Steam IDs

What is a Steam ID

Your Steam ID is a unique 17-digit number that identifies your Steam account. Steam Stats needs this to fetch your specific gaming data.

  • SteamID64: a 17-digit numeric ID
  • Custom Steam ID: an alphanumeric URL slug (for Workshop stats)

Find Your Steam ID

  1. Open Steam on your computer and ensure you're logged in
  2. Click your username in the top right corner of the Steam client

  3. Click "Account details" from the dropdown menu Steam Client Username

  4. Copy your Steam ID from the account page:

    • Look for "[username]'s Account" at the top
    • Your 17-digit Steam ID will be displayed below it
    • Double Click or manually select the number to copy

What is a Custom Steam ID

Your Custom Steam ID is the personalized part of your Steam profile URL (e.g., /id/yourcustomname/). This is required only if you want Workshop stats.

How to Find Your Custom ID

Method 1: From Your Profile URL

  1. Go to your Steam profile (in client or browser)

  2. Inspect the URL:

    • If it reads /id/<customname>/, your custom ID is <customname>.
    • If it reads /profiles/<numbers>/, you have not set a custom ID.
