Where is the documentation for Utility.SetAccessTokenForNetwork?

Web Resources

Utility.SetAccessTokenForNetwork is being called in this network tutorial without any explanation why.
If I call the function twice with the same parameters ( called first for the server, and second for the client ), it throws an exception.
By the way, I’m trying to create an instance of the host and the client in the same executable for convenience’s sake.
My solution is to call Utility.GetAccessTokenForNetwork first, although of course there’s no docs for that either. Am I doing the right thing?

ArgumentException: An element with the same key already exists in the dictionary.

Hi @mochizerg
SetAccessTokenForNetwork sets the auth token for the client in that match, which is returned by matchmaker when a client creates or joins a match. Sadly there’s a bug in 5.3 and earlier that throws an exception when double adding.
You can just wrap that call in a try/catch and ignore the exception in those versions, it means the relevant data is already in there.
