Sharp Posted yesterday at 03:24 PM Report Posted yesterday at 03:24 PM It appears Steam has introduced new dynamic rate limits which change during time of day and affect getTradeOffers and similar endpoints. The rate limits start up at around 9AM and they last till like 6PM UTC+0. It's still fine though, most requests (90%) appear to go through and overall is not a massive problem. But I've noticed a new more persistent rate limit on the TradeOffer.getUserDetails endpoint. This appears to happen - (perhaps) after trying to fetch a non-working Trade URL - and then persistently for a long time you're getting 429s (hour/s). I'm not sure if the wrong trade URL fetch is the cause as that seems silly, but that's what I've heard from others -> perhaps someone has experimented with this and is willing provide more details?
