How to tell if a player has redeemed a star code

Hi all,

Apologies if this is the wrong post section for this question. Please let me know if this is the case and I will re-upload the post somewhere else.

I am looking to create a system in a game where, if a user redeems a Youtuber’s Star Code when purchasing ROBUX, they get a special ability in a game. My only question is, is there any way to do this given ROBLOX’s limitations? I couldn’t find anything in the API, but I wanted to see if anyone else has done anything like this. Please point me in the right direction if this is the case.

Thanks in advance.

As far as I know, there is currently no way to check if a player has redeemed a star code but I will do more research on this.

Im pretty sure roblox doesnt even store this data, so theres no way to figure out if a user has used a star code without asking them, which will not be honest results.

There is NO way to do this as of right now. Would you maybe mean an In-Game “star code”, where if they put in a Youtubers star code (that you added to the list of working codes), then it will give them an In-Game power-up? (Like a twitter code UI)

I’d ask a roblox engineer for more info on the situation and how the data is stored, if at all. If the StarCode data is saved, I doubt accessing it will not violate any privacy rules. I say this because some players may want to keep the YouTuber they support to themselves. If you got that data, you’d be gaining their personal information without their consent. In short, I wouldn’t try doing this even if there is a solution. I’m sure there could be a replacement for this kind of system.

Thanks everyone, looks like this isn’t possible as of right now. I’ll close the thread.
