A progressive reward system allows you to reward players for logging in over consecutive days with progressive item grants. This example uses a three-tier reward table providing different items for 2, 5, 7 day log-in streaks. Cloud-Script logic acts as the authoritative server and performs the grant directly into the player's inventory.

• A PlayFab account
• A PlayFab title

At least one of the following:

• To run the Unity sample, an installed copy of the Unity Editor. To install Unity for personal use via Unity Hub, or Unity+ for professional use, see Download Unity.
• A web server to run the Javascript sample.

1. The client calls an authentication method to obtain a session ticket. This is required to make Client API Calls.

2. After logging in, the client calls the PlayFab SDK method ExecuteCloudScript to execute a CloudScript method called CheckIn.

3. CheckIn performs the following:

   1. Calls the CloudScript method CheckInTracker to retrieve the current players ReadOnlyData.
      • If this is the first login, create a new record.
   2. Verifies that the player is eligible for a reward:
      • Must have logged in to a streak > 1
      • Must have been > 24 hrs since last grant
      • Must have been < 48 hours after the last grant (otherwise the streak will have been broken)
   3. Increments the next grant window.
   4. Write changes back to ReadOnlyPlayerData (CheckInTracker).
   5. Read the ProgressiveRewardTable key from TitleData.
   6. Look up the reward corresponding to the player's login streak.
   7. Grants the item to the player.
   8. Returns the details to the client.

Testing Level 2 and 3 rewards requires:

• Either waiting the specified login period.
• or using the Admin API to directly set the Player's data to specific points prior to check-in.

Before you begin, locate the Catalog.json, TitleData.json, and CloudScript.js files. If you have downloaded the repo locally, the JSON files are located in the \Recipes\ProgressiveRewards\PlayFab-JSON folder. The CloudScript.js file is located in the \Recipes\ProgressiveRewards\ folder.

1. Log in to Game Manager.

2. Select your title.

3. In left navigation pane, select Economy, then select the Currency tab.

4. Select New Currency. Enter the following values to create a Virtual Currency:

   Property	Value	Detail
   Code	GM	Abbreviation for our VC
   Name	Gems	Name of our VC
   Initial Deposit	5	How many each player gets with a new account

5. Select Save Currency.

6. Select the Catalog tab, the select Upload JSON.

7. Select the Catalog.json file, then select Upload File.

8. In left navigation pane, select Content.

9. In the Title Data window, under Title Data select Upload JSON.

10. Select the TitleData.json file, the select Upload.

11. In left navigation pane, select Automation, then select Revisions.

12. Select Upload New Revision, select the CloudScript.js file and then select Save as revision.

Download the PlayFlab Unity 3D SDK from GitHub.

1. Open a new or existing project.
2. Locate locate the PlayFlab Unity 3D SDK and import it into your Project.
3. Locate the ProgressiveRewardsRecipe.unitypackage file and import it into your project. If you have downloaded the repo locally, it is located in the \Recipes\ProgressiveRewards\Example-Unity3d\ folder. Other wise you can download it from the PlayFab-Samples GitHub repo.
4. In the Project window, open Assets > PlayFab Recipes > ProgressiveRewards > Scenes and add the ProgressiveReward scene to your Hierarchy.
5. In the Hierarchy windows, then select the Main Camera under the ProgressiveRewards scene.
6. In the Inspector window, in the Progressive Rewards script component, set Play Fab Title Id to the Title ID for your PlayFab title.
7. Run the scene. Call-by-call status updates are displayed in the console.

1. Copy the Example-JavaScript folder to your web server. If you have downloaded the repo locally, the folder is located at \PlayFab-Samples-master\Recipes\ProgressiveRewards\Example-JavaScript.
2. In your browser, navigate to the index.html page.
3. Enter in your title ID
   • This example automatically generates a GUID on login. You can instead use and ID for any user that you choose.
   • After logging in, the ID is saved into your browser's localstorage
4. Open your browser's developer console to see call-by-call status updates.
