VaRest Help

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint

Ok, seeings as I cannot find anything anywhere about this plugin to help me, Ive decided to start a thread…
Im attempting to use VaRest to connect to my mysql server so I can create a login system, etc.
The problem is I have never used rest before, I have grasped the basic idea but cannot figure out how to input data into the rest function, for example how to put the username specified in udk into the sql query to get that users information.

For those of you who have not used VaRest but may know rest here is the link to VaRest: GitHub - ufna/VaRest: REST API plugin for Unreal Engine 4 - we love restfull backend and JSON comm

Any help will be much appreciated!

You will need to research about REST API’s. You can’t just plug a rest call into a sql database, you need a REST framework there to understand what it is. Same way you would use PHP or Python or something to control your MySQL database calls.
