How would I check if user is online or not or even playing a game?

Question:

I’ve seen games where they can see if a certain user is offline, online, or playing a game. Also see what game their playing. How would I achieve this? Thankyou!

I think this uses some API function from ROBLOX, not sure what it is but i think you can look it up, i’m also not sure if it uses https service.

I remember the existence of an api on roblox to know when someone is connected and playing or not playing, I am using it in my discord bot but I no longer remember the API link

I found !

You need to use httpService (get request) but I think roblox is blocking their own server form making request on ther api so you well need a proxy
