Re: Counter Strike Codes

Game Authentication Code created by the user, together with one of their match sharing codes, will allow third-party websites and applications to retrieve match sharing codes for each next match in their match history.
Steam Support doesn't review or endorse third-party websites or applications that request access to Game Authentication Codes, and can take no responsibility for those websites or applications. If users don't trust the website or application that is requesting information, users should not approve the request.
When a more recent match has been completed by the user and is available in user match history, then the HTTP response code will be HTTP 200 OK and the response body will contain the next match sharing code:
When your known code represents the last match in user match history and no next match is available in user match history, then the HTTP response code will be HTTP 202 Accepted and the response body will contain "n/a" instead of the next match sharing code:
When website or application Steam Web API key is correct, then status code HTTP 403 Forbidden may be returned from Web API calls that require a valid steamidkey user authentication code parameter. Failing to supply a valid steamidkey user authentication code at a high rate will result in multiple subsequent calls returning status code HTTP 503 Service Unavailable even for valid steamid+steamidkey pairs.
Additionally, strict rate-limiting is applied to accommodate multiple website and application developers, so the calling website or application should be prepared to handle status codes HTTP 429 Too Many Requests and HTTP 503 Service Unavailable. When these errors are encountered then website or application should reduce the number of requests per second that they are issuing and refrain from issuing too many requests that have an invalid steamidkey user authentication code parameter.
Status code HTTP 412 Precondition Failed can be returned when the knowncode parameter is invalid or does not represent a match sharing code that belongs to the user. The website or application should stop attempting further calls until user gets a chance to supply a valid match sharing code from their match history.
