Get the balance
Read the connected player's coins, daily reward streak, perks and XP boost, and what this device may spend today.
GET /v1/player/balance · for player session
Use it to show the wallet, and to decide whether a Buy button is enabled before the player presses it. It takes no parameters. Send the player session as the bearer token. The request needs the game loop. For the three conditions (game loop enabled for the game, member consent, server membership) and the error each returns, see What has to be true first. The community's economy must also be enabled: otherwise the response is 409 with the code economy_disabled.
