Using Golang, I am trying to send a chat message through Steam. The requirements for the post are
jsonp: jQuery1111021217753615295387_1460262983441 <- I am able to get this one
umqid: 6271781725479270872 <- I am unable to understand what this is and how to retreive it.
type: saytext <- I am able to get this one
steamid_dst: 76561198208696745 <- I am able to get this onetext: foobar <- I am able to get this oneaccess_token: 87e689c612b38f535a4d2b645b3aa3a7 <- I am able to get this one_: 1460262983442 <- I am able to get this oneI understand all the variables required and am able to use them except for the UMQID variable. I have been through Steam's javascript source code over and over trying to figure out what the value of it is and how they generate the value but I haven't managed to understand it.
I've even been through someone else's Golang source code (line 211) which does exactly what I am aiming for but I still can't even figure out how they got the UMQID.
If anyone could explain how I am able to get the UMQID so I can post https://api.steampowered.com/ISteamWebUserPresenceOAuth/Message/v0001/ to send a Steam message, it would be greatly appreciated.
You can see he's decoding it by making a call to https://api.steampowered.com/ISteamWebUserPresenceOAuth/Logon/v0001/ at https://github.com/Zemnmez/geothermal/blob/master/chat/chat.go#L158
