How does Datastore V2 (Metadata) works?

Asked by 2 years ago

So I was asking for a code review on DevForum for one of my datastore codes if it could prevent data losses, and someone introduced me to Datastore V2 (or Metadata). I went to the DevForum to find information, but I didn’t really find anything that I could use in DevForum, so I went to DevHub and most of the stuff in DevHub didn’t come off clear enough to me. I tried searching on ScriptingHelper, YT, etc. but still haven’t found anything useful.

One thing I’m especially confused about Metadata is the GDPR Tracking/Removal on the SetAsync 3rd argument, table of userId’s. I’m really confused as to how this could contribute to privacy at all, and I need someone to explain it to me, how does it work exactly?

Thank you for your time!

I'm not that well versed with Datastore2 or meta data, or really anything other than normal roblox datastores, however It's worth taking a look at ProfileService, which is similar as it helps lower the chance of dataloss, info can be found here: https://devforum.roblox.com/t/save-your-player-data-with-profileservice-datastore-module/667805 Protogen_Dev 268 — 2y
