It’s a simple method:

tonumber(string)

However, I think you can still do the whole ID on sounds:
rbxassetid://stringId

Warning: You cannot convert strings with other characters than numbers, it will return nil.

That’s strange, try using method B:

"rbxassetid://" .. input

Input is the text added into the TextBox.

Wait a second, I think I know the issue here:

  • You are trying to read player input from server - you cannot see what the player has changed on the box. Try using remotes to pass the value to the server, specifically a RemoteFunction.
