FAQ

Do I need a Steam login or proxy?

No. The actor uses Steam's public store and review APIs, accessible anonymously. A proxy is optional and only needed if you hit rate limiting on very large runs.

Can I filter reviews by sentiment or language?

Yes. Use Review Type to get positive-only or negative-only reviews, and Review Language for a specific Steam language code (or all).

How many reviews can I pull per game?

Set Max Reviews per Game to any number, or 0 for unlimited. Steam returns up to 100 per page and the actor paginates automatically via the cursor API.

Which export formats are supported?

Every run is stored in an Apify Dataset, downloadable as JSON, JSONL, CSV, Excel, HTML or XML, or accessible via the Apify API.

Is this a Steam reviews API alternative?

Yes. It works as a no-key Steam reviews API alternative — it reads Steam's public store and review endpoints directly, so you get structured review and game data without registering for or maintaining your own API access.

How do I scrape Steam reviews without login?

Just provide app IDs, store URLs or search queries and run. The actor pulls Steam user reviews anonymously, with no Steam account, login or API key required.

How do I export Steam reviews to CSV or JSON?

Run the actor, then download the resulting dataset as CSV or JSON (also Excel, HTML or XML) from the Apify Console or API to build a ready-to-use Steam game reviews dataset.
