I'm using the PlayFab Unity extension. When I click the API tab in the PlayFab extension, I see a number of options:
Enable Client API
Enable Admin API
Enable Server API
Enable Request Times.
Right now I only have Enable Client API checked as on. Admin and Server API I don't think I need yet. However I can't find any documentation on Request Times and what that would do. Does anybody have any idea? Thanks for the help.
You're absolutely right, very few customers need the admin or server APIs, and never for the game-client. You should only enable those for game-servers, built in a separate unity project from your game-client. Never release any project or build which has the server or admin APIs enabled, because that will result in a security problem with your game.
Request timing is an internal debugging option which has accidentally been made visible to customers. It is safe to play with, but not terribly useful unless you are curious. It basically provides some feedback about how long API calls take.
Please note, there will be a very minor performance impact of enabling this. So if you're interested, check out the code:

Then, play with it, and then turn it back off.
