Data

This repository contains data personalized to my Steam profile.

Source

The data can be found on the Interactive Recommender page.

After the update on August 8, 2019, the data is obtained via three GET queries:

• to retrieve tags.json:

https://store.steampowered.com/recommender/STEAM_ID/tags?sessionid=SESSION_ID

• to retrieve inputs.json:

https://store.steampowered.com/recommender/STEAM_ID/inputs?sessionid=SESSION_ID&steamid=STEAM_ID

• to retrieve results.json:

https://store.steampowered.com/recommender/STEAM_ID/results?sessionid=SESSION_ID&steamid=STEAM_ID&include_played=0&algorithm=0&reinference=0&model_version=0

You can notice parameters other than sessionid and steamid:

• include_played (0),
• algorithm (0),
• reinference (0),
• model_version (0),
• (optional) ignored (a list of ignored input appIDs, e.g. 364470,440),

Variables

• tags.json contains the equivalent of:
  • gTags.json (except there are all the 433 store tags, not just the ones tailored for your recommended apps).

NB: Untying tags from recommendations allows to filter tags even if there is no recommendation attached to them. Otherwise, some users would not find the tag which they are looking for, wrongly think it is a bug, and ask for a fix.

• inputs.json contains the equivalent of gInputApps.json:
  • with the addition of a field t (for "title"), which contains the app name (so that it can be displayed if mouse-hovering).
  • with the addition of a flag i (whether the app is marked as "ignored" by the user).
  • with the addition of a flag ip (?).

• results.json contains the equivalent of:
  • gAppInfo.json in app_info,
  • gRecommendations.json in recommendations, except:
    • there are 400 apps per ranking instead of 200,
    • recommended_apps has been renamed to recommended_apps_deprecated (and thus deprecated).
