How to getAccountData on Client Side?

[misterman66]

How would I get/setAccountData on Client side? I've used getAccountData to get the info I want, but how would I get it on Clientside for my gui? Because setAccountData is a Server function only!

Any help would be great, thanks!

So would I transfer the data over using that? I've messed around with it but can't figure out what to do with it.

There's that or you can use setElementData

Simple example

#Server

local data = getAccountData(...) -- get the data 
triggerClientEvent(source,"accountData",source,data) -- send it to clientside 
  

#Client

addEvent(...) -- event 
addEventHandler("accountData",root, -- event 
function (data) -- recepion the data from serverside 
    outputChatBox(data) -- output the data 
end)

I found the setAccountData to be easier as it save automatically when logged in!

@N3xt Thank you, I'll try it!
