# Auxvyn.get()

### Syntax

```lua
Auxvyn.get(userId: number | string, key: string): any
```

***

### Parameters

| Parameter | Type             | Required   | Description                 |
| --------- | ---------------- | ---------- | --------------------------- |
| `userId`  | number or string | <h3>✓</h3> | The player's Roblox user ID |
| `key`     | string           | <h3>✓</h3> | The key to retrieve         |

***

### Returns

The value stored at that key, or `nil` if the key does not exist.

***

### Example

```lua
local coins = Auxvyn.get(player.UserId, "coins")

if coins ~= nil then
    print("Player has", coins, "coins")
else
    print("No coins data found — using default")
    coins = 0
end
```

***

### Always Handle nil

`Auxvyn.get()` returns `nil` for players who have never had data stored. Always provide a fallback:

```lua
local coins = Auxvyn.get(player.UserId, "coins") or 0
local level = Auxvyn.get(player.UserId, "level") or 1
local username = Auxvyn.get(player.UserId, "username") or "Unknown"
```
