Player Account Authentication

By default, the CloudService will automatically authenticate as a Guest User, unless you disable Auto Login As Guest option in the CoherenceBridge inspector.

If you disable the automatic login, you can handle Player authentication manually through the CloudService.GameServices.AuthService API.

In this example, you can see how you can manually login as a Guest:

using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Coherence.Cloud;
using Coherence.Toolkit;
using UnityEngine;

public class LoginAsGuestExample : MonoBehaviour
{
    public CoherenceBridge bridge;

    private CloudService cloudService;

    async void Start()
    {
        cloudService = bridge.CloudService;

        await Login();

        // At this point, we are ready to fully utilize the Cloud Service
    }

    private async Task Login()
    {
        var authService = cloudService.GameServices.AuthService;

        var result = await authService.LoginAsGuest();
        if (result.LoggedIn)
        {
            Debug.Log($"Logged in as: {result.Username}", this);
        }
        else
        {
            Debug.LogError(result, this);
        }
    }
}

You can also choose to allow your users to create their own Player accounts, you can use the Authentication Service API in a similar fashion to allow for manual authentication:

using Coherence.Cloud;
using Coherence.Toolkit;
using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine;
using Result = Coherence.Runtime.Result;

using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Coherence.Cloud;
using Coherence.Toolkit;
using UnityEngine;

public class LoginAsUserExample : MonoBehaviour
{
    public CoherenceBridge bridge;

    public string username;
    public string password;

    private CloudService cloudService;

    async void Start()
    {
        cloudService = bridge.CloudService;

        await Login();

        // At this point, we are ready to fully utilize the Cloud Service
    }

    private async Task Login()
    {
        var authService = cloudService.GameServices.AuthService;

        var result = await authService.LoginWithPassword(username, password, true);
        if (result.LoggedIn)
        {
            Debug.Log($"Logged in as: {username}", this);
        }
        else
        {
            Debug.LogError(result, this);
        }
    }
}
