Content & Configuration Reads

  • Article

Content & Configuration files include the following items: entity files, actions, rules, scheduled tasks, matchmaking, push notifications, emails, and title news. Content & Configuration files are a set of key/value pairs that are primarily used to manage configuration for your game remotely.

The following APIs cause the Content & Configuration reads meter to increment.

Admin APIs

  • GetContentUploadUrl Retrieves the pre-signed URL for uploading a content file. A subsequent HTTP PUT to the returned URL uploads the content. Also, please be aware that the Content service is specifically PlayFab's CDN offering, for which standard CDN rates apply

  • GetTitleNews Retrieves the title news feed, as configured in the developer portal.

  • GetContentDownloadUrl This API retrieves a pre-signed URL for accessing a content file for the title. A subsequent HTTP GET to the returned URL will attempt to download the content.
