How to find a Steam Workshop item ID.

A Published File ID is the numeric identifier for one Workshop item. WorkshopFetch accepts either the complete item URL or this number by itself.

    1

    Open one individual Workshop item

    Start from the page for a single mod, map, asset, or other item—not a collection or a game’s general Workshop page.

    2

    Look at the URL

    An item URL follows this format: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=123456789.

    3

    Copy the value after id=

    In the example above, 123456789 is the Published File ID. You can paste either that number or the full HTTPS URL into the tool.

    4

    Check that it is an individual item

    Collection URLs use a different path and are not accepted by this tool. The lookup is intentionally limited to one item at a time.

What happens next?

WorkshopFetch asks Steam for that item’s public metadata. A direct button appears only when Steam returns an approved public file URL.
