Accesing to Remote config from Build

Hi,

I'm trying to use RemoteConfig from a build, with the intention of creating a Level Editor Tool for the Game Designer, without having to enter to Unity to create and upload new levels.

I managed to change the package in order to use it entirely from a build (outside Unity), but there's just a small detail that's not letting me achieve my goal, that is the "CloudProjectSettings.accessToken", is a UnityEditor namespace and is needed to make the Authorization in the UnityWebRequest.

Is there a way that I could get this CloudProjectSettings from outside UnityEditor?

Thank you in advance for your answer,

Franco.

 

Hi Jeff!

Thank you for your answer. I think the code would be a bit too much to post here because I edit multiple scripts of the package, basically what I did was take the entire package and moved it into the project files, so I could edit it. Add an #if UNITY_EDITOR in all the lines that were related to the windows editor within Unity, and leave the lines related to the logic itself of RemoteConfig, so I could call this logic from a build.

I had to change minor things that were using the UnityEditor namespace. For example, it was taking the reference of the RemoteConfigDataStoreAsset scriptable object with

Code (CSharp):

1.  AssetDatabase.LoadAssetAtPath(formattedPath, typeof(RemoteConfigDataStore)) as RemoteConfigDataStore

And instead of that, I'm using Resources.Load.

Another example could be that was using EditorApplication.update, and instead of that I'm using a Monobehaviour Update callback.

The things is, the only line that I couldn't replace it was in the RemoteConfigWebApiClient script, in the method:

Code (CSharp):

1.         private static UnityWebRequest Authorize(UnityWebRequest request)
2.         {
3.             request.SetRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
4.             request.SetRequestHeader("User-Agent", "Unity Editor " + Application.unityVersion + " RC " +  RemoteConfigEditorEnvConf.pluginVersion);
5.             request.SetRequestHeader("Authorization", string.Format("Bearer {0}", CloudProjectSettings.accessToken));
6.             CloudProjectSettings.RefreshAccessToken((accessTokenRefreshed) => { });
7.             return request;
8.         }
9.  

In particular CloudProjectSettings.accessToken is a string that seems that can only be obtained by UnityEditor scripts. A hack that I tried was copying the value "by hand" of it, like:

Code (CSharp):

1.     public const string CloudProjectSettingsAccessToken = "PL_qLXfEwy-8Xm7WaOQPlfMHBRemPtmlABT-LoedewA004f";

And everything works well on a build, but it changes on time, so it only lasts for a while. I'm not exactly sure when changes, so I'd have to enter Unity anyway to get its value. Which is not ideal with my goal of using RemoteConfig from a build (push data to the cloud, from the build).

That's why I concluded in asking if there was a way to get the value of CloudProjectSettings.accessToken without using the UnityEditor namespace.

The error in particular that I'm having after the accessToken expires is:

"Failed to push remote config: HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden. Error message:
{"message":"The supplied authentication is not authorized to access this resource","code":403}
UnityEngine.Debug:LogWarning(Object)"

Which makes sense since the accessToken expired.

Hopefully, this gives you more context to my question!
