Get steamid from partnerid in tradeofferurl

[What Comes Around]

Hey there,

So basically I need to get the steam id to make sure a user does not exploit a system. But for easy of use I chose to use tradeofferurls for users, but how do I get the steamid from the tradeofferurl?

[Dr. McKay]

const SteamID = require('steamid');
const URL = require('url');

let link = 'https://steamcommunity.com/tradeoffer/new/?partner=46143802&token=aaaaaaaa';
let steamid = SteamID.fromIndividualAccountID(URL.parse(link, true).query.partner);

I couldn't find the answer just looking it up on your site and google, so hopefully this helps anyone with the same question in the future. Thank you very much!

Hey there, today I managed to try out the code and I have another question. I get: 

SteamID { universe: 1, type: 1, instance: 1, accountid: 92222221 }

when using this function:

module.exports.IDFetcher = function(link) {

    const SteamID = require('steamid');

    const URL = require('url');

    steamid_of_user = SteamID.fromIndividualAccountID(URL.parse(link, true).query.partner);

    return steamid_of_user;

}

So while it gives me the account id, it doesn't convert it to a SteamID, which is something I don't know how to do. I have also tried inputting account id's into SteamID.fromIndividualAccountID but still get an object with what I input.
