Just won a game and trying to sync the Steam account. It's usually friends only so I switched to public before sync, but SG insists that it's not public. Tried several times already. Also checked in a different browser, my games list is visible there without logging in.

EDIT: Managed to get synced now, though not sure how reliable it works. (Took me two final tries.)

Yes, same here!
No, must be something on your end.
Potato!

Same. Synced with Steam 9 hours ago, but now I can't. I didn't touch Steam settings at all.
upd: After 2 hours synchronized successfully. Magic.

If I keep trying, I can sync.
But it doesnt update my groups.
Steam says I'm in a SG group, SG says I'm not.

Even tho I can get "synced 1 minute ago", theres still a spinning wheel on the top bar saying dont close this window. I've left it spinning for over an hour.

I had this issue this morning. I clicked on my Steam settings to check (yes, everything was as it should be), and then tried again. The second time worked.

So you were added to a SG group the second time?

No. SG Sync wasn't working for me until after I reaffirmed my Steam settings.

Issue is still present; sometimes the API returns an empty response, sometimes it says An error occurred while processing your request and other times it just does as expected.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Clearing browser cache with CCleaner and then logging in again fixed the issue for me

ITAD sync seems broken too, though whether that's the site or Steam who knows.

Yep, same here. Can't sync and update my wishlist yesterday, can't do it today, no matter how many times I try. It happens often nowadays, but it usually takes a few tries, not tens of tries.

I just cleared all of my Steam and Steamgifts cookies in my browser, logged back in on Steam then Steamgifts, tried to sync again, didn't work. Went to change my Steam profile settings to "friends only", waited a moment, changed it back to "public" and tried to sync again and it worked.

Not sure if this will work for you as well but if it's still not working and you haven't tried this maybe it'll do the trick for you as well. =)

6days and still unable to synchronize, tried from multiple browsers (even downloaded a browser never used before, cause deleting cookies was a no go) but it all resulted in nothing..... just a few hours to go before 7 days and perhaps issues in giveaways i joined that are group based...

As for deleting cookies, you don't have to delete all cookies, just look for Steam and Steamgifts in particular, even though, it didn't really help the issue when I tried deleting them. For me, it worked to simply switch my Steam profile to friends only for a minute or two and then switch it back to public

I've been public for as long as I can remember, but it still insists I'm private. Sweet job, Steam.

ETA: Tried syncing it right after posting. Worked on the first try, after not working for three tries before commenting. Guess the squeaky wheel gets the grease?

I went ahead and reported it to Steam via their Wiki-page, however that looks pretty dead. Anyone here that has SteamWorks access that can report this issue to Steam there? (if it not already reported there in the discussions)

Anybody using Archi Steam Farm? Turning it off worked for me.

Edit: Nope. Looks like it was just a random fluke.
