Steam App ID Finder
Type a game name to get its Steam App ID, or paste a store URL and read the ID straight out of the link. Free, instant, no signup.
Searches Steam's own store index. Paste a store URL and the App ID is read straight out of it, no lookup needed.
Where the App ID lives in a Steam URL
Every Steam store page carries the App ID in its address, directly after /app/. It is the fastest way to read one off, and it works even for pages that store search will not return.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/367520/Hollow_Knight/The trailing name is cosmetic -- Steam ignores it, so store.steampowered.com/app/367520 loads the same page. The same number appears in Community hub URLs, in SteamDB, and in the appid parameter of every Steamworks Web API call.
In the desktop client, right-click a game in your library, open Properties, and the App ID is listed under the Updates tab.

Note that a game's demo, its DLC and its soundtrack each carry their own App ID, separate from the base game. If you are pulling review counts or price data for a comparison, make sure you are on the base game's ID -- a demo's ID returns no reviews and no price.
Once you have the App ID, the next question is usually whether that store page is any good. Paste one in and get a graded breakdown.
Getting an App ID for your own game
Looking up an existing game's App ID and getting one for a game you are making are different jobs. Valve assigns your App ID after you pay the $100 Steam Direct recoupable fee and finish Steamworks onboarding, including tax and banking paperwork. You receive the ID before your store page is public, so you can wire it into builds and internal tooling while the page is still a draft.
The full process, the timing, and what you can do before the game is ready are in our guide to getting a Steam App ID, and the fee itself is broken down in how to publish a game on Steam.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Steam App ID?
A Steam App ID is the unique number Valve assigns to every product on Steam. Games, DLC, demos, soundtracks and tools each get their own. It is the identifier every Steam URL, API endpoint and third-party tool uses to refer to that product. Hollow Knight is 367520, Stardew Valley is 413150, Terraria is 105600. The number never changes, even if the game is renamed.
How do I find a Steam game's App ID?
The fastest way is the store URL: in store.steampowered.com/app/367520/Hollow_Knight/ the App ID is 367520, the number directly after /app/. You can also search by name in the tool above, or open Properties on the game in your Steam library and read it from the Updates tab.
Is the Steam App ID the same as the game ID?
Yes. App ID, AppID and game ID all mean the same number. Valve says App ID because the identifier covers more than games: DLC, demos, soundtracks, playtests and software all get one. A game's demo and its DLC each carry a different App ID from the base game.
Why can I not find a game's App ID by name?
Store search only returns products publicly listed in your region. A game that is unreleased with no Coming Soon page, region-locked, delisted, or a private playtest will not appear even though it has an App ID. If you have any Steam URL for it, paste that instead -- the ID is in the link whether or not the page is searchable.
