Get friend username from friends list

General (non-technical) Testing Forum for Moderators / Admins

Current, friends.getAll() will only return following informations in the event.response table:

‘_id’,

‘created_at’,

‘friend_id’,

‘updated_at’.

‘user_id’

All fields have ‘id’ keywords are string like this : ‘517e28c72bef5a6e6a000000’

Is there a way we can retrive the username of friends? because user name will be used when list out player’s friends

Hi @Jadynut,

What is shown when you access the “username”, “first_name”, and “last_name” parameters? Does it return the proper information for you?

Hi,

What you will need to do is use function getProfile( userId ) by passing the ‘user_id’.

Thanks
