How to Find a Steam ID

To look up a player you need to identify their Steam account. Steam represents accounts in a few different ways, which can be confusing-here's how to find and tell them apart.

The Forms of a Steam Identity

• SteamID64 - a long 17-digit number (e.g. 7656119...). This is the most reliable identifier and never changes.
• Custom URL (vanity) - a name the user chose, shown as steamcommunity.com/id/theirname.
• Profile URL - for accounts without a custom URL, shown as steamcommunity.com/profiles/7656119..., which contains the SteamID64.

How to Find It

1. Open the player's Steam profile in a browser.
2. Look at the address bar:
   • If it reads /profiles/7656119..., the number is the SteamID64.
   • If it reads /id/theirname, that's their custom URL-which also works for lookups.

Either the number or the custom name is enough to search for a player.

Looking a Player Up on CSStatLab

Paste the SteamID64, the custom name, or the full profile link into the search box on the homepage. A quick shortcut also works: on any Steam profile URL, add a "w" to make steam read steamwcommunity, and it'll take you straight to that player's stats.

If you're trying to use that profile on other stat sites too, pair this with How to Make Your Steam Profile Public and How to Find and Share Your Leetify Profile.

Takeaway

The 17-digit SteamID64 is the most reliable identifier, but a custom name or profile link works too. Any of them lets you pull up a player's stats.
