There is many way to configure Steam Achievements:

  • With the API key & public profile
  • With the API key & private profile
  • Without the API key & public profile
  • Without the API key & private profile

The API key

The API key must be defined in the settings of the SteamLibrary plugin.

You can get your API key: https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey

Profile public

To set up your Steam profile in public: https://steamcommunity.com/my/edit/settings

This is necessary to retrieve certain information through the Steam API: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/webapi/ISteamUserStats

Without the API key

If you don't have an API key, you must indicate it in the plugin settings.

Private profile

If your profil is private, you have two steps to do.

  • Indicate in plugin settings.
  • You must use the Authenticate method in the SteamLibrary plugin (even if you are already authenticated).
