  Hi, Unfortunately the answer is no on that one. (For what it's worth, I'm not sure how we'd make that one work - since brainCloud allows you to link products across AppStores - not sure how we'd be able to establish those relationships in an import). The good news is that brainCloud allows you to set up one list of products, with multiple price points, across all stores. And then, if you want to change prices (put things on sale, etc) - it's just a couple of quick clicks to do that across all the stores (the new prices would be instantly active). So we recommend that devs initially configure both a "regular" and a "sale" price for all items. There's definitely a bit of pain getting it initially configured - but it's well worth it in the long run. Not the answer you were hoping for - but I hope it helps! Paul.

  I like the new forums. It was something I always felt was lacking and with the quick response time, they have already proven to be very useful. Hopefully this helps connect developers using brainCloud together as well as with the brainCloud team.

  Additionally! Using a Pre-Hook, to the Post Score Cloud Code Script, to validate incoming data. Doing the actual JoinTournament / PostTournament Score via Cloud Code Script, once again verifying data. Lastly, validating the results of the Cloud Code Script via Post-Hook, allows developer's to confirm that the incoming data results in the expected outgoing data. If at any point validation fails, tag the user as a Cheater! If users are going through enough trouble to try and cheat, they must enjoy the apps experience. Instead of blocking the Cheater from using the app, ensure all Cheaters are playing against each other, via a Cheater leaderboards or any other means. This way the apps experience to Cheaters is unchanged, and only cheating against cheaters, but most importantly the rest of the user base does not get negatively impacted via a few rare users. Any other ideas? Interesting Applications for Cheaters?

  If your app uses Global Entities, don't forget to Export/Import the required entities from the Dev->Staging->Live apps. You can export all, or some via the Bulk Actions Menu within the Monitoring/Global Monitoring/ Global Entities page. More about Global Entity File Export Formats are here, https://getbraincloud.com/apidocs/api-modules/global-entity-file-formats/ Hope this helps!
