I found the exact same question from a post 2 years ago. Hope this helps!
I have solved this myself here is the code:
function getOnlineStatus(username)
local proxy = "https://www.rprxy.xyz"
local id = game.Players:GetUserIdFromNameAsync(username)
local httpService = game:GetService("HttpService")
local user = httpService:GetAsync(proxy .. "/users/" .. id .. "/profile", true)
return (string.find(user, "icon%-game") ~= nil) or (string.find(user, "icon%-online") ~= nil) or (string.find(user, "icon%-studio") ~= nil)
end
returns true if the user is online return false if they are offline
