Help With returning array through remote function

[VideoLegend005 (Legend)]

I’m learning about remote functions to create an inventory system that gets a list of pets owned by the player and returns it into a local script for the inventory GUI to use.

The list prints correctly but when the list is returned through the remote function it’s nil

Server side: (Prints the array correctly)

local function getdata(plr)
	local array = {}
	local petlist = game.ServerStorage.PlayerData:FindFirstChild(plr.UserId):WaitForChild("Pets"):GetChildren()
	for i, v in pairs(petlist) do
		table.insert(array,v)
	end
	print(array)
	return array
end

datagrabber.OnServerInvoke = function(plr)
	return getdata(plr)
end

Client Side: (Prints array as {} )

local function getpetdata(player)
	local data = datagrabber:InvokeServer(player)
	print(data)
	return data
end
while true do
	getpetdata(LocalPlayer)
	wait(1)
end

	local petlist = game.ServerStorage.PlayerData:FindFirstChild(plr.UserId):WaitForChild("Pets"):GetChildren()
	for i, v in pairs(petlist) do
		table.insert(array,v)

Looks like you are putting server side instances which do not replicate to the client. Try doing v.Name instead into the array.
