Cannot retrieve user progress or earned trophies per Trophy Group — all data appears duplicated from main Trophy Title

[Argosth]

Hi, first of all, thanks for this amazing SDK!

I'm currently working on a project where I need to retrieve a user's earned trophies per group (e.g., base game vs. DLCs), including details like progress, earnedBronze, earnedSilver, etc.

However, I noticed that when I fetch the trophy groups using:

$groups = $this->client->trophies($title->npCommunicationId(), $title->serviceName())->trophyGroups();

Each TrophyGroup seems to return the same data as the parent TrophyTitle — all groups have identical trophy counts (bronze, silver, gold, platinum) and do not reflect the user's actual progress or earned status within each group.

Here’s a sample output:

[ { "id": "default", "name": "God of War Ragnarök", "bronze": 27, "earnedBronze": 0, "progress": 0 }, { "id": "001", "name": "God of War Ragnarök: Valhalla", "bronze": 27, "earnedBronze": 0, "progress": 0 } ]

Even when I fetch trophies from each group ($group->trophies()), the returned list includes all trophies from the entire game, not just those for the given group.

Is there any known way to get user-specific progress or earned trophies per trophy group (e.g., only the DLC group)? Or is this a current limitation of the official PSN API?

Thanks in advance for your help — and once again, fantastic work on this project!

client->trophies() will get the trophy data for the game you're fetching.

To get trophy data from a user, you must go via the user in question.

// If you already know the account_id
// $user = $client->users()->find(123);
// otherwise search for it
// foreach ($client->users()->search("online_id") as $userSearchResult)
// store the wanted user in $user, you also need to do some testing so it isn't private or any other errors. The profile needs to be public in order to retrieve trophy data.
foreach ($user->trophyTitles() as $trophyTitle) {
   foreach ($trophyTitle->trophyGroups() as $trophyGroup) {
      foreach ($trophyGroup->trophies() as $trophy) {
         // Fetch trophy data here for this specific $user
         $trophyEarned = $trophy->earned();
         /// and so on...
      }
   }
}

Yes, I understand how to retrieve earned trophies by user using:

foreach ($user->trophyTitles() as $trophyTitle) { foreach ($trophyTitle->trophyGroups() as $trophyGroup) { foreach ($trophyGroup->trophies() as $trophy) { $trophyEarned = $trophy->earned(); // ... } } }

From my testing, $trophyGroup in this context seems to be a UserTrophyGroup, which has earnedBronze(), progress(), etc., but it lacks the name() or iconUrl() methods that TrophyGroup provides.

So I want to confirm:
Should I combine both UserTrophyGroup and TrophyGroup by groupId() to build a full group object with both static and user-specific data?

Thanks again!

Yes, you need to combine both if you want to build a full group object with both static och user-specific data. I would suggest saving the static into a database and only get that data if you haven't already. Although, they can get be updated at times, but this is rare. Pre-PS5 can easily be checked against set_version if it's updated, since it seems to be a requirement to change this number if something is changed. This requirement seems to be dropped on PS5, and set_version is mostly always 01.00 on PS5.
