you need to be more specific about what you need, is it for a specific game?

Gamble Aug 8, 2019 @ 2:35am

nah it is for any game any item that can be traded @MalikQayum

MalikQayum Aug 8, 2019 @ 2:40am

then answer would be the assetid

Gamble Aug 8, 2019 @ 2:41am

hey it says old assetid in google search does that mean it changes when the item is traded to other account --> https://imgur.com/q8Cd5Fe

https://steamcommunity.com/inventory/76561198359990793/753/6?l=english&count=5000

{ "appid":753," contextid":"6", "assetid":"8723530993", "classid":"1107427531", "instanceid":"246376138", "amount":"1" }

you can test it quickly and trade that specific item to an alternative account, then check the endpoint if the item still has that assetid.

Well, what about the instance ID?

then you won't be able to get check it, this mean the endpoint does not support it and you will have to resort to apis.
(which is why i asked to begin with if this was for a specific game.)

there is public api that has support for some interfaces:

IEconItems_205790
IEconItems_221540
IEconItems_238460
IEconItems_440
IEconItems_570
IEconItems_583950
IEconItems_620
IEconItems_730

under these we can access the method > GetPlayerItems and the version v000, example:

https://api.steampowered.com/IEconItems_440/GetPlayerItems/v0001/?key=<apikey>&steamid=76561198359990793

{ "result": { "status": 1, "num_backpack_slots": 50, "items": [ { "id": 5519689580, "original_id": 5519689580, "defindex": 5803, "level": 20, "quality": 6, "inventory": 3221225473, "quantity": 1, "origin": 0, "attributes": [ { "defindex": 2046, "value": 1065353216, "float_value": 1 }, { "defindex": 187, "value": 1119354880, "float_value": 92 }, { "defindex": 528, "value": 1167910912, "float_value": 5021 } ] }, { "id": 5618107103, "original_id": 5618107103, "defindex": 166, "level": 5, "quality": 6, "inventory": 0, "quantity": 1, "origin": 0, "flag_cannot_trade": true, "attributes": [ { "defindex": 143, "value": 1486737536, "float_value": 1388150609936384 }, { "defindex": 746, "value": 1065353216, "float_value": 1 }, { "defindex": 292, "value": 1115684864, "float_value": 64 }, { "defindex": 388, "value": 1115684864, "float_value": 64 }, { "defindex": 153, "value": 1065353216, "float_value": 1 } ] }, { "id": 5618107209, "original_id": 5618107209, "defindex": 5849, "level": 1, "quality": 6, "inventory": 3221225473, "quantity": 1, "origin": 0, "style": 0, "attributes": [ { "defindex": 2046, "value": 1065353216, "float_value": 1 }, { "defindex": 187, "value": 1120665600, "float_value": 102 }, { "defindex": 744, "value": 1, "float_value": 1.40129846432481707e-45 }, { "defindex": 528, "value": 1169604608, "float_value": 5848 }, { "defindex": 731, "value": 1065353216, "float_value": 1 }, { "defindex": 815, "value": 1, "float_value": 1.40129846432481707e-45 } ] }, { "id": 5800133727, "original_id": 5800133727, "defindex": 5867, "level": 1, "quality": 6, "inventory": 3221225473, "quantity": 1, "origin": 0, "style": 0, "attributes": [ { "defindex": 2046, "value": 1065353216, "float_value": 1 }, { "defindex": 187, "value": 1121189888, "float_value": 106 }, { "defindex": 744, "value": 1, "float_value": 1.40129846432481707e-45 }, { "defindex": 528, "value": 1169641472, "float_value": 5866 }, { "defindex": 731, "value": 1065353216, "float_value": 1 }, { "defindex": 815, "value": 1, "float_value": 1.40129846432481707e-45 } ] }, { "id": 5800443238, "original_id": 5800443238, "defindex": 356, "level": 1, "quality": 6, "inventory": 3221225473, "quantity": 1, "origin": 0, "attributes": [ { "defindex": 796, "value": "10 0 -6" }, { "defindex": 217, "value": 1065353216, "float_value": 1 }, { "defindex": 125, "value": 3260809216, "float_value": -55 }, { "defindex": 551, "value": 1065353216, "float_value": 1 } ] } ] } }

here we can access the original_id which can be used to what you want to achieve but this is only going to work with the appids that has the interfaces supported.

EDIT: for some reason artifact "IEconItems_583950" doesn't have the method > GetPlayerItems. Perhaps valve didn't bother with it, seeing how it wasn't a big success.

no because as i mentioned IEconItems_753 does not exist, so that means you won't be able to get the orignal_id.

#13

Gamble Aug 8, 2019 @ 2:00pm

so what about profile backgrounds??

community items (emoticons,backgrounds, trading cards, coupons, item rewards, gifts) all belong to the 753, and there is no support for the IEconItems_753.

question is more why it matters to you, that you get that same exact emoticon back.. and not just another one, example:

if you give me Battle-Car "Road Hog" emoticon (the one you linked), let's call yours X-Battle-Car "Road Hog" and mine Y-Battle-Car "Road Hog" now you give yours and i have X-Battle-Car "Road Hog" and Y-Battle-Car "Road Hog", right?
so now you want it back, so why does it matter if you get X- or Y- ?
You still get the card back right, it is just not the one you sent, but it is identically in every way.
