Unity Authentication Service in Unreal

Requirements

• Unreal Engine version 5.1.1 or later
• A Unity account
• The Unity Gaming Services SDK for Unreal Engine

Integration steps

1. Ensure you have a compatible version of the Unreal Engine for the Unity Gaming Services for Unreal Plugin. Refer to the SDK page in the Unreal Marketplace for more information.
2. Go to the Unity Gaming Services SDK for Unreal Engine Unreal Engine Marketplace page in your Epic Games Launcher, or select Open in Launcher from the linked Marketplace page.
3. Load the plug-in into your project on the Epic Games Launcher Marketplace page.
4. Go into your Project Settings and locate the Unity Authentication plug-in settings.
5. Place the Project ID from your Project page on the Unity Dashboard into the Project ID field. The setting will likely autoformat. Place the target environment name in the Environment Name field.

Authenticate with the Unity Authentication Service

1. Add Authentication to the PublicDependencyModuleName in your project’s build.cs file
   • Once you install the plug-in and assign settings in your project, you can set up and une the

     AuthenticationSubsystem

     in C++.
2. Get the UGameInstance from the GameWorld and assign the AuthenticationSubsystem to a variable from the GameInstance.

   UWorld* GameWorld = GetWorld();UGameInstance* GameInstance = GameWorld->GetGameInstance();UAuthenticationSubsystem* AuthenticationSubsystem = GameInstance->GetSubsystem<UAuthenticationSubsystem>();

3. Set up an

   AuthenticationResponse

   UFunction, named

   OnAuthentication

   in the following example, to track when the Authentication has finished successfully. Then, pass it into SignInAnonymously, along with any

   FAuthenticationSignInOptions

   you need.

   Unity::Services::Core::THandler<FAuthenticationResponse> authenticationResponse;FName OnAuthenticationFName("OnAuthentication");authenticationResponse.BindUFunction(this, OnAuthenticationFName);FAuthenticationSignInOptions signInOptions;AuthenticationSubsystem->SignInAnonymously(signInOptions, authenticationResponse);

4. After Authentication has successfully authenticated to the UGS Service, replace the LoginToken in any

   LoginSession.BeginLogin

   call with the AuthenticationSubsystem->GetAccessToken(). Below is an example:

   LoginSession.BeginLogin(WebService, AuthenticationSubsystem->GetAccessToken(), SubscriptionMode::Accept, TSet<AccountId>(), TSet<AccountId>(), TSet<AccountId>(), OnBeginLoginCompleteCallback);

   注

   When using Unity Authentication Access Tokens, the local AccountID’s Account Name should be the same as the Authentication PlayerID, as shown here:

   //This is being done in OnAuthentication, using the returned FAuthenticationResponse as responseAccountId m_Account = AccountId(m_tokenIssuer, response.UserId, m_domain)

ChannelSession

ChannelSession.BeginConnect(true, false, true, AuthenticationSubsystem->GetAccessToken(), OnBeginConnectCompleteCallback);
