# Class: TeleportOptions

> Optional input arguments to the [TeleportService:TeleportAsync()](/docs/reference/engine/classes/TeleportService.md)
> function.

## Description

This class is an optional parameter to the
[TeleportService:TeleportAsync()](/docs/reference/engine/classes/TeleportService.md) function that allows developers to
provide arguments for the teleport call.

Certain arguments in this class are not compatible with each other and cause
an error when passed to [TeleportService:TeleportAsync()](/docs/reference/engine/classes/TeleportService.md):

- ReservedServerAccessCode + ServerInstanceId
- ShouldReserveServer + ServerInstanceId
- ShouldReserveServer + ReservedServerAccessCode

For more information on how to teleport players between servers, see
[Teleporting Between Places](/docs/en-us/projects/teleport.md).

## Properties

### Property: TeleportOptions.ReservedServerAccessCode

```json
{
  "type": "string",
  "access": "ReadWrite",
  "security": {
    "read": "None",
    "write": "None"
  },
  "serialization": {
    "can_load": true,
    "can_save": true
  },
  "thread_safety": "ReadSafe",
  "category": "Data",
  "capabilities": [
    "Teleport"
  ]
}
```

This property indicates the reserved server access code for the reserved
server that the user(s) should be teleported to.

For more information on how to teleport players between servers, see
[Teleporting Between Places](/docs/en-us/projects/teleport.md).

### Property: TeleportOptions.ServerInstanceId

```json
{
  "type": "string",
  "access": "ReadWrite",
  "security": {
    "read": "None",
    "write": "None"
  },
  "serialization": {
    "can_load": true,
    "can_save": true
  },
  "thread_safety": "ReadSafe",
  "category": "Data",
  "capabilities": [
    "Teleport"
  ]
}
```

This property indicates the [DataModel.JobId](/docs/reference/engine/classes/DataModel.md) of the server instance
the user(s) should be teleported to.

For more information on how to teleport players between servers, see
[Teleporting Between Places](/docs/en-us/projects/teleport.md).

### Property: TeleportOptions.ShouldReserveServer

```json
{
  "type": "boolean",
  "access": "ReadWrite",
  "security": {
    "read": "None",
    "write": "None"
  },
  "serialization": {
    "can_load": true,
    "can_save": true
  },
  "thread_safety": "ReadSafe",
  "category": "Data",
  "capabilities": [
    "Teleport"
  ]
}
```

This property indicates whether the teleport call should create a new
reserved server. When set to true, a reserved server will be created and
the player(s) will be teleported to the new server.

If set to false, the player(s) will be teleported to the public server
with the specified [TeleportOptions.ServerInstanceId](/docs/reference/engine/classes/TeleportOptions.md) if provided.
When [TeleportOptions.ServerInstanceId](/docs/reference/engine/classes/TeleportOptions.md) is blank or no matching
server is found, a new public server will be created to teleport the
player(s) to.

[Teleporting Between Places](/docs/en-us/projects/teleport.md).

## Methods

### Method: TeleportOptions:GetTeleportData

**Signature:** `TeleportOptions:GetTeleportData(): Variant`

This function returns the teleport data stored in the
[TeleportOptions](/docs/reference/engine/classes/TeleportOptions.md) instance by
[TeleportOptions:SetTeleportData()](/docs/reference/engine/classes/TeleportOptions.md).

Once a player has teleported, teleport data can be retrieved using the
[Player:GetJoinData()](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Player.md) and
[TeleportService:GetLocalPlayerTeleportData()](/docs/reference/engine/classes/TeleportService.md) functions.

For more information on how to teleport players between servers, see
[Teleporting Between Places](/docs/en-us/projects/teleport.md).

*Security: None · Thread Safety: Unsafe · Capabilities: Teleport*

**Returns:** `Variant`

### Method: TeleportOptions:SetTeleportData

**Signature:** `TeleportOptions:SetTeleportData(teleportData: Variant): ()`

This is a setter function for data to be passed to the destination place.
On the destination place, this data can be retrieved using
[Player:GetJoinData()](/docs/reference/engine/classes/Player.md) or
[TeleportService:GetLocalPlayerTeleportData()](/docs/reference/engine/classes/TeleportService.md).

For example, the following snippet would send the
[DataModel.PlaceId](/docs/reference/engine/classes/DataModel.md) and [DataModel.JobId](/docs/reference/engine/classes/DataModel.md) in a dictionary
passing the teleport data in a [TeleportOptions](/docs/reference/engine/classes/TeleportOptions.md) instance using
[TeleportOptions:SetTeleportData()](/docs/reference/engine/classes/TeleportOptions.md):

```lua
-- Server
local teleportOptions = Instance.new("TeleportOptions")
local teleportData = {
    placeId = game.PlaceId,
    jobId = game.JobId
}
teleportOptions:SetTeleportData(teleportData)
TeleportService:TeleportAsync(game.PlaceId, {player}, teleportOptions)
```

This data could then be retrieved upon arrival using the
GetLocalPlayerTeleportData() function as follows:

```lua
-- Client
local TeleportService = game:GetService("TeleportService")

local teleportData = TeleportService:GetLocalPlayerTeleportData()
if teleportData then
    local placeId = teleportData.placeId
    local jobId = teleportData.JobId
end
```

If no `teleportData` was set in the teleportation function this
GetLocalPlayerTeleportData() will return `nil`.

teleports, see, see
[Teleporting Between Places](/docs/en-us/projects/teleport.md#sending-user-data-along-with-teleports).

*Security: None · Thread Safety: Unsafe · Capabilities: Teleport*

**Parameters:**

| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|------|------|---------|-------------|
| `teleportData` | `Variant` |  | Data to be passed to the destination place. |

**Returns:** `()`
