```

## Parameters

- `gamerHandle` (`Any*`)

## Returns

`Player`

## Usage

### Lua

```lua
local retval, gamerHandle = NetworkGetPlayerFromGamerHandle(gamerHandle)

-- always available, by hash
local retval, gamerHandle = Citizen.InvokeNative(0xCE5F689CF5A0A49D, Citizen.PointerValueIntInitialized(gamerHandle), Citizen.ResultAsInteger())
```

### JavaScript

```js
const [retval, gamerHandle] = NetworkGetPlayerFromGamerHandle(gamerHandle);

// by hash
const [retval, gamerHandle] = Citizen.invokeNative('0xCE5F689CF5A0A49D', Citizen.pointerValueIntInitialized(gamerHandle), Citizen.returnResultAnyway(), Citizen.resultAsInteger());
```

### C#

```csharp
var gamerHandle = new OutputArgument();
int retval = Function.Call<int>((Hash)0xCE5F689CF5A0A49D, 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.
