OnTokenRefreshed
inSetNativePlatformTokenRefreshScheduler
method inFOnlineSubsystemAccelByte
and store the DelegateHandle inNativeTokenRefreshHandles
. - Changed raw pointer delegates to thread-safe SharedPointer delegate for
AddOnLoginCompleteDelegate_Handle
andAddOnConnectLobbyCompleteDelegate_handle
duringFOnlineSubsystemAccelByte
initialization process.
- Changed lambda delegates to thread-safe SharedPointer delegate for
- [Unreal Engine] Improved the lifetime management for the following:

- [Admin Portal][Login Queue] The Login Queue configuration now supports Polling Time adjustments, which is the maximum polling time for refreshing the queue info for a player.

- [Admin Portal][Player Portal] Changing passwords now requires a 2FA validation for users with 2FA method enabled.

Breaking changes
- Introduced breaking changes on the Inventory service which include removing filter items by quantity (qtyGte query parameter) and removing the ability to sort items by their quantity (qty, qty:asc, and qty:desc) on the AdminListItems and PublicListItems endpoints. This has the following impacts:
- Cannot filter items by quantity (qtyGte query parameter). Items will now be returned by default if their quantity is one or more. If the qtyGte parameter is included in a query, it will be ignored by the service.
- Cannot sort items based on the number of quantity (qty value). If the
sortBy
query parameter still uses the qty, qty:asc, or qty:desc value, the service will revert to the default sorting method, which sorts the items by the creation time (createdAt value).
- [Unreal Engine] Removed the quantity parameter from
Inventory::GetUserInventoryAllItems()
and theQUANTITY
,QUANTITY_AS
,QUANTITY_DESC
enum fromEAccelByteUserItemsSortBy
.
