Counter-Strike 2: create a Steam token (GSLT)

Without a token, the server isn't publicly visible.

1 minute read Updated 08.11.2026

Valve requires its own Game Server Login Token (GSLT) for every public CS2 server.

  1. Open steamcommunity.com/dev/managegameservers with your Steam account.
  2. Enter App ID 730, add a note and create the token.
  3. Enter the token when ordering – or change it later under your server → Startup variables at STEAM_GSLT.
  4. Restart the server.

The Steam account must not be limited (at least one purchase) and must not have any bans.
