## Signature

```c
void NETWORK_GET_LOCAL_HANDLE(Any* gamerHandle);
```

## Parameters

- `gamerHandle` (`Any*`)

## Returns

`void`

## Usage

### Lua

```lua
local gamerHandle = NetworkGetLocalHandle(gamerHandle)

-- always available, by hash
local gamerHandle = Citizen.InvokeNative(0xE86051786B66CD8E, Citizen.PointerValueIntInitialized(gamerHandle))
```

### JavaScript

```js
const gamerHandle = NetworkGetLocalHandle(gamerHandle);

// by hash
const gamerHandle = Citizen.invokeNative('0xE86051786B66CD8E', Citizen.pointerValueIntInitialized(gamerHandle));
```

### C#

```csharp
var gamerHandle = new OutputArgument();
Function.Call((Hash)0xE86051786B66CD8E, gamerHandle);
// gamerHandle.GetResult<int>()
```

- The last argument is an in/out pointer: pass its initial value, and the updated value is returned after the result.
- `Any*` arguments are often structs. Build them with a DataView buffer and pass it with `:Buffer()` — see the examples and notes below.
