I want to award a badge to people that have a specific role in my group

[Mochidrift (Mochi)]

1. What do you want to achieve? I want to have a special badge for players who have the “Developer” role in my group.

2. What is the issue? I know how to give badges, no problem. However, I do not know how to check if a player has a role in my group e.g. when a player has the “Developer” role in my group, they get the “Developer” badge. I also don’t know how to check if a user has joined my group

3. What solutions have you tried so far? I’ve looked for solutions on the dev forum and google. Nothing. I may be writing the question wrong, so nothing relevant appears in the search for me. I can do the badge, no problem. I just need to know how to approach getting the player’s information. I need to know how to see, on player joined (does that player have the “Developer” role in my group). If so, I would award the badge. But how do I get this player’s information?

the rank id variable is in the image (0-255)

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local BadgeService = game:GetService("BadgeService")

local GroupId
local BadgeId
local RankId

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	if Player:GetRankInGroup(GroupId) == RankId then
		BadgeService:AwardBadge(Player.UserId, BadgeId)
	end
end)

For fix it you can use something like it

local plrs = game:GetService("Players")
local BadgeService = game:GetService("BadgeService")

plrs.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	if plr:GetRankInGroup(6228345) == RankId then -- first number is the group and the second number is the id of the rank (0-255)
		BadgeService:AwardBadge(plr.UserId, 1) -- badge id
	end
end)

@BirdieI90

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local BadgeService = game:GetService("BadgeService")

local GroupId
local BadgeId
local RankId

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	if Player:GetRankInGroup(GroupId) == RankId then
		BadgeService:AwardBadge(Player.UserId, BadgeId)
	end
end)

Where should I put it? e.g. ServerScriptService and how do I format the script as (Local script or just a normal script?)

[miguelrioja777 (MiguVT)]

You need put it in a Server (normal) script, if it is possible in the ServerScriptService.

If want more info about how to use GetRankInGroup you can see it: Player | Roblox Creator Documentation

its any serverscript or legacy that could be on workspace or ServerScriptService

[miguelrioja777 (MiguVT)]

You can put the script in workspace if want, but the client can saw the script name, and if its disabled or no, for security reasons (for prevent cheaters) i recommend put it on ServerScriptService, but decompile server script is impossible, and you can put it in workspace if want.
