Steam ID Guide

Steam ID Guide

Steam accounts can be represented in several formats. Endpoint factories normalize supported input formats to Steam64 internally.

Common formats

Format	Example
Steam64	76561197960287930
Steam2	STEAM_0:0:11101
Steam3	[U:1:22202]
Account ID / Steam32	22202

Steam64 is the safest format for Web API calls.

Use IDs with endpoint clients

$player = $steam->player('76561197960287930');
$user = $steam->user('STEAM_0:0:11101');

Convert an ID

$steam64 = $steam->convertId('STEAM_0:0:11101', 'id64');
$steam2 = $steam->convertId($steam64, 'id32');
$steam3 = $steam->convertId($steam64, 'id3');

Supported output aliases include:

• ID64, id64, 64;
• ID32, id32, 32;
• ID3, id3, 3.

Without a requested output format, the converter returns all supported representations.

Multiple users

$players = $steam->user([
    76561197960287930,
    76561197968575517,
])->GetPlayerSummaries();

Validation

Unsupported or malformed values raise TeemoCell\SteamWebApi\Exceptions\UnrecognizedId. Validate user input and do not silently substitute another account.

Vanity names such as example-name are not numeric Steam IDs. Resolve them first with ResolveVanityURL() from Steam user endpoints.
