How do I get UniverseId from PlaceId? (ROBLOX API)

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hello,

Recently, I have been struggling to get a game’s UniverseID from PlaceID via HttpService.

At first, I have tried two methods:

  1. Using MarketplaceService:GetProductInfo() but the problem is that there is no UniverseID included in the information received

  2. Using :arrow_down: and again the problem is that this API requires an Authenticated User to work therefore I get this error: HTTP 401 (Unauthorized)

 HttpService:GetAsync("https://games.rprxy.xyz/v1/games/multiget-place-details?placeIds="..placeId

Afterwards, I decided to look in the DevForum for answers and I found two posts which didn’t provide any definitive answers

and

So, now I am making a Post regarding about this and any Help would be useful, Thanks. :smiley:

Why do you need the UniverseId?

New correct URL is here:

https://api.roblox.com/universes/get-universe-containing-place?placeid=[PLACEID]

This will get you a table with just the universe Id, which you just have to do Data.UniverseId to get. You do not need to be signed in to use this API I don’t believe, which is what multiget-place-details requires you to do.

game.GameId stores the current place’s universe ID.

Trust check failed it says, are you sure it works?

Yes, I am very sure it works. I’m using it on a project of mine and it’s still functional so ¯\(ツ)/¯

(https://api.roblox.com/universes/get-universe-containing-place?placeid=)
or through the studio
(UniverseID code - Roblox)

That script just changes a value to game.GameId

Try looking at the new apis, I believe they are included in the official docs.

The simple solution is game.GameId

You need the universe ID for audios. Reason why is that Roblox audios are not public anymore. What
essentially means is that the original owners of audio files can still use those audios in their games, but other developers who used to be able to access each other’s audios freely will be forbidden from doing so anymore. This effectively puts an end to the “Creator Marketplace” dynamic of the platform.
