Yes, you can save strings using data stores. You can not save instances and mixed list tables.

Example:

local mixedListTable = {
    [1] = 3 -- The key is a number
    [2] = "A string"
    ["A string"] = 5 -- The key is a string
    [4] = "Another string"
}

-- Because it has a key that is a string and another that is a number, you will get the error 'keys must be strings'

So will {Player_ID=839839,Chat='wdidjiw'} work? MessorAdmin 598 — 10y

Yes, because it is not a mixed-list table but rather a map-style table BlackJPI 2658 — 10y

Just make sure you set the key properly { [Player_ID] = 839839, [Chat] = 'wdidjiw'} BlackJPI 2658 — 10y
