So I'm Trying to get all the current Catalog Versions for a editor script inside unity so that I can then query through that specific catalog and allow our game designers so make changes inside of unity where we have specific custom data that we'll be adding to the catalog items. I can't seem to find in the API reference though how to find which Catalog Version exist or any way get all that exist as this would be very useful. If there is anyway to get this to work that would be awesome.
We want to do something similar as well. Is there any update on the API.
In general, the way the Catalog system is designed is that you have a single catalog for all the items in your game, and then version that when you do an update to your game where you have significant changes to make. The new Game Manager (n2.playfab.com) reflects this much more clearly, as it organizes the Drop Tables, Stores, and Containers under the catalog more explicitly. Owning to that, there isn't really a query for all catalog versions. What's the design of how you're using different catalogs in the service right now?
Making a Unity editor that along with all stuff that the base catalog items do will also have custom data displayed nicely in the Unity Editor for our game designers. we then parse the custom data into a json string and save in the customData string of the catalog Item. I would like to be able load all the catalog items from any catalog version that exists, so we can selectively change any catalog version. But to do that in Unity I will need the name of all the catalog versions that exist
Makes sense, and I'll add a backlog item for this. However, it may be some time before this becomes part of the platform (we prioritize in part based upon feedback from developers), so for now I would have to recommend keeping track of your catalog versions as part of your local configuration info in your build process.
Just curious if there was any movement on providing this API? We are looking to do something similar, but in UE4.
Hello,
Any progress on this?
Thanks,
