Error: Function Not Enabled, Wiki Doesn't Mention It?

Hello everyone!

I am going to keep this short and brief, as I expect this shouldn’t be too hard to answer. I am trying to use:

or

I have tried using both of them but they throw the errors:
CreateHumanoidModelFromUserId is not yet enabled
GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId is not yet enabled
There are numerous articles and pages that reference both of these functions but none of them mention that these functions aren’t enabled. I am wondering why this might be and if I am doing something wrong.

Thanks for the help!

Edit: I linked the incorrect function. It is fixed now. Both are functions to get the character of a player with their userId.

Do you have code that you could show me of you using these?

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local character = Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId(1735621911)

It doesn’t work every time. I am unsure if I should publish a topic about this inaccuracy in the wiki.

That is weird, I don’t think these are available to use even though the wiki states it.

That’s what I think too. I was wondering if other people could use them. I tried restarting studio and stuff and it looks like there aren’t any updates.

I would post this in one of the platform feedback sections.

Looks like I can’t post the issue in the correct section.

As of right now, Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId() is functional and you can use it in events such as:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local humDesc = Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId(1)  --Why not test it with Roblox?

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
		repeat wait() until char:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
		local hum = char:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
		hum:ApplyDescription(humDesc) --This function will apply the description from Roblox to the character
	end)
end)

However, Players:CreateHumanoidModelFromUserId() is still a work in progress and hasn’t been released yet which is why it is disabled.
