Game Manager overview

This article introduces Game Manager, the PlayFab developer portal. This article identifies portal page elements, and helps you get familiar with the portal experience.

What is the Game Manager?

The Game Manager is a web-based dashboard that provides access to your studios and tools to manage your games. It is your go-to destination for managing your studio and game configurations. Most PlayFab tutorials show you how to complete tasks in Game Manager, and through API calls.

PlayFab's Game Manager offers a comprehensive backend suite, allowing you to select the services that best suit your game.

Use Game Manager to invite teammates to collaborate, grant them full or partial access, manage secret keys, configure encryption settings, and set client app trust levels.

About the Game Manager interface

When you sign in to Game Manager, you're presented with the My Studios and Titles page, which lists all of the studios and titles to which you have access. To manage a title, select it.

Management of a Title is divided into four major views:

• Title Overview - Review of the recent and overarching performance of your title.
• Build - Foundational elements and tools to configure your game.
• Engage - Facilitate connections with players.
• Analyze - Monitor and act on player behaviors.
