Steam Community Inventory Skill

Retrieve and browse a Steam user's inventory, and send/manage trade offers on steamcommunity.com.

Setup

1. Find your Steam ID (SteamID64):

- Go to your Steam profile page - If your URL is https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198012345678, your Steam ID is 76561198012345678 - If your URL uses a vanity name like https://steamcommunity.com/id/myname, visit steamid.io and paste your profile URL to get your SteamID64

1. Get your Steam Web API key:

- Go to https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey - Register a domain name (any value works, e.g., localhost) - Copy the API key shown on the page

1. Get your Steam session cookies (required for trade offers and bypassing inventory rate limits):

- Log in to steamcommunity.com in your browser - Open Developer Tools (F12) > Application tab > Cookies > https://steamcommunity.com - Copy the value of the steamLoginSecure cookie - Copy the value of the sessionid cookie

1. Set environment variables:

   export STEAM_ID="your-steamid64"
   export STEAM_API_KEY="your-api-key"
   export STEAM_COOKIES="steamLoginSecure=your-cookie-value"
   export STEAM_SESSION_ID="your-sessionid-cookie-value"

Usage

All commands use curl to hit the Steam Community inventory endpoint. The context ID is 2 for all standard game inventories.

Common App IDs

Get inventory for a game

Replace $APP_ID with the game's App ID (see table above). Context ID is 2 for all standard game inventories.

curl -s "https://steamcommunity.com/inventory/$STEAM_ID/$APP_ID/2?l=english&count=2000" \
  -H "Cookie: $STEAM_COOKIES" | jq '.'

Get CS2 inventory

curl -s "https://steamcommunity.com/inventory/$STEAM_ID/730/2?l=english&count=2000" \
  -H "Cookie: $STEAM_COOKIES" | jq '.'

Get a summary of items (names and quantities)

curl -s "https://steamcommunity.com/inventory/$STEAM_ID/730/2?l=english&count=2000" \
  -H "Cookie: $STEAM_COOKIES" | jq '[.descriptions[] | {market_hash_name, type}]'

Get item details (asset IDs mapped to descriptions)

curl -s "https://steamcommunity.com/inventory/$STEAM_ID/730/2?l=english&count=2000" \
  -H "Cookie: $STEAM_COOKIES" | jq '{assets: [.assets[] | {assetid, classid, instanceid, amount}], total: .total_inventory_count}'

Paginated fetch (for inventories over 2000 items)

The API returns a last_assetid field when there are more items. Pass it as start_assetid to get the next page:

curl -s "https://steamcommunity.com/inventory/$STEAM_ID/730/2?l=english&count=2000&start_assetid=$LAST_ASSET_ID" \
  -H "Cookie: $STEAM_COOKIES" | jq '.'

Check for more pages by looking at the more_items field in the response (equals 1 if there are more).

Response Format

The inventory endpoint returns JSON with these key fields:

Assets are linked to descriptions via classid + instanceid.

Notes

• Rate limits: The community endpoint is heavily rate-limited by IP. Using your own cookies bypasses this for your own inventory. Without cookies, expect IP bans after a few requests (cooldown ~6 hours).
• Spacing: If fetching multiple inventories or pages, wait at least 4 seconds between requests.
• count parameter: Max value is 5000, but 2000 is recommended to avoid issues.
• Context ID: Use 2 for all standard game inventories. Steam Community items (appid 753) also use context ID 6 for some item types.
• Private profiles: Inventory must be set to public, or you must be authenticated as the owner.

Trade Offers

Trade offers require an authenticated session (cookies) and a Steam Web API key. The sessionid cookie is sent as both a cookie and a POST body parameter.

Partner identification

Trade partners can be identified two ways:

1. By SteamID64 — e.g., 76561198012345678. Convert to a 32-bit account ID for the partner field: subtract 76561197960265728 from the SteamID64.
2. By trade URL — e.g., https://steamcommunity.com/tradeoffer/new/?partner=52079950&token=YDAlR4bC. The partner value is the 32-bit account ID. The token is needed when the partner is not on your friends list.

Send a trade offer

This sends items from your inventory to another user (and/or requests items from theirs). Each item requires its appid, contextid, and assetid (obtained from the inventory endpoint above).

The json_tradeoffer parameter is a JSON string describing what each side gives. The me object holds your items to give; the them object holds items you want to receive.

# Set trade parameters
PARTNER_ACCOUNT_ID="52079950"  # 32-bit account ID (from trade URL or SteamID64 - 76561197960265728)
PARTNER_STEAM_ID="76561198012345678"  # Full SteamID64 (= 76561197960265728 + PARTNER_ACCOUNT_ID)
TRADE_TOKEN="YDAlR4bC"         # From partner's trade URL (omit if partner is on your friends list)
TRADE_MESSAGE="Here's the trade we discussed"

# Build the json_tradeoffer payload
# me.assets = items YOU are giving, them.assets = items you WANT from them
JSON_TRADEOFFER='{
  "newversion": true,
  "version": 4,
  "me": {
    "assets": [
      {"appid": 730, "contextid": "2", "amount": 1, "assetid": "YOUR_ASSET_ID"}
    ],
    "currency": [],
    "ready": false
  },
  "them": {
    "assets": [
      {"appid": 730, "contextid": "2", "amount": 1, "assetid": "THEIR_ASSET_ID"}
    ],
    "currency": [],
    "ready": false
  }
}'

# Send with trade token (non-friend)
curl -s "https://steamcommunity.com/tradeoffer/new/send" \
  -X POST \
  -H "Cookie: sessionid=$STEAM_SESSION_ID; $STEAM_COOKIES" \
  -H "Referer: https://steamcommunity.com/tradeoffer/new/?partner=$PARTNER_ACCOUNT_ID&token=$TRADE_TOKEN" \
  -H "Origin: https://steamcommunity.com" \
  -d "sessionid=$STEAM_SESSION_ID" \
  -d "serverid=1" \
  -d "partner=$PARTNER_STEAM_ID" \
  --data-urlencode "tradeoffermessage=$TRADE_MESSAGE" \
  --data-urlencode "json_tradeoffer=$JSON_TRADEOFFER" \
  -d "captcha=" \
  --data-urlencode "trade_offer_create_params={\"trade_offer_access_token\":\"$TRADE_TOKEN\"}" \
  | jq '.'

To send to a friend (no token needed), omit the token from the Referer and set trade_offer_create_params to {}:

curl -s "https://steamcommunity.com/tradeoffer/new/send" \
  -X POST \
  -H "Cookie: sessionid=$STEAM_SESSION_ID; $STEAM_COOKIES" \
  -H "Referer: https://steamcommunity.com/tradeoffer/new/?partner=$PARTNER_ACCOUNT_ID" \
  -H "Origin: https://steamcommunity.com" \
  -d "sessionid=$STEAM_SESSION_ID" \
  -d "serverid=1" \
  -d "partner=$PARTNER_STEAM_ID" \
  --data-urlencode "tradeoffermessage=$TRADE_MESSAGE" \
  --data-urlencode "json_tradeoffer=$JSON_TRADEOFFER" \
  -d "captcha=" \
  -d "trade_offer_create_params={}" \
  | jq '.'

The response returns a tradeofferid on success:

{"tradeofferid": "1234567890", "needs_mobile_confirmation": true, "needs_email_confirmation": false}

Sending a gift (no items requested in return)

Set them.assets to an empty array []:

JSON_TRADEOFFER='{
  "newversion": true,
  "version": 4,
  "me": {
    "assets": [
      {"appid": 730, "contextid": "2", "amount": 1, "assetid": "YOUR_ASSET_ID"}
    ],
    "currency": [],
    "ready": false
  },
  "them": {
    "assets": [],
    "currency": [],
    "ready": false
  }
}'

Get trade offers (sent and received)

Uses the official Steam Web API with your API key.

curl -s "https://steamcommunity.com/tradeoffer/$TRADE_OFFER_ID/accept" \
  -X POST \
  -H "Cookie: sessionid=$STEAM_SESSION_ID; $STEAM_COOKIES" \
  -H "Referer: https://steamcommunity.com/tradeoffer/$TRADE_OFFER_ID/" \

  | jq '.response.trades'

Trade offer states reference

Trade offer notes

• Mobile confirmation: Most trade offers require Steam Mobile Authenticator confirmation. The send response will indicate needs_mobile_confirmation: true if so.
• Trade holds: Accounts without Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator enabled for 7+ days will have a 15-day trade hold on all trades.
• Partner's inventory: To see what the partner has available to trade, fetch their inventory the same way as yours (using their SteamID64 instead of $STEAM_ID). Their inventory must be public or you must be friends.
• The partner field: The send endpoint expects the full SteamID64 in the partner POST parameter. The trade URL's partner query parameter is the 32-bit account ID.
• Cookie expiry: The sessionid and steamLoginSecure cookies expire when your Steam session ends. Refresh them from your browser when they stop working.
