Steam Account Linking

Configure Steam account linking on Servycore — verify Steam group membership, automate in-game rewards, and manage player authentication for game servers

Account Linking 2 min read

Steam linking allows you to verify that players are members of your Steam group before granting in-game rewards.

Configuration

Navigate to Panel > Your Project > Providers > Steam.

Steam Provider Settings

Settings

Setting Description
Steam Group ID The numeric ID of your Steam group (3-25 characters). Found in your group's URL or settings
Steam Group Link The full URL to your Steam group page
Check Group Membership When enabled, Servycore verifies the player is in your Steam group

Finding Your Steam Group ID

  1. Go to your Steam group page
  2. The group ID is the number in the URL (e.g., steamcommunity.com/groups/yourgroup)
  3. Alternatively, use a Steam group ID lookup tool with your group's vanity URL

How It Works

  1. A player clicks Link Steam on your project page
  2. They sign in with their Steam account
  3. Servycore checks if they're a member of your Steam group (if enabled)
  4. Auth commands are executed on your game servers
  5. The player's Steam profile info is stored for display

Notes

  • On a Rust server of the Control Center, a linked player's Steam group status is checked again when they join, if it was last checked a day ago or more: rewards are given to a player who qualifies since, and taken back from one who no longer does. Commands only run when the status changed.
  • Steam group membership checks depend on the group's privacy settings
  • Public groups work best for automated verification
  • Private groups may require manual membership verification
