GetPlayerIdentifiers

Summary

Returns a table of a player's identifiers (license, steam, discord, ip, etc.). The reliable way to identify a player, unlike their changeable name.

Returns

table — array of identifier strings.

Parameters

Example

-- SERVER
local ids = GetPlayerIdentifiers(source)
for _, id in ipairs(ids) do
  if string.find(id, 'license:') then
    print('License: ' .. id)
  end
end

Common pitfalls

• Prefer the license: identifier as a stable primary key — steam may be missing if the player isn't on Steam.
• This is server-side only; identifiers must never be trusted from the client.
