Steps
Enable Matchmaker in the Unity Dashboard under Gaming Services > Multiplayer and configure a queue and matchmaking rules
Use the Multiplayer Services SDK (Unity 6+) or call the Matchmaker v2 REST API directly to create a ticket with player attributes
Poll the ticket status endpoint until it reports an assignment with allocated server connection info
For server-authoritative attributes like skill rating, authenticate as a Service Account so a backend can create tickets on a player's behalf
Handle ticket expiration and cancellation for players who leave the queue before a match is found
Known gotchas
Ticket creation from an untrusted client can't be trusted for skill/rank values -- use Service Account auth from a backend to inject authoritative attributes
Polling too aggressively against the ticket status endpoint can hit rate limits; use the SDK's built-in backoff or a reasonable poll interval
