Steam ID Finder: Find a Steam ID for free
The Steam ID Finder shows your Steam ID or another player’s as a SteamID64, SteamID, SteamID3, friend code and Steam hex ID. Paste a profile link, custom URL, friend code or invite link, and s.team/p/hj-qp becomes, for example, 76561197960287930. You’ll also get profile information, ban status and a ready-to-use admin line for your game server.

Example result
What the result looks like in the Steam ID Finder
You enter a profile link, custom URL, friend code, or invite link, and the tool identifies the input, shows all ID formats, and generates the admin line for your game. It checks the profile and ban status live on Steam, which the example doesn't show. Your output depends on your input.
Example · Invite link as input
Input
- Invite link (detected)
- https://s.team/p/hj-qp
- From Steam under Friends > Add a Friend. The part after /p/ encodes the account ID.
Output
- SteamID64
- 76561197960287930
- For the Steam Web API, profile links, and most admin lists.
- SteamID
- STEAM_0:0:11101
- Source games, SourceMod, and ULX.
- SteamID3
- [U:1:22202]
- Status output in the console of modern Source games.
- Friend code
- 22202

Output: admin line per game
add_principal identifier.steam:1100001000056ba group.admin- steam:-HexFiveM only recognizes Steam identifiers if steam_webApiKey is set in server.cfg. Restart the server afterward.
ownerid 76561197960287930 "Name" ""- SteamID64Takes effect immediately in the console; the player must reconnect. Use moderatorid instead of ownerid for moderator permissions.

Guide
Find a Steam ID: How the Steam ID Finder works
Six steps from profile link to the right ID and admin line for your server.
Step 1
Copy link or code
Copy your Steam profile address (steamcommunity.com/profiles/… or /id/…), or your friend code or invite link (s.team/p/…) from Friends > Add a Friend. For other players, use their profile link or an ID such as STEAM_0:… or [U:1:…].
Step 2
Paste into the Steam ID Finder
Paste the link or code into the input field on the “Single search” tab. The tool detects the format automatically. If a number or code could also be a custom URL, it offers that interpretation too.
Step 3
View and copy ID formats
Your browser instantly converts IDs, friend codes and invite links into SteamID64, SteamID (STEAM_0 and STEAM_1), SteamID3, friend code, Steam hex ID, invite link and profile URL, each with a copy button. A custom URL is resolved only when you click “Find SteamID”.
Step 4
Check profile and ban status
Click “Find SteamID” to query Steam and see the name, profile visibility and ban status (VAC, game, community, trade), where Steam provides the data.
Step 5
Copy the admin line for your game server
Select your game under “Add as admin on your game server” and copy the ready-to-use line. The file path and required format appear directly above it.
Step 6
Check multiple players at once
On the “Multiple IDs” tab, paste up to 50 lines, click “Convert list” and download the result as a CSV.
Without a tool
Where can I find my Steam ID? In the Steam client, browser and app
Three places in Steam where you can find your Steam ID or friend code.
Path 1
In the Steam client
Click your account name in the top right > Account Details. Your Steam ID appears as SteamID64 directly below the heading.
Path 2
In the browser
Open your profile on steamcommunity.com and copy the address. A link containing /profiles/ already includes your SteamID64; one containing /id/ shows your custom URL, which the tool resolves.
Path 3
In the Steam app
Your friend code and invite link are under Friends > Add a Friend. Paste either here; both work with private profiles.
Other players
How do I find someone else’s Steam ID?
Open the person’s Steam profile (from your friends list or by searching their name in the Community), copy the page address and paste it above. If they play on your server, an ID from the console’s status output also works, such as STEAM_0:1:… or [U:1:…]. The tool converts ID formats even for private profiles. For full player lists, use the “Multiple IDs” tab with up to 50 lines and a CSV download.
For server admins
Steam ID and Steam hex ID for your game server: Add an admin in FiveM, Rust, ARK and more
Each game expects the Steam ID in a different format and location. FiveM and RedM, for example, use the Steam hex ID. After searching, select your game under “Add as admin on your game server” and copy the ready-to-use line with its file path. The tool currently supports these 17 games:
- FiveM
- RedM
- Rust
- ARK: Survival Evolved
- Valheim
- 7 Days to Die
- Counter-Strike 2
- Garry's Mod
- Unturned
- Squad
- V Rising
- Sons of the Forest
- Arma 3
- Left 4 Dead 2
- Team Fortress 2
- Insurgency: Sandstorm
- The Isle Evrima
Basics
What is a Steam ID? How it differs from your account name, display name, and custom URL
A Steam ID is the unique number Steam assigns to your account. It is public, assigned at registration, and never changes. This distinguishes it from names you can change yourself:
- Steam ID
- Your account's permanent ID never changes. Game Servers, bans, and admin lists use it.
- Custom URL
- Custom part of your profile URL (steamcommunity.com/id/…), changeable at any time.
- Display name
- The name others see in-game and on their friends list. You can change it at any time.
- Account name
- Login name used to sign in. Don't share it with anyone; the tool doesn't need it.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about Steam ID Finder
Quick answers about Steam IDs, friend codes, security, and this tool.
The quickest way: paste a profile link, friend code or invite link into the Steam ID Finder above. In the Steam client, you’ll find your SteamID64 under your account name at the top right > Account details, directly below the heading. On mobile, you’ll find your friend code and invite link in the Steam app under Friends > Add a Friend.
Open the person’s Steam profile, copy the page address and paste it above. A custom URL (/id/…) or an ID from your game server’s status output (STEAM_0:… or [U:1:…]) also works. The tool converts ID formats even for private profiles. It does not search by display name: it interprets a single word as a custom URL.
Your Steam ID is your account’s permanent, public number, usually a 17-digit SteamID64 (7656119…). It is not your username: you only need your account name to log in (keep it private), and you can change your display name and custom URL freely. Game servers and admin lists use the Steam ID.
No. Your Steam ID is assigned when you create your account and never changes. Only your display name and custom URL can be changed. That is why bans and admin privileges on Game Servers are tied to your Steam ID.
Yes. Your Steam ID is public and is not a password. Nobody can use it to log in to your account. Never share your password, Steam Guard codes, or account name for login, even for a supposed ID check.
Almost. Your friend code is your account ID: your SteamID64 minus 76561197960265728. Your invite link (s.team/p/…) also encodes this account ID. The tool converts both into the other formats without querying Steam.
Most games expect a SteamID64 (such as Rust, ARK, Squad and V Rising). SourceMod and ULX use the classic SteamID (STEAM_0:…); Valheim uses the Steam_<SteamID64> format. FiveM and RedM need the Steam hex ID (steam:1100001…). The tool shows it with a copy button and generates the add_principal line for server.cfg. The server can only recognise Steam IDs if steam_webApiKey is set there.
Yes. After you click “Find SteamID”, the tool shows whether there is a VAC ban or trade ban. Depending on the data available, it also shows the number of VAC and game bans, any community ban and the days since the last ban. The tool queries Steam for this data live.
There is no search history. Your browser converts IDs, friend codes and invite links directly. For profiles, ban status and custom URLs, our server queries Steam and caches the result for no more than 30 minutes. The tool deliberately does not read real names, regions or cities.
