Steam API resources and developer guides

Find the right WOK guide for a real integration task: choose an API key, identify a Steam user, read any supported public game inventory, inspect Rust stats, value items or handle rate limits. Each guide links to working endpoints and limitations.

Which games can I request?

All eight named games use the same public inventory endpoint. The game key changes; item price coverage varies by source and item.

Game guide	Steam AppID	game parameter	Observed price sources
CS2	`730`	`cs2`	Steam Market and configured marketplace observations
DOTA 2	`570`	`dota2`	Steam Market and configured marketplace observations
RUST	`252490`	`rust`	Steam Market and configured marketplace observations
TF2	`440`	`tf2`	Steam Market and configured marketplace observations
PUBG	`578080`	`pubg`	Steam Market observations
s&box	`590830`	`sandbox`	Steam Market observations
Unturned	`304930`	`unturned`	Steam Market observations
PAYDAY 2	`218620`	`payday2`	Steam Market observations

Call GET /v1/inventory?game=rust&steam_id=... with your WOK key, replacing rust with any key above. Price and history endpoints accept these named keys, but a valid item can be unpriced and historical observations begin only when WOK records them. Numeric AppIDs are supported for public inventory reads without a named game's price catalog.

Steam account profiles, names, level, friends and visible games do not take a game key. Rust also has separate player statistics, achievements and playtime endpoints. Read the profile guide for public name history, and the visibility guide for private fields and unknown values. Price history explains why an item's older dates may have no observations.

Start with Steam and WOK

Pick the correct credential and request contract before writing a client.

Read and value inventories

Build a public inventory lookup, then add pricing only where data is available.

Games and market data

Use a game-specific guide when its pricing or item metadata differs.

Operate and migrate

Handle limits and compare providers before switching production traffic.
