How can I return the number of badges someone has?

[v0fty (abd)]

So I want to make a overhead gui which displays the amount of badges someone has and I’m not sure how to do it. If someone could help me out I’d really appreciate it.

This might be of use to you:

Is there a way to count someone's badges?

Here’s an implementation I just wrote which achieves this. local http = game:GetService("HttpService") local get = http.GetAsync local jsonDecode = http.JSONDecode local proxyUrl = "roproxy.com" local baseUrl = "https://badges."..proxyUrl.."/v1/users/%d/badges?limit=100&sortOrder=Asc&cursor=%s" local maxTries = 5 local function getUsersBadgeCountRecursive(userId, badgeCount, cursor, cache) badgeCount = badgeCount or 0 cursor = cursor or "" cache = cache or {} if cache[cursor] then cache[c…

You may not want to use proxies though. See this:

PSA: Stop using Roblox proxies! (roproxy, rprxy.xyz, rprxy)

For security reasons, Roblox blocks the use of HttpService to send requests to roblox.com URLs. To get around this, many developers have created and used “proxy websites” that act as an alternative to sending requests to roblox.com. The majority of developers choose not to host and/or write their own proxy, so many of them choose to use proxies that other people host, like rprxy.xyz. Stop doing this!! Why it’s a bad idea Single point of failure All of your tool’s traffic relies on this on…

Instead, you could do something like this:

local badges = {} --Your games badge ids go here with commas and stuff
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer -- You would change this to whatever works with your script.
local badgeserv = game:GetService("BadgeService")
local number = {}

for i,v in badges do
	if badgeserv:UserHasBadgeAsync(player.UserId,v) then
		number[1] = number[1]+1
	end
end

print(number[1])

If you were asking about just all the badges owned in general, I am not sure why you would, because they could just create a game and award themselves a few badges. However, you would probably have to use proxies like @Katrist mentioned.

Instead, you could do something like this:

I’m fairly sure they are talking about every badge they have though, if they just need some specific badges then yea your solution works.

How could i display every badge they own and not a list of badges
