There's no page to see currently used limits for ex. "Content and Configuration Reads 20K Reads" or "CloudScript Total Executions 200K Executions". How someone can manage playfab usage to be sure not to go over them?

In your example in the DefinePaymentCurrency function, you create a PayForPurchaseRequest without defining the ProviderName. This results in an "Invalid Input Parameters" error, because it's required even when paying with virtual currency.
It would also be helpful to give a ProviderName example when paying with VC, for example Title123456 (I found out what to put here by logging the payment options from StartPurchaseResult, but haven't found it anywhere in the documentation).

Following the steps of the Debugging a deployed multiplayer server section is unclear. Step 1 is fine. Step 2, do I run the installer or include the installer in my assets package? When I run the installer, it installs a loads of files into directories I have no control of so it is very unclear which I need to copy into the assets package. If I include the installer, then there is no msvsmon command to execute. I believe the installer is a graphical one, so cannot be invoked properly at the command line?
Please can you clarify these steps

Hello,
The links to GitHub under the resources section (for PS4 and Nintendo Switch) lead to a 404 instead of the source code.

The description says this: "This event is optionally triggered when an Entity CloudScript function is executed, either by calling the ExecuteCloudScript API with the GeneratePlayStreamEvent option or triggered by a PlayStream event action with the 'Publish results as a PlayStream Event' box checked."
In reality, this event would be fired when someone calls "ExecuteEntityCloudScript" not "ExecuteCloudScript" and it cannot be fired as a result of a PlayStream action because execute entity cloud script is not an action PlayFab supports (I'm not sure where this feedback goes, feel free to reach out to tomgu if you have questions)

In trying to get a file to upload, the implied 'filename' wasn't working. I see now looking more closely that there's a payload as part of the PlayFabHttp.SimplePutCall. This is the meat of the upload, but following the paper-chase of file upload documentation that mostly just points to this example repeatedly, this isn't made at all clear anywhere. Even the deconstruction on this page doesn't make any mention of this call as the actual method that uploads the file.
The guides for file uploads absolutely need to make mention of this and any other methods for uploading data, starting with an update to this example to draw our attention to this SimplePutCall call.
Even searching the documentation for "PlayFabHttp.SimplePutCall" yields no references!

Hi, thank you for the useful sample.
You say the sample gets all the title data:
public void ClientGetTitleData() {
PlayFabClientAPI.GetTitleData(new GetTitleDataRequest(),
result => {
if(result.Data == null || !result.Data.ContainsKey("MonsterName")) Debug.Log("No MonsterName");
else Debug.Log("MonsterName: "+result.Data["MonsterName"]);
},
error => {
Debug.Log("Got error getting titleData:");
Debug.Log(error.GenerateErrorReport());
}
);
}
But in fact, it displays only the value for this key MonsterName. In the dictionary result.Data, there are in fact all the title data (keys and values), but the sample displays just the value for one key.
I felt the need to clarify this. Thank you.

The text in the command does not match the text in the part that can be copied, and so it is unclear exactly what should be copied (the whole thing, or just the part after the period.)

There's no ad API, so I have to guess.
Main problem for ads is making sure the player has watched something. Or has at least a certain time between start and end. I bet you don't have that, so having that would be a requirement.
Rewarded ads are only actually good when the player knows what he's getting. Otherwise why watch it? This is very notably in my ads. Not sure if the client can see the rewards beforehand and I'm pretty sure those random odds are actually harmful for inexperienced devs.
My best ad is where you get something client based (double offline gold or a special productivity buff), not a Playfab item/VC. Not sure if your model covers that.

I fear the "Go to Settings" part doesn't make sense anymore. "Settings" isn't a top-level tab of Game Manager. Now you have to click the gear next to the title at the top left, then select "Title settings".

Please update this page to work with PUN 2 (demos!) or create a new tutorial to get PlayFab up and running with the PUN 2 plugin in Unity.
I guess the "DemoHub-Scene" scene in PUN 2 is different to PUN and therefore erros occur. SlotRacer and Cockpit are not working with the PlayFabAuthenticator script above.
