I activated the GameSparks plugin for Corona but nothing happened. Is it supposed to work in conjunction with the GameSparks API?
GameSparks is a “BaaS” or Backend as a Service focused on the online things games needs to do. It has a very deep set of API calls for doing things from authorization to handling multi-player content to tracking your IAPs/Game Currency and more.
They recently posted a tutorial to build a multi-player tic-tac-toe game:
https://docs.gamesparks.com/tutorials/game-engine-integrations/corona-1v1-asynchronous-match.html
I recommend starting there.
The plugin enables you to call their API’s directly from Corona instead of writing your own REST based service.

Oh, ok. Do I set up the plugin under build.settings?
Yes. All plugins have to be added to build.settings. They also have to be required in each module where you want to use them. And they likely have initialization sequences that have to be called.
