For both of your questions, a single call -- GetEligiblePromotions()
will do the work. It will return the values of maxPurchases
and the caller's purchased
, as well as the Unix timestamps for triggeredForUserAt
and 'expiresForUserAt` for automated promotions.

Thank you for sharing this information. It does not have an impact on our server-side validation.

First, it's recommended to use
FindOrCreateLobby
call instead ofCreateLobby
. It’s generally a better approach since it handles both cases — creating a new lobby if one doesn’t exist, or joining an existing one if it does. This gives your players a smoother experience when first trying to get into a lobby.Second, just to clarify the sequence: the
STARTING
event doesn’t mean the lobby itself is starting, it happens after members have already joined and the server launch conditions are met. At that point, brainCloud is spinning up a game server for the lobby. You can find more details in our lobby documentation here -- https://docs.braincloudservers.com/api/capi/lobby/#lobby-eventsBecause of this, your loading spinner should remain active continuously after the
FindOrCreateLobby
call succeeds, since the user’s intent (“joining a lobby”) isn’t complete yet, from the user’s perspective, they’re still “joining a lobby” until they either:Receive
ROOM_READY
→ success, hide the spinner.Receive an error → failure, hide the spinner and show an error.
This way, you avoid the hide → show gap, and the spinner matches the full lifecycle of the join process; it simply stays up until the full lobby join flow is resolved.
So in short: use FindOrCreateLobby, and keep the loading spinner up until you get either
ROOM_READY
or a failure event. -
Hi Kirlos, as you can see from the response's
message
field, there are two elements (id
andname
) underneath, you need to append.id
to specify the first search field forid
, so change the"message.from"
to"messsge.from.id"
should solve this problem. -
You may write a pre-hook cloud code script with your validating logic and integrate it with
[TurnShieldOn()](https://getbraincloud.com/apidocs/apiref/?cloudcode#capi-matchmaking-turnshieldon)
method. -
How about passing the slug as a parameter along with the webhook URL? This will allow your script to parse the parameter and perform actions accordingly.

You can hook the script to brainCloud authentication API and check the
loginCount
from the response, the related doc can be found here.
