The request is a duplicate and the action has already occurred in the past, ignored this time

[Luca]

Hey there,

 

I am creating a shop which users can deposit and withdraw from.

 

When any users withdraw from the shop within the same ~5 minutes, I just get this error:

 

{ Error: The request is a duplicate and the action has already occurred in the past, ignored this time}

 

This is caused when I call getInventoryContents, why is this?

 

Any reason why this is in particular? How can I prevent this?

 

Many thanks,

 

Luca

I am currently having the same issue.

It just happens. Steam does weird things. You'll just need to retry.
