ESX.GetPlayerData

ESX client documentation with a FiveM Lua example.

Summary

Returns the local player's data on the client in ESX — job, accounts, inventory, and more.

Returns

table — the player data (job, accounts, inventory, etc.)

Example

ESX = exports['es_extended']:getSharedObject()

local data = ESX.GetPlayerData()
print(data.job.name)
print(data.job.grade_label)

Common pitfalls

  • On ESX 1.9+ always get the object via exports['es_extended']:getSharedObject() — the old TriggerEvent pattern is deprecated and causes 'attempt to index a nil value (global ESX)'.
  • Client-side data isn't authoritative — validate on the server.
