Storage → Update Data Store Entry

AI-generated

Overview

This node operation updates an existing data store entry within the Roblox Cloud Storage resource. It allows users to modify the content of a specific entry identified by its Entry ID in a given Data Store under a specified Universe ID. It supports an option to create the entry if it does not already exist (allowMissing). This operation is useful for managing and maintaining dynamic data in Roblox games or applications, such as player stats, game settings, or other persistent data.

Use Case Examples

  1. Updating a player's score in a game data store entry.
  2. Modifying configuration settings stored in a data store entry for a Roblox universe.

Properties

Name Meaning
Universe ID The universe ID that owns the storage resource, required to identify the scope of the data store.
Data Store ID The identifier of the data store containing the entry to update.
Entry ID The identifier of the specific data store entry to update.
Update Fields Additional query parameters for the update request, including 'Allow Missing' which determines whether to create the entry if it does not exist.
Data Store Entry The JSON body representing the new data for the data store entry.
Request Options Optional settings for the request such as batching, SSL certificate validation, proxy, and timeout.

Output

JSON

  • entryId - The ID of the updated data store entry.
  • dataStoreId - The ID of the data store containing the updated entry.
  • universeId - The universe ID owning the storage resource.
  • value - The updated value/content of the data store entry.
  • updatedAt - Timestamp of when the entry was last updated.

Dependencies

  • Roblox Cloud API with authentication credentials

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure that the Universe ID, Data Store ID, and Entry ID are correct and exist in the Roblox Cloud environment.
  • If 'Allow Missing' is false and the entry does not exist, the operation will fail; set 'Allow Missing' to true to create the entry if missing.
  • Check network connectivity and API credentials if requests fail due to authentication or authorization errors.
  • If SSL certificate validation fails and you trust the endpoint, enable 'Ignore SSL Issues' to bypass certificate errors.
