Getting my Oculus id (Username)

I'm trying to get my Oculus username (Unity, c#) so I can use it on my game, but unfortunately I'm getting an error message and I can't find a solution myself. My oculus works in the game,

The error message I get is:


NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object


I'm pretty sure I'm missing a step but I can't find it in the manuals.

This is what I did so far:

I imported using Oculus.Platform;

and then I tried:

I call:

Users.GetLoggedInUser().OnComplete(GetLoggedInUserCallback);



Method in my class:

    void GetLoggedInUserCallback(Message<User> msg)
    {
        if (msg.IsError)
        {
            Debug.Log("ERROR: " + msg);
            return;
        }



        Debug.Log(" I am " + msg.Data.OculusID);
    }

    Did you initialize the platform by calling





    Oculus.Platform.Core.Initialize(); 

    first?

    Thanks! I knew I was missing something. Now I get a new error message from the debug error message I wrote (if (msg.IsError) ):


    ERROR: Oculus.Platform.MessageWithUser

    I fixed it by adding  Oculus.Platform.Request.RunCallbacks()
