How am I exceeding steam api's rate limit?

[rektdie]

I want to get a steam user's CSGO inventory with this steam API and it works fine for the first 5-6 call. After that I get the error code 429, but I don't understand how I exceed the rate limit with this low amount of requests. I found this on steam: "You are limited to one hundred thousand (100,000) calls to the Steam Web API per day.", but I clearly did not make more than 100.000 calls.

import requests
import json

steamIDs = [
    76561198323251063, # Enyém
    76561199013264816 # Rolié
]

gameID = "730"

with open("valid_proxies.txt", "r") as f:
    proxies = f.read().split("\n")

def jprint(obj):
    text = json.dumps(obj, sort_keys=True, indent=4)
    return text

response = requests.get(f"http://steamcommunity.com/inventory/{steamIDs[1]}/{gameID}/2")
print(response.status_code)

with open("data.txt", "w") as f:
    f.write(jprint(response.json()))

I noticed I opened the help in the wrong topic. Sorry for that.

The inventory endpoint doesn't fall under the Steam Web API, and the 100k request limit doesn't apply to it.

Check the headers that your browser is sending, and make sure you send as many of them as you can in your own requests.
