In Roblox Studio, how do you add a tool to a specific player’s in-game inventory? For example, if I wanted to give a specific player a certain tool (such as a speed or gravity coil) in my game, how could I put that into their inventory?
One simple way is by checking the userId of the player when they join through a server script. And if the player’s userId matches with the userId of the winner, give that player the special item.
There’s also DataStoreService, but unless your game actually requires lots of things to be saved for the player, you’re better off sticking to the first option.

Player A wins the prize, to give the prize only to Player A, check that the player which joined has the same UserId of Player A.
Example:
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
if player.UserId == "Winner's UserId Here" then
-- Give the player the prize
end
end)

Clone the prize from server storage and parent the clone to the player’s backpack.
Also consider using CharacterAdded after PlayerAdded function to ensure the player has been fully loaded.
Here, I’ve done it before and it’s relatively easy, make a server script, make a table of user ids you want with this tool, when a player joins use table.find to check if they have the user id, if they do clone the tool to the players backpack.
The player’s Backpack is the place where all the tools are stored.
So, to give the player a tool, you have to make a clone of the tool and parent it to player.Backpack. And they’ll receive the tool, done

local Player = "player" ------player here
local item = "item" -----here item you want give
local backpack = Player.Backpack
---- Clone item script ----
local giveitem = item:c()
giveitem.Parent = backpack
this script will clone item to player inventory /(backpack)
You see, your code won’t work because it needs to include the location of the item and it just puts in the player’s username. Here is a revised version of your code:
local Player ={"Stickpuppet"} --You can put multiple Roblox usernames here if you want.
local item = game.ServerStorage:FindFirstChild("ItemName") --Item's name, also change location if necessary
local giveGift = item:Clone().Parent = game.Players:FindFirstChild(Player).Backpack --I am unsure if the parent part works 100%
I don’t have access to Roblox studio at the moment to test it so let me know if I did anything wrong.
did you forget to add player.Name like this
game.Players:FindFirstChild(Player.Name).Backpack
The backpack is already created by roblox.
