    hi guys,
    i saw this video :-
    so i now i know how to get licence key,leaderboard id and game service id.
    i have never used leaderboard and achievement before.
    so my question is:-
    1.) while making the apk file is there any changes that needs to be made in android studio.
    2.) is there anything else that needs to be done for proper functioning of leaderboard?

    Once you have the data entered in your options within Buildbox, you can compile without doing anything manually. And publish it.

    You must have everything configured in your developer profile in the official store.

    And after spending 24 hours. It would already be working in your game.

    Simply put a "Navigation Button" button set to "Game Services" somewhere.

    And do not forget to put the code of your Leaderboard in the configurations of Buildbox.

    And publish that version with these changes in the official store.

    No, you don't have to design UI screen for Leaderboard. It will open native AppStore/Google Play leaderboard.

    The video is over 2 years old, can someone who has successfully implemented leaderboards, please update the video, or provide "How To" in this post.

    I continue to get "sign in error" when connecting my app to Google Play Services. I am missing something, but I can't figure it out.

    Thanks
    -Larry

    If you haven't published the game yet, it will always be a sign in error @Larry Pendleton . Your steps could already be right, you just haven't published it yet.

    @DariusGuerrero Are you talking about an actual Production published live to the Play Store?
