Feature request: Add items to storage from console UI

Local Setup
1

In the Nakama console, there doesn’t seem to be a way to directly insert new entries into storage. This is handy during development when some features in the game arent implemented yet and you want to mock some data for testing of other features.

It seems like a workaround is to use the API Explorer, but would be more convenient if there was an actual UI. Not everyone on the team is a developer, so something more simple for them would be nice.

  1. Versions: Nakama 3.26, All platforms, Console
  2. Server Framework Runtime language (If relevant) Go

Hey @jonbonazza we have a future update planned which will make it easier to create Storage Objects within the Nakama Console. There is a pretty useful workflow which is already supported though:

  1. You can create a JSON document which looks like: hiro/personalizer_storage_nakama.json at main · heroiclabs/hiro · GitHub
  2. Navigate to Nakama Console > Configuration > (scroll to “Import storage data“)
  3. Find the file and open it. You’ll see a success message and the new Storage objects are within the system.

Hope this helps.

Oh wow that’s even better than the API Explorer approach. I didn’t even realize that existed. Thanks!
