[Locked] Announcement: Codeless IAP for Unity IAP

I noticed that IAPButton now has a Restore option turning it into a restore purchases button. Though I didn't see this mentioned anywhere in the change log. When was this feature added?

 

I recently tried the codeless IAP, however when testing on iOS device i get the following error:
Purchase failed because Purchasing was not initialized correctly.
I created a button in my canvas, attached an IAPButton script to it, and set up the catalog product as according to my itunes connect info.
Google wasn't any help in this case.

 

Hello! My IAP works very strange... IAP is working , but in-game currency sometimes added after purchase and sometimes not. Why can it be?

 

I am kind of confused about the IAP. On certain platforms, you have to go through their store. But if you're not on those platforms, what store do you go through? What is the recommended payment processor for a standalone Windows game?

 

How do you test codeless IAP so the fakestore is always fresh each time game is run?

My purchases remain active after testing a successful purchase but I'd like for the store to let me test purchases each time I hit play.

My product is a non-consumable.

Thanks

UPDATE:
Using the editor, not actual devices.

 

Delete and reinstall the app.

 

hi there, i can t find the iap codeless button, the doc says

1. To add an IAP Button to your scene, in the Unity Editor menu, select Window > Unity IAP > Create IAP Button.
   
   
2. Select the new IAP Button, locate the IAP Button component in the Inspector (see image A, above), and click the AP Catalog…button to open the IAP Catalog window (see image B, below). Alternatively, in the Unity Editor menu, select Window > Unity IAP > IAP Catalog.
   
   but it s not on unity 5.5.2 in my case
   
   do i need to add some extra plug in or do i miss something?
   
   thanks

 

I meant in the editor.

Sorry for my not being clear.

 

Did you import the IAP packages? If you haven't you need to go to services in the editor, find IAP and click on import.

 

aaaah, sorry i didnt realize i needed to import the iap package through the service. silly me. thanks gegagome

 

How are you keeping track of purchased products?

 

I am using FileStream as instructed in this video: https://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/topics/scripting/persistence-saving-and-loading-data

It works really nice and is much secure than UserPreferences on iOS.

 

Doesn't have "Export to csv" function for Google play market

 

It's not really a feature request. I'm wondering what people do for IAP on standalone Windows. I know you can implement a payment integration, but there are a shedload of options once you leave mobile platforms. On iOS, you use Apple. On Android, you use Google. With a UWA, you use Microsoft. What if you just have... a game? Like, what if it's on Linux, and there's no central company to offer a store in the first place?

The feature of being able to integrate whatever platform you want is already there, but what platforms are people successfully integrating, and how much time and effort is needed to integrate them? Can you, say, wrap the PayPal API and get it working in a day or two? Or do you need something PayPal doesn't have? Does it just take more time, because of reasons?

 

Hi,
I created live wallpaper for android in Unity and am trying to use Unity IAP in it. I tried the API, but as it was not working, I tried that codeless approach too just to be sure.

The reason for the Unity API not working here seems to be that it uses the standard way of getting context from unity player activity, but unfortunatelly live wallpapers doesnt have an activity, they run as services.
Why do I think so ? Well I had to deal with the same problem with opening URLs from live wallpaper and now, for the IAP i get this error in logcat:

Code (JavaScript):

1. 03-25 23:35:35.682: I/Unity(1526): AndroidJavaException: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.content.Context android.content.Context.getApplicationContext()' on a null object reference
2.  

I think its quite clean, but feel free to correct me if Im wrong.

My question is:
Can the Unity IAP as it is be somehow used to work on android without activity ?

If not, is there any chance to access the UnityEngine.Purchasing classes so I can modify the method of getting context myself ?

Thanks

 

@ap-unity I try: Window -> Unity IAP -> Create IAP Button
But I still get the error "Purchase failed because Purchasing was not initialized correctly." Both on ios and android device. It works fine in editor.
Do I need to publish my game to test the iap?

 

With the newly added 'Restore' option on the Codeless IAP button, how do you get this to work with IOS ?
I can purchase non-consumables fine, but they are not restored.

Clicking the 'Restore' button does request itunes (sandbox) login, but afterwards non of the IAP's seem to be restored.

You can click the buy IAP button and it will tell you that you already own it and can get it for free, but this is not what is required.

What steps am I missing using the new restore option?

All non-consumables are set up with Codeless IAP button. Restore button is set up with Codeless IAP button.
How do I make the Restore Button run through and unlock all non-consumables that have previously been purchased?

Thanks in advance

 

Ok, thank you very much for your response and provided informations. Ill look in the example, thanks for tip.
Have a nice day ;-)

 

The codeless restore button is not working for me either. In IOS both sandbox and testflight the button doesn't seem to do anything. It does ask for username and password if you completely log out of itunes but pressing that doesn't restore any purchases nor give any further dialog.

I'm using the latest unity 5.5, IAP 1.10.0, testing on iPad running iOS 10.2.1

 

The restore button, in my case, unlocks previously purchased products when app starts. This is because (I assume) the purchase button has a call to unlock content.

 

Do you have this working on iOS? if so what exactly are you doing?

 

I made a non-codeless sample project just for testing but I've meaning to make one with the codeless buttons. Let me make one tonight and I will send it through here.

Back to your question; I must say that I am not doing anything especial to be honest. All I notice is that when app starts the IAP product gets restored automatically. Possibly because it calls the function in the purchase button. @ap-unity can provide more insight about this.

 

"Purchase failed because Purchasing was not initialized correctly." - on iOS i get the same error with button created with Window -> Unity IAP -> Create IAP Button.. very strange ..the IAP was working and the app is published on the store.. then i just decided to test again the IAPs with the sandbox when this started to happen

 

seems like the iOS testflight iap is down for a while
https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/75044

maybe this is why the restore button hasn't been working. Hopefully it will work when it goes back up.

 

I encounter ""Purchase failed because Purchasing was not initialized correctly." both on ios and android before. It turn out that I set may store id overwrite wrong. I change the overwrite id for ios and android. Now ios works fine but android still got "Purchase failed because Purchasing was not initialized correctly.". How you guys setup the overwrite store id? something like "xx_xx.remove_ads" you setup on google play?

And also I setup window->unity iap->android->google play, no use.

 

This is the project I made: http://makeinunity.com/2017/04/01/unity-in-app-purchase-sample-with-codeless-iap/

 

Thank you!
It worked File.Delete(filenamehere);

 

On iOS, codeless IAPs "Restore" seems to work in that previously purchased non-consumables are restored; however, the notification method that I'm passing to the IApple extension is never being called.

Based on the sample code at the bottom of this Unity docs page I'm calling:

public void RestorePurchases()
{
IAppleExtensions extensions = IAPButton.IAPButtonStoreManager.Instance.ExtensionProvider.GetExtension<IAppleExtensions>();
extensions.RestoreTransactions(TransactionsRestored);
}

private void TransactionsRestored(bool success)
{
Debug.Log("Restore complete. Success: " + success);
}

When I run that on iOS restoration occurs, but TransactionsRestored is never called. Console output show:

Hi,
We're using Unity 5.5.0p3 and Codeless IAP (1.10.1) on our iOS game.
Few days ago, everything was fine but today our IAP prices for EU are wrong.
iTunesConnect and Unity IAP Catalog is set on Tier 1.

On iPhone, the price is 1.99€ instead of 1.09€ (new Europe Tier 1 price).

It seems that Unity doesn't handle the new Apple Tier very well:
Tier 1: 1.09€
Alternate Tier A: 0.49€
Alternate Tier B: 0.99€
Alternate Tier 1: 1.99€

Instead of using new Tier 1 (1.09€), Unity use the alternate Tier 1 (1.99€).

 

我想让Google在应用程序中付款，将签名包装和安装后使用的代码写入Android手机。但是要启动初始化，不退出。点击购买并提示未初始化。你能告诉我如何解决这个问题问题是因为我没有直接提交给Google的背景包装后才能正常运行吗？

 

how to localized price in codeless iap button.
I call this and return 0;
priceText1.text = IAPButton.IAPButtonStoreManager.Instance.StoreController.products.WithID("1500Coins8bullets").metadata.localizedPriceString;

 

hi, how you get localized price in codeless iap button?

 

I apologize for the late reply @yaorao .. a response from another team member @unityjingyao :

Google Play does not allow publishers to buy their own products. Besides, you need to install the app from the store (or side load it on top of an app installed from the store) to test IAPs.

Other causes of IAP initialization failure：

If your phone was purchased in mainland China, it means that your phone does not have Google services installed. You must install the necessary Google services. You can search for “Google Services Installer” in any app store, it can help you install all Google services automatically.​

Chinese version:

谷歌不允许发布者购买自己的商品。另外，你需要从Google商店安装你的应用，或者覆盖安装从Google商店下载并安装的应用。

其他导致IAP初始化失败的原因：

如果你的手机是在中国大陆购买的，那就意味着你的手机没有安装谷歌服务。你必须安装所需的谷歌服务才可以使用。你可以在应用市场搜索“谷歌服务安装器”，它可以帮你自动安装所有的谷歌服务。​

Best,
Jingyao​

 

Hello,

I'm using codeless IAP and really love how easy is it!

I've some animations on my buttons, and I want to trigger them only when I received the IAP content. So there isn't fake/undated content during some time (while I don't have those informations, the whole button is transparent).
Unfortunately, the button doesn't provide an UnityEvent for OnInitialized method. I could modify the IAPButton class, but it wouldn't be a good practice since this code can upgrade itself. So what will be the best way to do it?

Sounds like the IAPButtonStoreManager class should send Event/Action?

 

I’m targetting Android and iOS and just have a couple of questions regarding the Codeless IAP. My game has a local save so I’m not returning PurchaseProcessingResult.Pending.

1: It looks like the buttons are removed from the IAPButtonStoreManager on disable. Does this mean I need to disable exiting from the store until I get onPurchaseComplete / onPurchaseFailed (otherwise the user could be charged but not receive the reward). Or does the confirm purchase dialog not close until it’s ready to call onPurchaseComplete / onPurchaseFailed?
2: If the game crashed in ProcessPurchase() would the user be charged or do they only get changed when ProcessPurchase() returns Complete. If it does charge the user will it call ProcessPurchase() again when they view the store?
3: Is it possible to store custom metadata in a purchase? For example, I buy a non consumable that unlocks a car and restore the purchase after a reinstall. The game has multiple cars so instead of creating a product for every type of car I’d like to be able to just create a car product and pass the car type during the purchase.

 

@ap-unity good to know it might come one day

 

Hey @ap-unity, I've some questions concerning the restore button :

I already make some IAP with pure code in other frameworks. The first thing to do is when the game started, ask for IAP products list, no matter if the shop is visible or not. So I added an invisible button on my first scene. Is it correct?

- on Android, we shouldn't add a restore button. So how do we know a non consumable item has been restored? I mean, on my invisible button something should magically happen??

- on iOS, I press the restore button but its final method is:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. void OnTransactionsRestored(bool success)
3. {
4.     Debug.Log("Transactions restored: " + success);
5. }
6.  

How can I know which items has been restored?

Also since the latest update 1.13.1 adding to OnPurchasedFailed event the IAPButton.OnPurchaseFailed make an infinite loop in the editor and on iOS device.

 

Thanks for the clarification. The documentation says:
On platforms that support it (e.g. Google Play and Universal Windows Applications) Unity IAP automatically restores any products the user owns during the first initialization following reinstallation; the ProcessPurchase method of your IStoreListener will be called for each owned item.

When I created IAP button, I've added this simple callback:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. public void OnPurchaseComplete(Product product) {
3.  
4.     switch (product.definition.id) {
5.  
6.         case "pack_1":
7.            SaveManager.Instance.saveData.currency.coins += 5000;
8.            break;
9.    }
10. }
11.  

This function could not be called automatically from the restore... or I'm missed something.

To clarify my previous note, it means that my invisible active buttons will magically have their purchase method called if I also link them to my callback? At the moment, I just put the callback on my visible active buttons.
