Hi guys, there's something i do not get about the editor. I have no problem at the starting area (Defining my PlaceId, Datastore name etc) But I'm quite confuse with the "key" parameter after you've connected. I've gotten a simple datastore service to work, in order to experiment using this plugin here's the code:

ServerScript

Ds = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("DsName")   
PlayerStats = game:GetService("ServerStorage"):WaitForChild("PlayerStats")

--Creating a leaderboard--
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
	local playerfolder = Instance.new("Folder",player)      
	playerfolder.Name = "leaderstats"						 
	
	local point = Instance.new("IntValue", playerfolder)
	point.Name = "points"
	point.Value = Ds:GetAsync(player.UserId) or 0             
	
	point.Changed:connect(function()                          
		Ds:SetAsync(player.UserId, point.Value)               
	end)
end)

As you can see it's just a simple leaderstats code. I have a part inside my workspace that awards me with points if I touched it. So basically what i want to do is to access the plugin to view my "points" inside the leaderstats. How would I go about doing so? I was typing leaderstats and points inside the plugin but it doesn't seem to be right. (Data persistence did worked for my game.)

It's their UserId. Also, please look on the wiki what you are putting in the parameters.

I've looked at his tutorial but it doesn't seem to be the userid. He's typing in things like points and leaderstats: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AA_fbfCXv2k (Look @ 2:50). I know that usually we set a key variable to store the UserId but doesn't seem to be the case for this.
