Create Player

POST

https://api.lootlocker.io/server/player

This endpoint works by creating an unverified session for a player with the platform and identifier from the input. No verification is performed by LootLocker. If a player already exists, the player integer ID and ULID will be returned. If a player doesn't exist yet, one will be created before returning the same integer ID and ULID.

If the player identifier isn't normally sent in the Game API session endpoint, you should ensure that you resolve it correctly from the original platform (eg steam) before calling this endpoint.

The following platforms are supported:

Platform	Value
Steam	steam
PlayStation / PSN	psn

Apple Game Center	apple_game_center
Google Sign In	google_sign_in
Google Play Games	google_play_games
