context_v1_pointsAutomation.AwardPoints assigns points twice

If you are aiming for it to only be assigned once per user per thread, use context_v1_pointsAutomation.ArePointsAwarded to confirm whether points already exist for that user and thread.

I'm not sure how that code snippet is related since that would be revoking points. I also don't know where your event log messages are firing from.

I see a ContentFragmentRenderingError. Does looking this error up in the exceptions log provide any additional details?

Hi Steven, Thank you for the response. I dont see any exception in the logs.

Below is the code snippet. It fires on - ForumReplyVote.AfterCreate event

var userId = context_v2_automationTrigger.Arguments.UserId;
core_v2_exceptions.Log("Assign points to content author -started");
var forumReplyResponse = core_v2_forumReply.Get(context_v2_automationTrigger.Arguments.ReplyId);
var awardedPoints = context_v1_pointsAutomation.ArePointsAwarded(forumReplyResponse.Author.Id, forumReplyResponse.contentId, core_v2_forumReply.ContentTypeId);
core_v2_exceptions.Log("awardedPoints"??+ awardedPoints);
if (!awardedPoints) {
context_v1_pointsAutomation.AwardPoints(forumReplyResponse.Author.Id, forumReplyResponse.contentId, core_v2_forumReply.ContentTypeId);
}
core_v2_exceptions.Log("Assign points to content author- Ended");

I brought this code to my Vanilla version of the community and tried. Again, I see the same issue. After the "verify answer" action, the system fires my custom achievement once, but awards point twice.

Thanks you!

I was able to run the above code successfully and only have points assigned once. A development note - you might want to use core_v2_eventLog instead of core_v2_exceptions, it might make it easier to track since duplicate exceptions get rolled up.

Where are you verifying where points are assigned? Can you share a screenshot?

I'm assuming you've created a configured points rule using this automation, otherwise it wouldn't be running at all. Can you confirm you only have one configured enabled points rule using this automation?

Is the 2nd point award, coming from another point automation, perhaps one for having an answer verified? 

I checked again, only these are the active point automations:

• Verify answer -  30 points
• Reply to a post - 15 points
• Vote on a post reply - assign it to reply author - 7 Points
• New post - 5 Points

Here are the steps:

1)  User1 starts a Q & A thread

2) User 2 responds to the question

           -- Gets 15 points

3) User 1 makes the reply as a "verified answer"

4) User 2 gets

            30 for Verified answer

             7 for user1 voting on the reply

             7 for user1 voting on the reply (Repeat)

Do you have two different items that are both using the same Automation when you look at the Membership > Points page in administration.  I can repro this by adding two different usages that both use your automation above.  First time, you vote on a reply, get two different point awards.  Change vote and awardedPoints is true and no new points records are added.  You should also be seeing 2 instances of each exception getting added the first time you vote on a reply.
