How do you convert a Message.timestampMillis from long to an easier-to-parse format like DateTime in Beamable Chat?

If I have a class level static variable in my microservice, is that static value global to all game clients calling the microservice, or is it unique to each client calling the microservice? For example, let's say I have a static class level variable that incremented every time a microservice method is called. If player A (client 1) calls 1 function, and player B (client 2) calls 2 functions, would the value be different for each player, or would it be a global value?

I'm working on a realm data diff tool that has this criteria

Hello,

How can I understand why my microservice build fails? Specifically, there are linkage errors (as though referenced assemblies aren't copied), though in the build folder those assemblies are pulled in. For all the types that I load from manually referenced DLLs, I get an error during build, saying that the type is not found. It used to work, and I think that this problem presents any time I push the microservice to the server, but not during local builds.

I want to prevent players from logging in on multiple devices and playing the same account at the same time. Any good solutions?

Hi Beamable! I tried baking beamable content and now I want to reset it (download all content from server). Will simply deleting bakedContent.bytes do the job?

Every once in a while, after starting microservices locally, they return a NullReferenecException whenever they try to access a storage db with Storage.GetDatabase() (which is pretty much all the time in this case). Locally this usually goes away after restarting them a couple times. Deployed microservices keep doing that though. Any idea what could be going wrong?

When do you use ApplyToken and UpdateUserData? Or should we be using just one and not the other?

Is it possible to get more logs from the microservice or connect to a container? My microservice stopped starting (after adding too much code?), if I change the base image from 6.0-alpine to 6.0 it starts but seems to be crashing. The local container works fine.
