# SaveStateToPlayerPrefs(string)

Method in [DialogueRunner](/2.2/api/csharp/yarn.unity/yarn.unity.dialoguerunner.md)

## Summary

Saves all variables in the Dialogue Runner's variable storage into the `PlayerPrefs` object.

```csharp
public void SaveStateToPlayerPrefs(string SaveKey = "YarnBasicSave")
```

## Remarks

This method serializes all variables in [VariableStorage](/2.2/api/csharp/yarn.unity/yarn.unity.dialoguerunner/yarn.unity.dialoguerunner.variablestorage.md) into a string containing JSON, and then stores that string in the `PlayerPrefs` object under the key `SaveKey`.

The stored information can be restored via the [LoadStateFromPlayerPrefs(string)](/2.2/api/csharp/yarn.unity/yarn.unity.dialoguerunner/yarn.unity.dialoguerunner.loadstatefromplayerprefs.md) method.
