How to make a string represent an instance?

You simply have to save the instance properties. It could be done with json or string manipulation, but I prefer with tables. Here is model saving: https://www.roblox.com/library/633336146/Model-Save-Script . Obviously if you only want to save a single instance then it is simpler. Transform the userdata into strings/tables, then store it in a dictionary.

Use the name of the object, and save that?
Just keep the instance in ServerStorage. Now you can save the name and find it with that.
