I am trying to enable data store service, and it won’t work. I’ve enabled studio access to API services and saved it, and It still won’t work. Is this just a bug?
Sorry if this is the wrong category, but this was related to scripting so I put it here.
Go into your game’s settings and enable the thing that says ‘Allow API Services’
I’ve noticed in the past that when there is not Disconnected message when you stop testing, it won’t save your data (this only happens in studio when you save data when player leaves)
The most accurate way of testing is always going to be Roblox itself
There is a article to help with data store troubleshooting here:
He clearly states in the post:
Sorry if this comes off rude, just make sure to read posts before replying.
@62penguins, do you have any warnings or errors in the output? Sometimes a warning can give the solution 
whoops, lol
@62penguins Can you show us the script you are using to save data? Also, are there any warnings/errors in the output?
There are no errors in the output. This might just be a misconception on my part. Does DataStoreService show up in the explorer if you enable it? If not, then how do you create data stores. If it does show up, then this isn’t a misconception.
Have you tried to test in roblox it self?
Are you using local script or script?
That doesn’t matter. What I want to do is create a data store, and I can’t do that if I don’t have data stores enabled.
I already did. I followed the instructions, and it won’t work.
I’m sorry. I thought you had to manually create data stores, but I now know you create them through scripts. Thank you for the help.
You really should credit @AdelineTWW with the solution so when someone reads this thread looking for the answer it shows adeline’s reply as the solution and they can read up on data stores like you did.
