Greetings,

I am making a system like steam trading where players can trade different items and also chat. I would like to know how I can access an offline’s player database by using player.UserId . Thanks!

If you have their username, you can do Players:GetUserIdFromNameAsync(username) if that errors just do players:GetUser and look for auto complete that looks similar to what I told yiu

If you are trying to access their datastore on studio you can use this module:

but it cost 200 robux

if you want to access the datastore of an offline user on roblox, It’d be the same way you access it when they were online.

Exactly what I was looking for! Works very nicely. Thanks!

And I have a bonus question to the original one, can I use this the same way as a normal online’s player database?

Short on funds at this moment… It isn’t really what I am looking for. @domboss37 answered with what I was looking for so the issue is solved. Thanks anyways!

Yes it’ll work the exact same way, as long as the player is in the database
