I noticed one day that the pants of one of my friend’s avatars doesn’t appear in the Currently Wearing list on their profile, but the pants are still visible on the avatar on the website, in-game, and in Studio. Also, the pants’ catalog ID still appears in HumanoidDescriptions and avatar API responses. How on earth can a catalog item achieve such a bizarre state?
Catalog ID: 7251677640
Asset ID: 7251677632
Here’s all the info I’ve gathered so far:
-
The asset does not appear on the asset list on the player’s profile.
-
The asset’s catalog ID still appears in HumanoidDescriptions and avatar API responses.
-
Attempting to do
MarketplaceService:GetProductInfo()with the catalog ID errors with HTTP 400, but doing it with the asset ID succeeds, returning data that includes the ID of a deactivated (according to the user’s bio) account. The account does not show up on Rolimons.
– The asset does not appear in Catalog Avatar Creator when viewing outfits, but still appears on outfits
– https://create.roblox.com/store/asset/7251677632 (asset ID) works. Replacing the asset ID with any catalog ID leads to nothing. -
Attempting to get asset info with API endpoint
catalog.roblox.com/v1/catalog/items/detailswith the catalog ID returns an emptydataarray. -
Attempting to go to the asset’s catalog page directly with its catalog ID temporarily directs to
https://www.roblox.com/catalog/7251677640/asset7251677640, then back to the main marketplace page as if the item was deleted.
– This appears to be inconsistent with other items uploaded by now-deleted parties. I can view the catalog pages of said other items without being kicked back to the main marketplace page. -
The asset texture can still be downloaded.
So, the asset ID gives a lot of data, but the catalog ID acts like it’s invalid despite the item still being usable??? None of this adds up to a clear answer, and I can’t find any other instances or mentions of strange catalog items like this. I’d love to hear from anyone who may know more about what’s going on.
