# PFLobbyGetMemberProperty

> PFLobbyGetMemberProperty reference for reading a specific member's custom property value by key on a PlayFab lobby via the PlayFab Multiplayer C++ SDK.

Get the member property's value from its key.

## Syntax

```cpp theme={null}
HRESULT PFLobbyGetMemberProperty(  
    PFLobbyHandle lobby,  
    const PFEntityKey* member,  
    const char* key,  
    const char** value  
)  
```

### Parameters

**`lobby`**   PFLobbyHandle

The handle of the lobby.

**`member`**   [PFEntityKey\*](/services/playfab/multiplayer/lobby/playfabmultiplayerreference-cpp/pfmultiplayer/pfentitykey_clientsdk)

The member whose property bag we want to query.

**`key`**   char\*\
*is null-terminated*

The key of the property.

**`value`**   char\*\*\
*library-allocated output, may return nullptr*

The output value associated with the key. An output null value signifies the property wasn't present.

### Return value

Type: HRESULT

`S_OK` if the call succeeded or an error code otherwise. The human-readable form of the error code can be retrieved via [PFMultiplayerGetErrorMessage()](/services/playfab/multiplayer/lobby/playfabmultiplayerreference-cpp/pfmultiplayer/functions/pfmultiplayergeterrormessage).

## Remarks

Per-member properties are only visible to members of the lobby or the server if this is a server-owned lobby. <br /><br /> If the member is still in the process of asynchronously joining this lobby either via [PFMultiplayerCreateAndJoinLobby()](/services/playfab/multiplayer/lobby/playfabmultiplayerreference-cpp/pflobby/functions/pfmultiplayercreateandjoinlobby), [PFMultiplayerJoinLobby()](/services/playfab/multiplayer/lobby/playfabmultiplayerreference-cpp/pflobby/functions/pfmultiplayerjoinlobby), or [PFLobbyAddMember()](/services/playfab/multiplayer/lobby/playfabmultiplayerreference-cpp/pflobby/functions/pflobbyaddmember), this method will return no properties.
