I’m trying to track some stuff on the server side whenever a client creates a party. I have registerd a hook with the nakama Go runtime via `initializer.RegisterAfterRt` using the `PartyCreate` id, however the `Envelope_PartyCreate` proto only includes whether the party is open and the max size. Is there a way to get the ID of the party that was created as well as the current presences?

Another option I’ve considered is trying to use the `PartyJoin` id instead, but:  
a) I’m not sure whther a join hook will be called for the person who creates a new party  
and  
b) The `Envelope_PartyJoin` proto only includes the party id, so I’m still not sure how I’d go about getting the presences. 🤔

I was also facing same issue and here is the solution to access party id in GO,

```auto
func AfterPartyCreate(ctx context.Context, logger runtime.Logger, db *sql.DB, nk runtime.NakamaModule, out *rtapi.Envelope, in *rtapi.Envelope) error {
	logger.Info("AfterPartyCreate Hook called")

	envelope, ok := out.Message.(*rtapi.Envelope_Party)
	if !ok {
		logger.Error("error getting envelope as AfterPartyCreate envelope")
		return runtime.NewError("error getting envelope as AfterPartyCreate envelope", 13)
	}

	logger.Info(envelope.Party.PartyId)

	return nil
}

```

Thanks @surajTLabs. I didn’t think the `out` paramter was fully populated during this callback. I should have checked that. I was attempting to use the `in` parameter instead. This makes sense though.

My only other qualm, then, is that there doesn’t seem to be a way to get party data for a given party id via the nakama server api.
