I have no idea what this means but it sounds fascinating and extremely useful, so thanks for doing that. :P

AWESOME!

Ah, pretty useful for those that has projects that requires pulling info from sg. Good job!

Nice work! Looks like we have been working on similar projects :-)
How do you check whether a game was free?
Do you have an example app where you used the API?

add a donate to keep the host alive option for script users :P i know you don't and won't accept donations for your scripts, but for hosting i think several script users would love to assist.

i can't always assist, but certainly would love to help when i can to keep the host alive if you'd be willing to accept it ofc. xD

Nice
Looking forward to your API

Oh so this is the secret thing you were working on. :P Looking great, I look forward to seeing it finished. :) I remember someone tried to make one a while ago but ended up giving up. :/

I've been toying around with this API :) Setting-up was a bit of a struggle, but I've managed to get it working. Some feedback, the first is why are you using your pre-generated session_id? You could just ask for a new random anonymous session_id (when none was given). The code below is what I'm now using for that (not the best piece of work, but it works ^^).

<?php
// Get a fresh session
$context = stream_context_create(
    array(
        'http' => array(
            'follow_location' => false
        )
    )
);
$html = file_get_contents('https://www.steamgifts.com/', false, $context);

// Parse the cookie data
$cookie = $http_response_header[9]; // element number might vary per server?
$cookieParts = explode(';', substr($cookie, strpos($cookie, 'PHPSESSID=')+10));
echo $cookieParts[0];

Of course, notifications etc. wouldn't work then, but I'm looking to use it for a group management tool :) I've added you on Steam for another point. Didn't get to use and review all the code yet, but for now it looks very useful, thanks for your work.

Looks good. I saw this a couple weeks ago but never paid much attention to it. But its now bookmarked for when I start on something in a few weeks. This may come in handy. I've only given it a quick look over for now.

For now. IUsers looks useful to me right away. I'm manually getting some data currently as I only do it rarely. As such I've not bothered to write code to return the data. Your already returning it. It would be easy call your api to get what I'm doing manually.

Note. Your examples in the docs for "IsFree" return errors. This might just be the game ids in question and not your code. All I've done so far is click each example in your various sections to see what kind of data is being returned.

Bump ^^ Great tool for group management, reading out group members and giveaway information.

Please just accept the love people want to give you. :p We are grateful for you and want to show it.

Thanks for the API, it works like a charm.. :3

Do you know how much load this would put on the server if used? I remember asking years ago about an official API. If it doesnt put much load on the SG server(s), I will definitely use this.

Hi Sighery :) The API is still working great, we (Playing Appreciated) are so happy with the GetGivWinners method! It saved us, without exaggerating, hours of time already that we would otherwise be spending on manually adding winners to giveaways! :)

We'd like to automate things a bit further, which is why I'd like to make a feature request:
Would it be possible to add a GetGivGroups method to the API? This would be useful for us so that our tool can check if the winner is (also) a member of other groups on giveaways where other groups were included. Ideally we'd get the included groups steamid's (gid) for that, in order to retrieve that groups memberlist and check if the winner is a member there (too). Getting the gid might be a bit more difficult as the group information for a giveaway only provides SteamGifts ID for the group by default, which would also be fine (since we can then manually add the corresponding gid if needed). Hope I've explained it good enough. ^^

I hope you could are willing to consider making such a method and can find time to do so, and that other people who are using your API and/or are member of any of the groups who are thankfully using your API are willing to second this request. :)
