I’m currently attempting to script a badge-giver that gives a badge when you click a part. How would I go about achieving this? I’ve tried the developer site thing with the badges but cant seem to figure it out.
Any help?

Add a ClickDetector inside your part
-
Add a Script and put this in it
local BadgeID = 123456789 -- type the badge id here
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function()
local BadgeService = game:GetService("BadgeService")
BadgeService:AwardBadge(Player.UserId, BadgeID)
end)
end)

Little tip, the first parameter which is inherited by the mouse click event is the player who clicked it so instead of doing that you could just do
local BadgeID = 123456789 -- type the badge id here
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(Player)
local BadgeService = game:GetService("BadgeService")
BadgeService:AwardBadge(Player.UserId, BadgeID)
end)

I am honestly not familiar with the badge service api i just know that you can get the player who clicked it with that. Try seeing if the badge is activated as i heard you have to pay for it now
Yeah Ive paid for the badge, this is very odd. You can find almost 0 badge tutorials with click detectors, which really sucks.
oh! you put the mouseclick function inside your onClicked function
just remove the script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(Player) and the end) and youll be good
Oh I just looked on the wiki I think we found the problem
" * The player must not already have the badge (note that a player may delete an awarded badge from their profile and be awarded the badge again)."
Try running this in the console
game:GetService(“BadgeService”):UserHasBadgeAsync(451731998, 2124711166)
Now the “player.UserId” has a red line under it, error is W001: Unknown global “Player”
add a player parameter inside ur onclicked function so like
local function onClicked(Player) would work
You should try and figure out how to do this on your own before posting on the developer forum. This isn’t a script request site. We’re willing to help, we just want to see some code so we know you tried.
With that said, I recently was doing some work with badges and I have some code laying here. After I made some adjustments, I think this is what you’re looking for:
-- // In the part that you have to click. The click detector should also be in this part.
--------------------------
-- [[ Varible Define ]] --
--------------------------
-- // Services
local BadgeService = game:GetService("BadgeService")
local PlayerService = game:GetService("Players")
-- // Objects
local buttonPart = script.Parent
local clickDetector = buttonPart:FindFirstChildOfClass("ClickDetector")
-- // Numbers
local badgeID = 000 -- // Put the badge ID here
-- // Arrays
local badgePossession = {
clickDetectorBadge = {},
}
---------------------------
-- [[ Function Define ]] --
---------------------------
local function AwardBadge(Plr, badgeId, stringIndex) -- // AwardBadge(Zyrun, the desired badge ID, the name of the badge in badgePossession)
local stringUserId = tostring(Plr.UserId)
local hasBadge = false
if (badgePossession[stringIndex][stringUserId] ~= nil) then -- // If the cache says that the player has the badge
hasBadge = badgePossession[stringIndex][stringUserId]
else -- // If we don't have data on the player yet
local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
hasBadge = BadgeService:UserHasBadgeAsync(Plr.UserId, badgeId)
end)
if (not success) then
warn("Error while checking if player has " .. stringIndex .. " badge: " .. errorMessage)
return nil
end
badgePossession[stringIndex][stringUserId] = hasBadge -- // Add the player to the cache, even if they don't have the badge
end
if (hasBadge) then
return nil
end
local success, badgeInfo = pcall(function()
return BadgeService:GetBadgeInfoAsync(badgeId)
end)
if (success) and (badgeInfo.IsEnabled) then
local awarded, errorMessage = pcall(function()
BadgeService:AwardBadge(Plr.UserId, badgeId)
end)
if (not awarded) then
warn("Error while awarding " .. stringIndex .. " badge: " .. errorMessage)
else
badgePossession[stringIndex][stringUserId] = true
end
end
end
local function PlayerLeaving(Plr) -- // So that players can still function if they get the badge in a different server
local stringUserId = tostring(Plr.UserId)
for _, tableSet in pairs(badgePossession) do
if (tableSet[stringUserId] ~= true) then
tableSet[stringUserId] = nil
end
end
end
----------------------------
-- [[ Connector Define ]] --
----------------------------
PlayerService.PlayerRemoving:Connect(PlayerLeaving) -- // Player left the game
clickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(playerClicking) -- // Player clicked the click detector in our part
AwardBadge(playerClicking, badgeID, "clickDetectorBadge")
end)
Ive been attempting this for an hour, once I gave up I came here. Sorry if I sound hostile, but I managed to figure it out with their help.

I’m glad you were able to get a solution.
You should mark whoever posted the solution to your question as the solution so others know that you have found your answer and no longer need help.
Good luck in your game development!
