Undocumented Steam storefront lookups — app details by ID

🎮 GamesUNMONITOREDchecked 28 min ago
AUTH NONECORS ✗AGENT ✓HTTPS ✓COMMERCIAL ?

Steam's internal storefront endpoint returns rich details for any app by ID: name, type, pricing, free-to-play flag, descriptions, and media. It's undocumented and keyless but IP-rate-limited, so cache and go easy. No CORS header is sent, so use it server-side.

Steam: common questions

Is Steam free to use?

Yes — Steam is a free games API. Free tier: Free, no API key. Whether the free tier allows commercial use is unclear — check the provider docs.

Does Steam need an API key?

No — Steam needs no API key or signup. You can call it straight away; rate limits still apply (Unpublished (undocumented endpoint; IP rate-limited)).

Can I call Steam from the browser?

Not directly — Steam doesn't send browser-friendly CORS headers, so call it from a server or proxy instead. Copy the curl or Python snippet on this page to get started.

Is Steam up right now?

As of our last scheduled check, Steam is unmonitored. We re-probe it every sweep — the status badge and uptime chart above always show the latest.
