Why should I use inventory to store player data over mongoDB?

Hey, seeing as how data held in mongo db is much easier to manipulate and get access to, why should I use inventory to store player data? Is there a disadvantage to this approach that I'm not aware of?

How do I set up localized prices for Beamable SKUs?

How do I set up prices for Beamable SKUs so that they are localized? Does Beamable handle this part at all, or are we just rendering in USD always? Was digging through the code and couldn't find this part - need to do the same in my UI (localized real money prices on ios and android).

Iran Region Availability

Hello. I'm curious to know if Beamable services work for end users located in Iran? The reason I'm asking this is we're actively looking for a backend service that offers a trusted global availability on API usage for end users (we're not looking for multiplayer stuff, only APIs). I have run some tests using Iran's IP too, most of the API seems to be working, but some APIs are failing, and some other don't even connect, I'm wondering if that is because of development tier? Thanks in advance.

Can't visualize Microservice storage database after publishing

As a Unity dev, this was my first time using MongoDB and Docker. After we finished our local database setup with different tables, we would like to try publishing it to Beamable servers and access it via the dashboard. Howerver, when clicking on "Explore Data", the new Mongo Express window does not show anything but "Turn on admin in config.js to view server stats!". In the dashboard, there is no sign of a a field where I could change the properties of this file. Do we have to make the change before publishing the database? Maybe in Unity using the Beamable SDK, or in Docker? Thank you
