Verify Steam Profiles & Sync Discord Roles to Real Steam Activity
Members verify with Steam OpenID — the same login flow Steam-powered sites use. RoleLogic syncs Discord roles to games owned, playtime, achievements, Steam level, account age, ban status, group membership, and country.
What you can build with Steam Player Role
Real use cases that ship in production Discord servers using RoleLogic + Steam.
Game-owned gating
Members who own a specific Steam game get the role and access to its dedicated channels. Verified via Steam Web API — no honor system, no DM-screenshot proof.
Playtime tier rewards
Tiered roles by hours played (10h, 100h, 500h+, 1000h+). Auto-updated as members keep playing, so loyalty roles stay current without manual refreshes.
Achievement-based roles
Gate roles on achievement count, completion percentage, or specific achievements. Perfect for hardcore game communities and 100% completion clubs.
Recent-activity rewards
Use last-2-weeks playtime to reward currently-active players — an 'Active Player' role for anyone with 5+ hours in the last fortnight, auto-revoked when they go idle.
Anti-cheat / VAC filter
Optionally exclude VAC-banned or game-banned accounts from earning verified roles. Keeps competitive communities and trade-restricted channels clean.
Steam group membership
Verify members of a public Steam group and assign a matching Discord role — useful for Steam-first communities, modding groups, and tournament organizations.
How Steam Player Role works
From install to live Steam roles in a few minutes.
Member signs in with Steam OpenID
Standard Steam OpenID — the same flow used by Steam-powered third-party sites. Members redirect to Steam, log in, and Steam returns a signed Steam ID. No password ever leaves Steam.
Configure your condition
Pick a metric (game ownership, playtime, Steam level, account age, achievements, VAC status, group, country) and a threshold. Operators include =, >, >=, <, <=, and between (range).
RoleLogic syncs roles automatically
Steam profile and game data is re-fetched on a schedule and roles update as members hit thresholds, finish achievements, or buy new games.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about Steam Player Role and RoleLogic.
Do members need a public Steam profile?
Yes. Steam's Web API only exposes games, playtime, achievements, and friends data when both the profile and the 'game details' privacy settings are public. Private profiles can't be read by any third party — that's a Steam restriction, not a RoleLogic one.
How is the Steam account verified?
Steam OpenID — the same flow used by SteamDB, SteamCharts, and most Steam tools. Members log in via Steam itself; RoleLogic only ever sees the resulting signed Steam ID.
Can I check Steam group membership?
Yes. Provide the Steam group's ID and the plugin verifies membership for any public group. Combine with a country or playtime condition to layer requirements.
What about VAC and game bans?
The plugin can require members to be free of VAC bans and/or game bans before granting the role. Useful for cheating-sensitive communities, competitive servers, and trade-restricted channels.
Does country filtering use the user's IP?
No — it uses the country reported by Steam (the country set on their Steam account / store), which is more stable than IP geolocation and doesn't change when members travel.
