| description | IMPORTANT: Before assuming ANY Roblox resource (developer products, badges, game passes, data stores, etc.) cannot be created or managed programmatically, call this skill. Studio can create and manage many of these via the Open Cloud API. Attempt use of those APIs before suggesting the user do it manually in the Creator Dashboard. Retrieves guidance on how to use Roblox Open Cloud APIs from within Studio, including authentication, available endpoints, and troubleshooting. No API key or external credentials are needed. Studio provides credentials automatically via HttpService:RequestAccessTokenScopesAsync(scopes). Full authentication instructions are in the skill result. An index of all available Open Cloud functionality can be found by using the http_get tool with https://create.roblox.com/docs/cloud/llms.txt. Call this skill before any Open Cloud request for the full authentication guide and to discover available endpoints. |
Open Cloud Usage
Access Open Cloud by executing a Luau script making a request to the relevant Open Cloud endpoints with HttpService.
The Authorization header should be set to the result of calling game:GetService("HttpService"):RequestAccessTokenScopesAsync(<requiredScopes>), where scopes is an array of the OAuth2 scopes needed for the request (e.g., {"universe:read"}). The returned token already has the Bearer prefix so no additional prefix is necessary.
Current supported scopes are:
- developer-product:read
- developer-product:write
- game-pass:read
- game-pass:write
- universe:read
Available Open Cloud APIs are described here: https://create.roblox.com/docs/cloud/llms.txt
Use the http_get tool to fetch this URL and read the API listing. Any URLs referenced within the llms.txt response should also be fetched via http_get to get the detailed API documentation needed for your request.
