    I can't find a way to get the total number of leaderboard entries.
    It could be returned as metadata with the original leaderboard entries request if that's easier.

    Cheers

    Hey Brogan,

    What endpoint / API are you using? Client / Get player scores with offset and limit?

    Hey, I'm using the package:
    com.unity.services.leaderboards: 1.0.0

    The leaderboard shows the top ten entries using 
    LeaderboardsService.Instance.GetScoresAsync
    with offset: 0, limit: 10

    We then show the player's score if outside the top ten using 
    LeaderboardsService.Instance.GetPlayerScoreAsync
    which is fine.
    But we also want to show out of total entries. i.e. 15th / 2000 or whatever.
    Unless I've missed something as far as I can see there isn't a quick way of getting total entries without going through every page of the leaderboard which isn't ideal.

    I'm hoping for a method like 
    GetTotalScores()
    or 
    GetMetaData()
    which returns a struct of any metadata for the leaderboard which would be more extensible. Is something like this possible?

    Cheers

    Hey Brogan,

    Asked the team, this is what the pointed me towards:
    """
    So the GetScoresAsync (docs) already returns a total field on the LeaderboardScoresPage return object (docs).
    """
