:mirror_ball::dancing_women: September Update

New update has been released with lots of additions and changes. It is a lot to cover, so here is me speedrunning some of the things that were added:

Main Additions

  • Edit menu which lets you edit multi-line strings (can also be used when inserting).
    • Right click and press edit to access it.
  • Move/duplicate key.
    export_and_highlights
  • JSON import/export.
  • Use script editor theme.
  • Pin items in history.
  • Drag and drop to reorder array elements.
  • Use Automatic User Id replacement in DataStore name/scope.
    data_usage
  • Data usage viewer.
  • Tab to switch between TextBoxes.

These are the changes I thought would be helpful to know, but there are many more which you can see here (press the link and scroll up): DataDelve Canary - #34 by pinehappi.

Overall, your experience using this plugin should be much smoother and pleasant now. Thanks to everyone who provided feedback and support!

:angst: I doubt this is bump-worthy, but I visited your donation experience and gave :robux_gold:250.

I haven’t really used DataDelve, only opening it a couple times, but I think it’s a well-made plugin that deserves donations.

Downloaded it, tested it, reviewed your GitHub post. I’m absolutely amazed by your work!

Left you a donation, keep up the good work!
(You should make a paid version on the asset store for people who want to support you!)

Damn dude, this actually looks fire and really useful! I would love to see how the compiler is done.

Great plugin! I tinkered with it a bit and have some UX feedback:

  • Exporting & importing to/from JSON has a clunky workflow. Every time I go to export, the “usage notice” popup comes up instead of immediately prompting me to save the file. Importing from JSON requires me to manually rename the previously exported file, which becomes pretty frustrating if done often. A better approach here would be to export the data as a .lua file with the JSON stored in a comment. The plugin can then allow the lua file to be directly re-imported later, no renaming required. Sleitnick’s plugin does this by storing the information in comments:
-- EXPORTED FROM DATASTORE EDITOR - DO NOT MODIFY

-- Version: 1

-- GameId: 2799591695
-- PlaceId: 7200003285

-- Key: "313"
-- DataStore Name: "Production_PlayerData1_Data"
-- DataStore Scope: "73223877"

-- Data: {"SomeKey":"SomeValue"}
  • Some fields are visually aligned on the X axis, while others are not. This produces some visual clutter that can make the data difficult to quickly parse:

Thank you all for the feedback and support! :face_holding_back_tears: It really made my day.


I like that idea, but at the moment I can’t because my account is not verified.


Thanks for the detailed feedback. It was very helpful and I will try to incorporate it into future releases (although the x-aligned fields will be a little difficult since all elements are rendered in isolation for virtual scrolling).

Great plugin, but is there any way to get all the data in a datastore? like exporting it like how you would export the individual players data.

No, but I’m pretty sure you can export an entire DataStore with this app: OpenCloudTools - Open Source Datastore/MessagingService Tools
