User Specific Games Progress

A call to this endpoint will retrieve a given user's progress on a given list of games, targeted by a list of game IDs.

WARNING

Unless you are explicitly wanting summary progress details for specific game IDs, the All Completion Progress endpoint will almost certainly be better-suited for your use case.

val response: NetworkResponse<GetUserProgress.Response, ErrorResponse> = api.getUserProgress(
    username = "MaxMilyin",
    gameId = "1,2,3"
)

if (response is NetworkResponse.Success) {
    // handle the data
    val userProgress: GetUserProgress.Response = response.body

} else if (response is NetworkResponse.Error) {
    // if the server returns an error it be found here
    val errorResponse: ErrorResponse? = response.body

    // if the api (locally) had an internal error, it'll be found here
