Thanks Paul, I appreciate the quick response.

That really is unfortunate. I understand that making data structures for each and every response is a lot of work for your team but that is work that each and every user of BrainCloud is going to have to do themselves. That's a big ask when considering, as a new user, I'm not even sure which requests I'm going to be making yet and just trying things out is going to be a headache. I'll have to rethink this.

I'm able to get GlobalEntities using:

_bc.GlobalEntityService.ReadEntity(entityId, successCallback, failureCallback);

But only when using the "Entity ID" (ie long string of letters and numbers). When I use the "Entity Indexed ID" ("mainsettings" in this case), the response is:

{"packetId":1,"responses":[{"status_message":"Processing exception (message): Missing record - global entity not found","reason_code":40345,"status":202}]}

So, is the indexed ID not used for that? Is it only used for GetListByIndexedId? In that case I suppose it is not unique?

My overarching question is related to the responses retrieved using any of these sorts of methods.
How do I parse these json objects once I receive them? I've seen

using BrainCloud.JSONHelper;

and

using BrainCloud.JsonFx.Json;

And some other stuff like BCEntity.ReadFromJson and BCEntityFactory. Should I be able to have those responses be converted into classes and access any of the data like mainSettingsGlobalEntity.data, mainSettingsGlobalEntity.version, etc?

Thanks
