Questions
FAQ
How do I use the Steam Search API?
Send a POST request to https://api.sandbase.ai/v1/api/steam/search with your SandBase API key in the Authorization header (Bearer) and the parameters as a JSON body. You can also try it in the Playground on this page without writing code.
How much does the Steam Search API cost?
$0.00015 per call, billed from your SandBase balance. You are only charged for calls you make; there is no subscription.
What parameters does the Steam Search API accept?
Required: q (string). Optional: country (string), timeout (number) and language (string). The Parameters table and the Playground on this page list every field.
What does the Steam Search API return?
A JSON result. This endpoint runs asynchronously, so the response tells you how to fetch the finished result.
Do I need a Steam developer account or API key?
No. Steam Search runs through SandBase, so one SandBase API key covers this endpoint and every other API and model in the catalog. You do not need to apply for Steam API access separately.
