Hello,

can someone indicate me if there is a way on how to setup a project with PlayFab ( from Microsoft Azure ) for GMS2 Desktop ( Windows 10 )? If so how or is there any guide or instructions for this?

Thank you

You can either write your own external wrapper or use the built-in http functions combined with playfab's rest-like web apis:
If you prefer not to use our available SDKs, you can access the entire PlayFab service directly via these REST-like Web APIs. For simplicity and security, all function calls are HTTP POST requests over SSL, and all data is formatted as JSON with optional gzip encoding.
Be aware that gms2 currently has a few bugs with some of its http functions. One on mac that was recently resolved in version 2.2.4, another on Ubuntu, and this general one.

As for alternatives, gamesparks was considering adding an official gms sdk a few years ago but it was sadly never implemented (though there are unofficial extensions floating around the market).
