(Answered) How Do I Create Instances From A Local Script For The Entire Server To See?

Today I tried to create a local script that creates new instances in the workspace for the entire server but unfortunately I don't understand how to communicate after the filtering enabled update and I wasted somewhere in between an hour and a half to 2 hours trying to figure it out using remote functions and events until I scrapped everything except the local script in one of the starter gui's, Here it is:

view source
01script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
02    local MusicFolder = Instance.new("Folder", workspace)
03    local SongId = Instance.new("NumberValue", workspace)
04    local Username = Instance.new("StringValue", workspace)
05    SongId.Value = script.Parent.Parent.TextBox.Text
06    Username.Value = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Name
07    SongId.Parent = MusicFolder
08    Username.Parent = MusicFolder
09    SongId.Name = "SongId"
10    Username.Name = "Username"
11    MusicFolder.Parent = game.Workspace.MusicGenerator
12end)

Could someone please show me how to make the folder and values spawn in the workspace for the entire server and not just for the client?

To bypass filtering enabled, you'll have to use remote events, since the client's changes to the workspace do not replicated. I wasn't sure what the parents of your script were, so excuse the poor variable names in the remote event.

view source
01--Local script
02 
03local remote = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("RemoteEvent") --wait for remote
04 
05script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
06   remote:FireServer(script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Name,script.Parent.Parent.TextBox.Text) --send needed data
07end)
08 
09 
10--Server script
11 
12local RepStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
13local remote = Instance.new("RemoteEvent") --create remote
14remote.Parent = repStorage
