Steam Api

[klaasnikov]

Hello, I want to build a site but I need an api key. I saw you need to enter your domain name, but I don't have a domain name yet because I want to develop and test it local. Any ideas on how to get a key?

Please fill out the form:
http://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey

Before you do, give this a read:
http://steamcommunity.com/dev/apiterms

EDIT: Since it's local, give this a read:

But to fill out the form I need to have a domain, isn't there another way?

Well, it does state this

Obtaining an Steam Web API Key

All use of the Steam Web API requires the use of an API Key.

All use.

thanks, this works. im just trying to generate an API key that Steam Inventory Helper is requesting so it can access my inventory/account. This worked wonderfully. Thank you
