Get players names in server using Steamworks Web API?

[El_Memo_K]

I am trying to query servers using the Steamworks Web API, and I would like to know if it is possible to get a list of players currently in a server.

It is possible to get this list using the A2S requests using server queries (https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Server_queries), but I would like to know if Steamworks Web API can also do that.

So far I have managed to get the server name, map, and number of players with https://api.steampowered.com/IGameServersService/GetServerList/v1/ but this does not give the list of players.

Thanks!

Don't think any Steamworks API will give the names of players connected to a server.

I don't know of any that do, and just the requirements for it to happen seem like they would be too costly for any benefit - either the web api would perform an A2S query on your behalf (which would not be great since they could be abused, and you could just do the A2S query yourself anyway so doesn't make sense to need it) or the server would have to update the web api in the same way as it does for server name, map, and number of players, which would be a ton of extra data needed.

That list of severs also just looks like matchmaking servers and nothing else - what was the purpose / use of the data you want ?

Steam query can do that..
Long time ago i did that using rconed library (this one is for java), i managed to get all the information from "status" query and "stats" query on an l4d2 server, any information you could get using server commands (like rcon or using directly into server console).
Including sourcemod plugins, some configs, and such..

http://rconed.sourceforge.net/

You can get some libraries to deal with server communications..

Either rcon or a2s will work, but not steamworks api

Thank you, the reason is that I noticed that some servers do the Steam API query, but do not perform the A2S query.

Thanks! Sadly, I'd need the RCON password to make it work.

Do you mean only the playercount or the query as a whole?
Because for the playercount to work the server needs to have a proper setting:
host_players_show needs to be set to 1 or 2. If set to 0 it doesn't show.
