These functions can be called with the inventory result handle (from previous section) to get additional information:

Dynamic Properties

This set of functions can be used to author items dynamic properties:

Constants

These are the constants used by this API:

Structures

These are the structures used by this API:


Back To Top

steam_inventory_consume_item

This function consumes items from a user's inventory. If the quantity of the given item goes to zero, it is permanently removed.

Warning

You must call steam_inventory_result_destroy on the returned async result ID when you are done with it.

Tip

A wrapper around ConsumeItem.

This function operates asynchronously, which means that it does not immediately return the requested result. Instead, upon completion of the task, it will trigger the Steam Async Event.


Syntax:

steam_inventory_consume_item(item_id, quantity)
Argument Type Description
item_id Int64 The steam_inventory_item_id to consume.
quantity Real The number of items in that stack to consume.

Returns:

Real


Triggers:

Steam Async Event

Key Type Description
event_type String The string value "inventory_result_ready"
success Boolean Whether the async action succeeded
result InventoryResultStatus The status code as returned by steam_inventory_result_get_status
handle Real The associated async result ID, which can be used to tell apart what result this event is for.

Example:

steam_inventory_consume_item(player.apple, 1);

The code sample above will try to consume one item (apple, steam_inventory_item_id), and trigger an async event with the task result.

steam_inventory_get_item_price

After a successful call to steam_inventory_request_prices, you can call this method to get the pricing for a specific item definition.

Tip

A wrapper around GetItemPrice.


Syntax:

steam_inventory_get_item_price(item)
Argument Type Description
item Real The steam_inventory_item_def to get the price of.

Returns:

Int64


Example:

var _price = steam_inventory_get_item_price(item);

The code sample above will return you the price for the specified item definition. For a more detailed example on using the function check steam_inventory_request_prices.



Back To Top

steam_inventory_get_items_with_prices

After a successful call to steam_inventory_request_prices, you can call this method to get all the prices for applicable item definitions.

Tip

A wrapper around GetItemsWithPrices.


Syntax:

steam_inventory_get_items_with_prices(item_def, price, base_price)
Argument Type Description
item_def Real The steam_inventory_item_def representing the item type
price Int64 The price of the item definition
base_price Int64 The base price of the item definition ✴️ WINDOWS ONLY

Returns:

Array of Struct


Example:

var _array = steam_inventory_get_items_with_prices(inv_result);
if(array_length(_array) > 0)
{
    var _item_def = _array[0].item_def;
    var _price = _array[0].price;
    var base_price = _array[0].base_price;
    show_debug_message("Found at one item that costs: " + string(_price));
}

The code above will get items with prices and if the returning array size is greater than zero (meaning there is at least one item with a configured price) it prints to the console the item's price.

steam_inventory_request_eligible_promo_item_defs

This function requests the list of "eligible" promo items that can be manually granted to the given user.

Tip

A wrapper around RequestEligiblePromoItemDefinitionsIDs.

This function operates asynchronously, which means that it does not immediately return the requested result. Instead, upon completion of the task, it will trigger the Steam Async Event.


Syntax:

steam_inventory_request_eligible_promo_item_defs(user_id)

if (async_load[? "event_type"] != "inventory_request_prices") exit;

// Early exit if handle doesn't match
if (async_load[? "success"])
{
    show_debug_message("The currency being used is: " + async_load[? "currency"]);

    _var price = steam_inventory_get_item_price(global.swordId);
}

The code above matches the event type and if so shows the currency being used. It also gets the price for a specific item using the steam_inventory_get_item_price function.

Back To Top

steam_inventory_add_promo_items

This function takes an array of Item Definitions and grants the user multiple items. Item Definitions are integer numbers ranging from 1 to 999999999. Values below the range are invalid and values above the range are reserved.

Warning

You must call steam_inventory_result_destroy on the returned async result ID when you are done with it.

Tip

A wrapper around AddPromoItems.

This function operates asynchronously, which means that it does not immediately return the requested result. Instead, upon completion of the task, it will trigger the Steam Async Event.


Syntax:

The above code will grant the user with an multiple items specified in an array format. For an example on how to use the Steam Async Event to read the callback response, refer to the function steam_inventory_get_all_items.



Back To Top

steam_inventory_exchange_items

This function grants one item in exchange for a set of other items.

Warning

You must call steam_inventory_result_destroy on the returned async result ID when you are done with it.

Tip

A wrapper around ExchangeItems.

This function operates asynchronously, which means that it does not immediately return the requested result. Instead, upon completion of the task, it will trigger the Steam Async Event.


Syntax:

steam_inventory_exchange_items(create_arr, destroy_arr)
Argument Type Description
create_arr Array of InventoryItemCreationData An array of structs representing items to be created
destroy_arr Array of InventoryItemConsumptionData An array of structs representing items to be consumed

Returns:

Real


Triggers:

Steam Async Event

Key Type Description
event_type String The string value "inventory_result_ready"
success Boolean Whether the async action succeeded
result InventoryResultStatus The status code as returned by steam_inventory_result_get_status
handle Real The associated async result ID, which can be used to tell apart what result this event is for.

Example:

var _arrayDestroy = [
    { item_id: player.cursed_sword, quantity: 1 },
    { item_id: player.apple, quantity: 7 },
];

var _arrayCreate = [
    { item_def: global.holy_sword, quantity: 1 },
    { item_def: global.orange, quantity: 2 }
];

steam_inventory_exchange_items(_arrayCreate, _arrayDestroy);

Given the provided items to be destroyed and the items to be create the code above will perform an exchange removing the current items (arrayDestroy) from the inventory and adding the new (arrayCreate) in their place. The result for this task can be caught inside the Steam Async Event with the following code:

// Early exit if event type doesn't match
if (async_load[? "event_type"] != "inventory_result_ready") exit;

// Early exit if handle doesn't match
if (async_load[? "handle"] != handle) exit;

// Early exit if handle doesn't match
if (async_load[? "success"])
{
    show_debug_message("Exchange was a success");
}
else
{
    show_debug_message("Exchange failed");
}

// Don't forget to clean the ununsed handle
steam_inventory_result_destroy(handle);
handle = undefined;

The code above matches the event type and checks if the handle ID matches the one that initialized the request and if so we print a debug message with the success of the task. In the end we also use a call to steam_inventory_result_destroy to make sure we dispose and free all the used memory.

This function starts retrieving all items in the current user's inventory.

Warning

You must call steam_inventory_result_destroy on the returned async result ID when you are done with it.

Tip

A wrapper around GetAllItems.

This function operates asynchronously, which means that it does not immediately return the requested result. Instead, upon completion of the task, it will trigger the Steam Async Event.


Syntax:

steam_inventory_get_all_items()

Returns:

Real


Triggers:

Steam Async Event

Key Type Description
event_type String The string value "inventory_result_ready"
success Boolean Whether the async action succeeded
The InventoryResultStatus status code as returned by steam_inventory_result_get_status
handle Real The associated async result ID, which can be used to tell apart what result this event is for.

✴️ OPTIONAL

The asynchronous event presented below is only triggered when the result is newer/fresher than the last known result. It will not trigger if the inventory hasn't changed, or if results from two overlapping calls are reversed in flight and the earlier result is already known to be stale/out-of-date. The regular callback will still be triggered immediately afterwards; this is an additional notification for your convenience.

Key Type Description
event_type String The string value "inventory_full_update"
success Boolean Whether the async action succeeded
handle Real The associated async result ID, which can be used to tell apart what result this event is for.

Example:

handle = steam_inventory_get_all_items();

The code above will start a query for all the items in current users inventory. The result for this task can be caught inside the Steam Async Event with the following code:

// Early exit if event type doesn't match
if (async_load[? "event_type"] != "inventory_result_ready") exit;

// Early exit if handle doesn't match
if (async_load[? "handle"] != handle) exit;

// Early exit if handle doesn't match
if (async_load[? "success"])
{
    var _items = steam_inventory_result_get_items(handle);

    for (var i = 0; i < array_length(_items); i++)
    {
        var _item = _items[i];
        // access item data for each entry
        //
        // _item.item_id
        // _item.item_def
        // _item.quantity
        // _item.flags
    }
}

// Don't forget to clean the ununsed handle
steam_inventory_result_destroy(handle);
handle = undefined;

The code above matches the event type and checks if the handle ID matches the one that initialized the request and if so gets the items from the result using the function steam_inventory_result_get_items and loops through them. In the end we also use a call to steam_inventory_result_destroy to make sure we dispose and free all the used memory.

For an example on how to use the Steam Async Event to read the callback response, refer to the function steam_inventory_get_all_items.



Back To Top

steam_inventory_trigger_item_drop

This function triggers an item drop if the user has played a long enough period of time. This period can be customized in two places:

  • At the application level within Inventory Service: Playtime Item Grants. This will automatically apply to all "playtimegenerator" items that do not specify any overrides.
  • In an individual "playtimegenerator" item definition. The settings would take precedence over any application-level settings.

Only item definitions which are marked as "playtime item generators" can be spawned.

}
else
{
    show_debug_message("Exchange failed");
}

// Don't forget to clean the unused handle
steam_inventory_result_destroy(handle);
handle = undefined;

In the code above we have an example of a asynchronous callback that generates a result handle by the end of which we execute a call to steam_inventory_result_destroy to make sure we dispose and free all the used memory.
