Hi everyone, 
recently i was developing a leaderboard in unreal connected to the oculus platform, but even after i submitted and got approved on the Data use checkup im not able to get user information to populate de leaderboard.
im not the administrator on our oculus developer dashboard maybe it is that.

Does anyone had a similar issue and know what might be going on?

    yeah i found out that my oculus platform SDK was outdated the default one in ue 4.27 does not support getting username display from a leaderboard. if anyone has a similar problem would recommend checking that.
    i feel dumb now for not looking for this earlier 😅 

    Thanks for the reply anyways 👍

    Hi 
     
    I had a kind of similar issue and turns out the version of Oculus platform SDK in my project was mismatched with referred documentation.
     
    I ended up using 

     

    ovr_User_GetOculusID(ovrUserHandle);

    for user name and it worked.

     

     
    Hope this helps.
