DataStore Explorer

Inspect, edit, search, and restore Roblox DataStore entries directly from your web browser via Open Cloud.

Overview

The DataStore Explorer gives you full visibility into your game's active DataStores. Powered by the Roblox Open Cloud API, it allows you to view player data, modify stored inventories or leaderstats, inspect version history, and roll back bad data in real-time.

Prerequisites

An active Roblox Open Cloud API Key configured in the dashboard Settings tab.
The API key must have datastore:read and datastore:write scopes enabled for your game's Universe ID.

Key Capabilities

1. DataStore Browsing & Key Search

Select any DataStore in your game (e.g. PlayerXP, InventoryStore, ShadowConfig) and browse stored keys. Filter keys using prefix search to find specific players or system entries.

2. Live JSON Editing & Formatting

Inspect saved entry contents with automatic JSON pretty-printing. Edit values directly in the dashboard and save. ShadowConfig preserves the exact storage format (JSON object vs JSON string) so in-game GetDataStore():GetAsync() calls never crash.

3. Roblox Avatar & User Preview

When viewing player DataStore keys containing a Roblox User ID, the explorer automatically detects the User ID and fetches the player's Roblox avatar thumbnail for quick identification.

4. Version History & One-Click Restore

Roblox DataStores store historical snapshots whenever entries are written. The Version History panel shows every previous snapshot timestamp and version ID, letting you restore any earlier state with a single click.
