Unity Services Leaderboard Integration with Google Play Games ID

Unity Services
1

Hello great community,

I am adding a leaderboard to my game using Unity Services Leaderboard. I wanted it to be seamless. That is why I started by integrating Google Play Games for the authentication and then set up the leaderboard.

the thing is that when I add a score to the leaderboard, it adds a random player name. not the one logged in with but something like StupendousAdoringCatfish & SilkyLyingHamper.

I expect to see my user name on Google Play Games.

What is happening? and how can I fix it?

Thanks for your help

Upon the first use of an account, if you don’t set a user name, the services will use an auto generated one (the ones you are seeing). See here for more information about player name management: Player name management

So, I need to capture the Username from Google ID and transfer it to Unity Authenticate. is that right?

That’s one way to do it, yes.
