API to request Bundle Thumbnail

As a Roblox developer, it is currently impossible to retrieve a bundle thumbnail from Roblox. There is no exposed API for this anywhere, which makes displaying a preview of a bundle in-game really tough. Right now we have to do one of the following:

  • Have an existing, pre-saved thumbnail ready to be displayed for the bundle
  • Display all of the parts of the bundle individually
  • Find the UserOutfit entry in Bundle items and get the outfit thumbnail from there

What I’m proposing is:
AssetService:GetBundleThumbnailAsync( number bundleId)
and that will return an image URL that we can use in our game.

I’d like this. I still can’t figure out how to insert bundles into studio so anything improving them would be awesome.

Do you want to insert their parts, or as a whole package with an NPC?

Yeah, I wanted packages. Couldn’t seem to figure that out.
