I don't know about you, but I used to make lots and lots of GAs...

I'd have lists and lists of keys and games and got scripts that would create GAs either for public or groups. I'd have to do a bit of work still... typing in game name, pasting key, confirming, etc...

But even that is taking a lot of time considering how many keys there are and how many I'd have to make.

So, anyone seen a script around that you can give a list of game names and keys... walk away and have it create them all for you? I don't want it to create a train... Just a bunch for either public or groups...

Probably a long shot in the dark with screaming monkeys grabbing at the barrel... but whatever.

Cheers!
(Obligatory GA)


Thanks!
ESGST is definitely the answer.
Thanks so much everyone! :D

Do you create giveaways one by one or do you use scripts to help out?

Of course! There's no other way!
Never! I do them one by one... painstakingly paying attention to all details!
Who creates giveaways?
I just like tubers... (blast to the past, or do we still do these?)

Thanks much!
ESGST definitely does the trick, tested it a bit and it's not too complicated.
I just needed to turn on Giveaway Templates and Multiple Giveaways Creator :)

There is always a way - human labor - make some folks create gibs instead of ya. I've done something like 1700 gibs without scripts - only recently i've discovered amazing features of enchanted sg and saving features of previous gib and copying it on the next one. [I'm still amazed]. Good luck on your quest. Yes.

with ESGST you can create templates so that the only work you have to do is copy and paste the key and searching the name of the game

ESGST does that. You can paste a list of game names and keys and it will create the giveaways, but it only works if the name of the game is exactly how it is on Steam. Otherwise there is also the manual process, which the script also automates in the end. But the script lets you know if it didn't find a game, then you can correct it and continue from where it left off.

bump ! even though i didn't made many giveaway, the few time i did a train, it indeed took me time, and using a script automating everything would have been great so im bumping in case some people have more info about this :D

I doubt you can have a high level of automation... Sure, not having to select all parameters every time when they are the same, is quite a bit of time saved. But still, even if you had something that only needs game name and key, you still need to check if the correct games were selected for the giveaways. I create giveaways manually and always double check, and usually checking game and key takes me more time than selecting the other options.

yes esgst works absolutely perfect
you just need to specify before which level and times does gas should have and then add the whole list and it creates them all for you

I don't know of any scripts that make the process that easy, but I will suggest the same thing multiple people already did; ESGST extension which among many other things allows you to create giveaway templates that make creating giveaways much quicker.

ESGST is available as a script mind blown :)

It was a script before it also was released as an extension btw.

There's the Steamgifts GA creator; you can find more info on it here: How to create a Giveaways Table/Chart in a few clicks

It's still on my To Do List to make a separate post just for the GA creator.
