How do I load BuddyPress functions?

This is probably a dumb question, but how do I load BuddyPress functions in a custom page?

I’ve created a custom page template in WordPress, and had expected that I can access bp functions (such as bp_displayed_user_domain() in that page. But it’s not working, so I assume I have to include a file or call a function to access BuddyPress functions.

Can anyone help me out with how to access BP functions from a custom template?

bp_displayed_user_domain() only works on profile pages.
Try using bp_loggedin_user_domain()

D’oh, I wanted a generic testing function and that obviously wouldn’t work in that context.

However, I did change it to the function you suggested and it’s still not outputting data. There must be a missing step in loading and making BuddyPress functions available in my own custom template pages.

Double d’oh! I wasn’t logged in when I tested it just now. I was right, it was a dumb question. Thanks Shane!
