What do you want it for? Did someone tell you to make a key?

But whatever the answer to that question may be, no you're not the only one; has been reported a few times over the last week or so. If not mistaken the interface was adjusted at that time to only allow creation of an API-key when the mobile authenticator is active on the account, and with your seemingly very useful debugging information, appears someone may have misplaced or forgotten a bracket somewhere while doing so.

Not sure what the best way would be to be sure that someone from Steam sees this...

I'm developing a FiveM server and I need it to use the steam hex as identifier for the characters of my players

I already opened a ticket, but it was closed because "Steam support does not provide assistance with the Steam Web API"

I do not know what that "developer console" you're showing is a console of but if the reported syntax error is not your-sides guess you'll need to hope for this to be noticed here. I don't believe there's a better (public) way of contacting Steam development.

It has in any case as said been reported that API-key creation is failing for some, which I assume the same thing as what you are reporting here, but come to think of it I also don't in fact know that so I'll otherwise shut up.

the developer console in the screenshot is the google chrome console as you can clearly see there is a problem with Steam's js, I hope someone from Steam/Valve will see this problem as soon as possible as I have not been able to develop my server for several days due to this problem

Works for me. You do know you have to approve it with Steam Guard now.

Yup, I could only make an APIkey when I approved it with Steamguard.

This still isn't fixed, even after confirming it on the auth I get sent back to the page with no API key created...

The auth just doesn't send for the api creation. I get it for logins, but the api key seems broken. I need it for Vortex, and it was working, but the api I originally created stopped working. I revoked and tried to make another, and here we are.

Anyone solved this problem. I am at the same situation. Very annoying

I fixed it by creating a new API key with the mobile phone that has my steam auth on it. In my case its an iPhone, so I went into the safari browser and logged in there and it worked.

[SOLVED} Had the same issue: Green button "Register" doesn't respond.
Typed domain name: steam
Solved the issue
