Im using a Table to store Players Session Data under a ModuleScript.
Right now im not able to try out anything so ill get back to you when i can.
OK.

This text will be hidden
pfr.Str:UpdateAsync(player, “Text”) – How would I delete this?
pfr.Str:DeleteAsync(player) – How would I delete this?
You can delete an entire DataStore’s contents by calling DataStore:RemoveAsync on the key of every entry.
There is no way to return a list of DataStores. You need to manually keep track of them.
There is. I have a code snippet that will loop through all keys in a data store and delete them:
function clearData(datastore)
local listSuccess, pages = pcall(function()
return datastore:ListKeysAsync()
end)
if listSuccess then
local keys = {}
local pagenum = 0
while true do
--print(pagenum)
local items = pages:GetCurrentPage()
for key, info in pairs(items) do
table.insert(keys, info.KeyName)
end
if pages.IsFinished then break end
local s,e = pcall(pages.AdvanceToNextPageAsync, pages)
--if not s then warn("Deletion pages stopped, moving on.") break end
if s then
pagenum+=1
else
print("abort!")
break
end
task.wait(1)
end
for _, key in pairs(keys) do
local s, verpages = pcall(function()
--print("Getting versions")
return datastore:ListVersionsAsync(key, nil, nil, DateTime.now().UnixTimestampMillis - 2592000000)
end)
if s then
while true do
local items = verpages:GetCurrentPage()
for dkey, info in pairs(items) do
--local cts = tostring(info.CreatedTime)
--local realCreationTime = tonumber(cts:sub(1, cts:len()-3))
local realCreationTime = info.CreatedTime / 1000
--print("Key:", dkey, "; Version:", info.Version, "; Created:", os.date("%c", realCreationTime), "; Deleted:", info.IsDeleted)
if not info.IsDeleted and realCreationTime < os.time()-2592000 then
print(key, datastore:GetAsync(key))
warn("The key will be deleted.")
datastore:RemoveVersionAsync(key, info.Version)
end
end
if verpages.IsFinished then break end
verpages:AdvanceToNextPageAsync()
end
task.wait(2)
else
--print(verpages)
if verpages:lower():match("later") then
print("Trying again later")
task.wait(15)
end
end
end
else
print(pages)
end
end
I copied this from SSecurity’s source, which is used to clear user deletion requests automatically in the background after 30 days.
Please note that it should delete the version history of the key as well, so if there is any sensitive information that you want to recover within 30 days it cannot be obtained.
