Generating a GSLT for Your CS:GO Server
Generate a Steam Game Server Login Token (GSLT) for your CSGO server so it appears in the public server list, plus GSLT requirements and ban info.
A GSLT (Steam Game Server Login Token) is required by Valve for your CSGO server to appear in the public server list. Here is how to create one and add it to your server.
Creating Your GSLT
Generate the Token
Go to the Steam Game Server Account Management page and log in with your Steam account. Under App ID, enter 730 for CSGO, then name the memo anything you want.
Open the Startup Page
Visit the XGamingServer Panel and select your CSGO server. In the sidebar, go to Startup.
Enter Your Token
Enter your token under Game Server Login Token.
Restart Your Server
Restart your server to apply the token.
📝 Note: Each CSGO server you run requires its own GSLT.
FAQ
What are the requirements for making a GSLT?
Valve has guidelines on what accounts are able to create a Game Server Login Token:
- Your Steam account must not be currently community banned or locked.
- Your Steam account must not be limited.
- Your Steam account must have a qualifying registered phone.
- Your Steam account must own the game for which you are creating a game server account.
- Your Steam account may create 1000 game server accounts.
Can I get a GSLT Ban?
In the past, Valve has token banned server owners that used plugins granting users special weapon skins, knives, or ranks. If Valve token bans you, you can no longer host servers from your account and will be temporarily banned from Competitive mode. We strongly suggest you view Valve's Terms of Service to see what is and is not allowed.
If your GSLT is banned, you will need to use another Steam account to generate tokens in the future.
