Question Error: HTTP error 401

Hi!

 

I'm trying to send an offer from one account to another. I'm relative new to programming.

 

Here is the code:

var TradeOfferManager = require('steam-tradeoffer-manager');
var SteamID = TradeOfferManager.SteamID;

var sid = new SteamID('[MY_STEAM_ID]');
sid.type = SteamID.Type.INDIVIDUAL;
sid.instance = SteamID.Instance.DESKTOP;

var SteamCommunity = require('steamcommunity');
var SteamTotp = require('steam-totp');
var SteamUser = require('steam-user');

var client = new SteamUser();
var community = new SteamCommunity();

var manager = new TradeOfferManager({
    "steam": client,
    "domain": "MY_DOMAIN",
    "language": "en"
});


// Steam logon options
var logOnOptions = {
    "accountName": "MY_STEAM_USERNAME",
    "password": "MY_STEAM_PASSWORD",
};

client.logOn(logOnOptions);

client.on('loggedOn', function() {
    console.log("Logged into Steam as " + client.steamID.getSteam3RenderedID());
});

// Send offer

var offer = manager.createOffer("https://steamcommunity.com/tradeoffer/new/?partner=MY_STEAM_PARTNER&token=MY_STEAM_TOKEN");

manager.loadUserInventory(sid, 730, 2, true, function(err, myItems) {
    if(err) {
        console.error(err);
        return;
    }

console.log(myItems[3]);


    offer.addMyItem(myItems[3]);
    offer.setToken("MY_STEAM_TOKEN");
    offer.setMessage("Transferring my stuff");
    offer.send(function(err) {
     console.log(err);
    });
});

The output is the following:

I couldn't get steam-totp to work (getAuthCode() that is), could this be the issue - that the account isn't logged in correctly?

 

Why I suspect this might be the issue is because 

manager.loadInventory(730, 2, true, function(err, myItems)

didn't work, while 

manager.loadUserInventory(sid, 730, 2, true, function(err, myItems)

works. 

 

If not, what else could be the issue?

 

Thankful for answers,

Andreas

You can't perform authenticated requests before you're logged in. You aren't logged in until the loggedOn event is emitted.

 

What your code is doing is starting the login process, then immediately before it completes you're trying to send an offer. Obviously, that's not gonna work.
