Hi, I am slightly new to this module and just wanted to ask if using a module with a ton of public functions like GiveCash or GiveItem would be a good idea or if it would be better to handle data in their respective scripts.
I ran into a problem. After publishing the game, i tried 2 accounts to join a server. then I have 1 account rejoin the same server. the data of that account is lost in the same server.
when I have 2 account quit that server, and have lost data account join a different server, data is back again. does anyone know what bug is this
Edit: I fixed it was my code that make profile take infinite loop and never release
I honestly wouldn’t usually do this, but since this post keeps getting at the top of the page, why not?
For those who are perhaps looking for an alternative, maybe check out DocumentService.
ProfileService hasn’t been updated (or at least, seems like it) for a long while.
Just finished a quick ProfileService rewrite 
The project name is “ProfileStore” which represents the top class of this module.
Majority of changes involve code and comment cleanup, variable name cleanup, an upgrade to the GlobalUpdates feature and auto-complete support.
It will be backwards compatible with the original internal DataStore schema ProfileService has been using, but the method names will be different and “MetaTags” will be removed in favor of a new property “Profile.LastSavedData”.
There also exists a rewritten version of ReplicaService that’s slightly faster and also has cleaner method names.
If there’s enough interest from the community and motivation from my side I might make an open source release of these modules with full documentation

how can i migrate my data to profile service? i’ve been using the traditional datastore and experiencing data loss
Definitely interested in the ReplicaService rewrite, even without documentation
I’m having an issue.
I’m using TeleportAsync to attempt to reconnect afk players prior to Roblox’s disconnect. I have my script set to release the players data, then I use ListenToHopReady as well as a small delay prior to teleporting. I’ve verified that :IsActive() is being set to false. When the player is rejoined to the same server, no problem. However, if the player is put into a different server LoadProfileAsync is returning nil indicating two servers attempting to access the profile. In the case that LoadProfileAsync returns nil, I have it set to reconnect players through TeleportAsync which seems to work fine.
What might I be doing wrong? Ideally I want to avoid this double teleport
ProfileService is no-longer supported or being updated, but I would like to know if anyone else has experienced this same problem.
Randomly last night starting around 7:30 PM 3 thousand errors over a period of 6 hours occurred relating to profile service.
I have not seen this error occur on any of my other experiences so it’s pretty bizarre. Thanks!
I’m also getting occasional errors loading data upon joining a place after a teleport
