Follow Developers for bonus

[joshuaThe5th (joshuaThe5th_YT)]

I’ve seen several games award the player when they follow the developers on Roblox, and was wondering how I might do this?

One of the best examples of this is Oaklands by Typical Developers, Screenshots attached

This is pretty complicated and apparently it might be against the ToS too.

If you still want to go ahead, it looks like you will want to use RoProxy. Here’s a post explaining how to:

How to check if player follows me on Roblox?

Hi. I’m making a Roblox game, and I want to add some bonuses for players which following my Roblox account. Is there’s an API to check that without retrieving ALL player’s followers list? Help!

local HttpService = game:GetService("HttpService")

local CreatorId = 108557439 --joshuaThe5th's ID (you)

local function IsPlayerFollowing(PlayerId)
	--check who the player is following
	local Success, Result = pcall(HttpService.GetAsync, HttpService, "https://friends.roproxy.com/v1/users/"..PlayerId.."/followings?limit=100&sortOrder=Asc")
	if Success then
		local Success2, Result2 = pcall(HttpService.JSONDecode, HttpService, Result)
		if Success2 then
			for _, Following in ipairs(Result2.data) do
				if Following.id == CreatorId then
					return true
				end
			end
			return false
		else
			warn(Result2)
		end
	else
		warn(Result)
	end
end

print(IsPlayerFollowing(1112206535)) --mattcarter0311's ID (one of your followers), true
print(IsPlayerFollowing(261)) --Shedletsky's ID (not one of your followers), false

The section that was quoted in the post has long since been removed.

For getting if the player is following, you would need to utilise APIs and proxys (as Forummer’s post shows.)
