Overview

AccelByte Gaming Services (AGS) allow you to browse and manage user achievements data from the AGS Admin Portal. Managing user achievements data is essential for maintaining accurate and up to date information. Here are some common reasons for these actions:

• Development phase: If you need to manually lock and unlock your testing user achievement data during integration/development phase
• Error correction: If there is a technical glitch in the game that prevents the player from unlocking the achievement and you need to manually correct the issue
• Community engagement: If you need to manually recognize outstanding contributions from your players by giving an achievement
