Question

How would I grab the asset ID of a decal through a script? I’ve looked through the API Roblox Site, however I couldn’t find a solution.

Example ID

Marketplace Link: nWoSouledOut2 - Roblox
Asset Link: http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=5322863485

Script

local function Play()
	if script.Parent.Power.Value == true then
		if game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("Equipment") then
			repeat
				game.Workspace.Equipment.Screens[script.Name].Image = "rbxassetid://"..script.IDValue.Value
				wait(0.1)
			until script.Parent.Power.Value == false
		else
			repeat
				game.Workspace[script.Name].Decal.Texture = "rbxassetid://"..script.IDValue.Value
				wait(0.1)
			until script.Parent.Power.Value == false	
		end
	end
end

repeat
	Play()
	wait(0.1)
until script.Disabled == true

Thank you for any help you can give me.

You can try something like

local image = "https://www.roblox.com/library/5541301688/Images-RobloxScreenShot20200811-163250287"

local splitstring = string.split(image, "/")

print(splitstring[5])

local Product = "https://www.roblox.com/library/5322863519/nWoSouledOut2"

local splitstringProduct = string.split(Product, "/")

print(splitstringProduct[5])

I tried it in studios it worked

This is what the asset ID would be for the decal I posted in my post, your simply printing the string that goes to the marketplace ID. I need the Asset ID, not the marketplace ID.

Thank you for trying though.

Two years old; this is nuts to think about. Well I finally made an asset loader module so I can easily explain this.

Answer

To do what I was looking for here; you need to load the asset into your game via; InsertService and the Marketplace Service.

After this, you can change your decals ID to match the one that was inserted; you can then delete the inserted decal.
