i get an alert box with "Something wrong happened, please try again"
in f12 tools in network tab i can see that the get request to /check is throwing an 500 internal server error
(response also includes error page html, that is how i found this thread)

thanks for checking. i wrote the GA creator in another thread and he found a divide by 0 error in his GA rules, and fixed that. so indeed now they no longer throw that error :)

Hey knsys, there is a CV bug with Just Cause 4 Reloaded (barter.vg) incorrectly showing both value 0 and Bundled game at the same time in Gifts Sent contribution checks, since the game was renamed from Just Cause 4 to Just Cause 4 Reloaded.
I've informed SG support about it and received confirmation that the Reduced CV setting is reflected correctly on their end, as it's tied to giveaway titles displaying the new name correctly, and suggesting that the issue must lie directly with how SGTools reports CV. Could you verify this?
Random user example: https://www.sgtools.info/sent/Padde (SG profile here), top 4th GA. The name on SGTools is still Just Cause 4 if anything.
Game was a Humble Choice feature (Complete Ed. but the sub for that can't be added), hence many GAs created:

SG bundle games check here.
All subs on SteamDB.

SGtools check suddenly tells me I have 2 unactivated wins.
They've been activated about 5-6 years ago though. Never had an issue so far.
What could be the issue?
The games in question are:
A Sky Full of Stars (2019-09-24 18:04:00)
Sakura Gamer (2020-03-23 15:39:00)

False positives for X Wars Deluxe (barter.vg) because of revoked keys:

Possibly also the DLC but I haven't really seen issues in SGTools checks.

Pleasure's mine. Another one for which I've found many false positives, Pit Blocks 3D :

Two more. Multiple false positives for PiiSim (B.VG), revoked keys:

Planet of War: The Legend of Fu (B.VG) - Dev decided to be a spaz about the promotion of their game, bypassing a site's purpose of giving away full games by giving full game keys, then revoking them. Multiple false positives.

I didn't see anyone else mention it, so maybe I'm weird, but I check real cv for myself and it's missing like 30 giveaways. Did a full sync and it says 280 giveaways, but real cv page only shows 252 giveaways.
Is this a bug, or is there something weird with those giveaways that they don't populate?
Comment has been collapsed.
No, I see multiples of piczle cross adventure, but zero entries for mail time, so i dont think that's it.
Comment has been collapsed.
These are the ones missing from your real cv sent page: https://pastebin.com/VUZhnshk
I have no idea why they don't appear. I can't see anything different about them.
And no, it's not just you. I also have a big discrepancy: 729 on SG vs 615 on SGTools.

Edit: FIXED I just read another comment about doing a full synchronization and that removed the flag.
Hi, I was flagged for this giveaway. The giveaway was for House of 1000 Doors: Family Secrets but what I received was House of 1,000 Doors - Family Secrets. That giveaway had ended years ago and I'd marked the game as "Received" because I didn't know better so when I noticed the store page didn't display that I owned the game, I chalked it up to Steam just not registering the game in my library yet and I forgot about it.
Recently, a kind user, duville, notified me about this flag, reminding me of this mistake so I contacted SteamGifts support to mark the giveaway as "Not Received" and the giveaway creator to delete the giveaway. Despite the giveaway getting deleted, the flag still remains even though I have since synced my Steam library with SteamGifts numerous times and none of my games are marked 'Private'. Any help would be appreciated.

Then, as you think SGT is a "garbage site", I would recommend to not use it.

Hello knsys ,
I wanted to report an invalid entry in some of my trains

Aloha, knsys! :)
There was an invalid entry here, although I'm 99% sure he's done it again.

I'm not sure if this has been asked before.. but is there a way to fetch bundled data from an SGTools API? I'd like to know the "effective from" of specific games, and it seems that https://www.sgtools.info/lastbundled just gives info about the most recent 30 or so games. Thank you so much!
Comment has been collapsed.
Not sgtools but the api provided by ESGST. Its mentioned somewhere here and its ok to use it directly.
endpoint docs https://esgst.rafaelgomes.xyz/api/docs/
nocv endpoint = https://esgst.rafaelgomes.xyz/api/games/ncv
reducedcv endpoint = https://esgst.rafaelgomes.xyz/api/games/rcv
build and use a caching function so your not hitting his site on every call.
I call for an update at most once a calendar day.
use the update functions so your only retrieving what you need.
keep a local database of what you need and update it using his api.
ie. a NOCV game is not going to change dates once its gone nocv. There is no need
to get the same data over and over. A reduced cv game will not change dates until it becomes a nocv game.
apps and sub are separate.
I'm not doing anything fancy for storage. Just dumping arrays to txt so I can quickly load them as needed. Looks like I have 4 txt files and its just over 1MB total.

Sorry for the late reply, but you can fetch this data from steamgift itself with the provided Json "api".
There should be a CG post somewhere deep in the forums that explain the pages that has an optional format
get parameter that if you specify as json
it will return the information in JSON style.
This works on the bundled pages too, so just fetch this url and increment the page parameter as needed
Comment has been collapsed.
No worries, and thanks! Unfortunately that does not work for my use case, which is to get the "effective from" date. As an example, Lost Ruins has its value reduced a few days ago, but the reduced_value_timestamp
for that game dates back to 2013. I need to know the date of which the reduced_value_timestamp
was set.

Hey there! Got a whole bunch of invalid entries all across this entire train.
In case it's relevant, while my giveaways say "SGTools protected" in the description, I only added that later on (at the end of September, I think).
Comment has been collapsed.
I didn't share the link with anyone, the only legit way to access the train was through SGTools (via this thread).
Thanks! :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I need to see about manually checking the train, but at least the cart linked to this giveaway has an invalid entry

More people were found to have bypassed, but since the sgtools only links to mine, I've got no good way to provide info.
Comment has been collapsed.
In the future, if I did a train with multiple people, could I have generated the sgtools check with all of the invite only giveaways even if they weren't created by me?
This is with the expectation that I know all of the giveaway URLs before I created the sgtools check.

Hello. Can you please refresh my page?

Zombie Waiting was listed as not activated on one of my recent winners. it didn't show up in the winner's library but was marked as received on the giveaway. i assumed the game is profile limited, but it doesn't say it is on the store page. any idea what might be going on here?
Comment has been collapsed.
game is not removed from steam, either they activated a different game and still marked as received, or its marked as private.
being profile limited does not hide games from the library, only prevents them from showing in showcases and such.
I would request a reroll for game not activated in cases like that(if game is removed/banned from steam its good to report those here so they get whitelisted)
Comment has been collapsed.
I got a game flagged for not activating when I removed it from my account. Even when I added it back and synchronised my account it still is marked as not activated. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
