Hello! I’ve come across a big rock in my head. I am trying to make a group ranking system, so whenever you click rank a player to a rank in the group, they will become the rank in the group. Would I be-able to use apis on there own using HTTPService, or would I need a cookie. (So if the player ranking another player has permissions to rank in the group, would the api work or would it need a cookie?)

Greetings! The answer to your question is that you would require a cookie as the API’s will require a user to rank the target to the rank you want to rank them to.
Can you do all of this in stuido?

So I just wrote and tested this & it works.

It’s currently set up to change roles in the game owner’s primary group (this can be changed), there are two ways in which it works. Firstly, you can type :change {PlayerNameHere} {GroupRankHere} if the player is in the server (you can abbreviate the player’s name too). Secondly, if the player is not in the server you can type :change {PlayerIdHere} {GroupRankHere}, the player’s ID must be exact.

Jeez. Didn’t know what I was going up against.
Thank you. 
Does that still work?What permissions this bot would have in group?
this request not longer possible as i found out.There no ways anymore to do smth like so unless you host it in your own pc\server
