The steam sensor platform will allow you to track the online status of public Steam accounts.
{% linkable_title Setup %}
You need a free API key to use the platform.
To find an account's 64-bit SteamID on profiles without a custom URL you can check the URL of the profile page, the long string of numbers at the end is the 64-bit SteamID. If the profile has a custom URL you will have to copy the URL into STEAMID I/O to find the 64-bit SteamID.
{% linkable_title Configuration %}
To use Steam in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
- platform: steam_online
api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
accounts:
- account1
- account2
{% configuration %} api_key: required: true description: Your API key from https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey. type: string accounts: required: true description: List of accounts. type: map keys: account_id: required: true description: The 64-bit SteamID. type: string {% endconfiguration %}
{% linkable_title Examples %}
If you want to add the accounts to a group for example you will have to use:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
group:
steam:
name: Steam
entities:
- sensor.steam_account1
