[Degenerate Nic-0]

So. im trying to create my own trading bot. However im just messing around with the api at the moment. only thing is i cant manage to find how to get GetTradeOffers to return some data. http://api.steampowered.com/IEconService/GetTradeOffers/v1/?key=<My Key> is what i am using. i just get a blank response back. Any help?

https://api.steampowered.com/IEconService/GetTradeOffers/v1/?key=[APIKEY]

&format=json
&get_sent_offers=true
&get_received_offers=true
&get_descriptions=false
&active_only=false
&historical_only=true

as explained in the documentation either the get_sent_offers or get_received_offers has to be set.

https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_Web_API/IEconService#GetTradeOffers_.28v1.29

few examples of how your GET should somewhat look like:

//get_sent_offers
https://api.steampowered.com/IEconService/GetTradeOffers/v1/?key=[APIKEY]&format=json&get_sent_offers=true

//get_received_offers
https://api.steampowered.com/IEconService/GetTradeOffers/v1/?key=[APIKEY]&format=json&get_received_offers=true

//everything....
https://api.steampowered.com/IEconService/GetTradeOffers/v1/?key=[APIKEY]&format=json&get_sent_offers=1&get_received_offers=1&get_descriptions=0&active_only=0&historical_only=0&time_historical_cutoff=15


also if you are using a api key from another account of yours u should also know that it will only return data from the account of which api key u are using:

This API gets a list of trade offers for the account associated with the WebAPI key. You cannot call this API for accounts other than your own.

Hi!
Try to remove an ampersand. You have: "v0001/?&key="; it must be: "v0001/?key="
Also you need to correct this: get_sent_offers (and you have "get_send_offers")! Sent not send!

I have the same problem. Api key is valid bat response is empty

Try to use 1 and 0 instead of true and false for boolean values.
For example instead of:
http://api.steampowered.com/IEconService/GetTradeOffers/v0001/?key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&get_send_offers=true
Use:
http://api.steampowered.com/IEconService/GetTradeOffers/v0001/?key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&get_send_offers=1
