delay was a few hours, and it also applies to SearchItems, so you can't get real-time ratings via SearchItems, and you can't sort by ratings immediately after updating them.
