How do I properly get rid of the HTTP error when getting name from user ID?
Long story short, I don't want this to pop up:
21:45:04.347 - Players:GetNameFromUserId() failed because HTTP 400 (HTTP/1.1 400 Invalid userId)
Here's what I have in the script:
function dostuff(task)
local name = game:GetService("Players"):GetNameFromUserIdAsync(task)
print(name)
end
I tried pcalling, but that doesn't give me any names:
function dostuff(task)
local good_to_go, name = pcall(function()
game:GetService("Players"):GetNameFromUserIdAsync(task)
end)
if good_to_go then print(name) end
end
I don't know how to get around this. Any help?

function dostuff(task)
local good_to_go, name = pcall(function()
game:GetService("Players"):GetNameFromUserIdAsync(tonumber(task))
end)
if good_to_go then print(name) end
end
Well, there's a numbervalue, and an Intvalue. task is a numbervalue, and userIDs are a intvalue. try using tonumber to solve this problem/
