If I use :GetDataStore() and then change it to :GetOrderedDataStore() later on, will the data stay the same?

local dataStoreOptions = Instance.new('DataStoreOptions')
local dataStore = dataStoreService:GetDataStore('dataStore', dataStoreOptions)

local orderedDataStore = dataStoreService:GetOrderedDataStore('dataStore', dataStoreOptions)

local success, pages = pcall(function()
	return dataStoreBadges:ListKeysAsync()
end)
-- Get datastore pages

while task.wait() do
	local Items = pages:GetCurrentPage()
		
	for _, Data in ipairs(Items) do
		orderedDataStore:SetAsync(Data.KeyName, Data.Money) -- if you want to store the money
	end
		
	if pages.IsFinished then break else pages:AdvanceToNextPageAsync() end
end

And you can convert the UserId to Name using Players:GetNameFromUserIdAsync function.

I apologize, it’s supposed to be dataStore, I copied that script from one of my games.

You can, just change the variables and arguments to the variables you use for the datastores.

Hey, this is kind of late to ask this, but is it possible to run this script in the command bar in studio?

I haven’t tried doing DataStore stuff in the command bar.
