A Steam Game Server Login Token helps your players locate your server if its IP address changes. It also verifies game ownership—since a verified Steam purchase is required to generate a GSLT—and helps prevent fake servers from flooding the server list.

Here, you can manage dedicated game server accounts associated with your Steam account.
You are solely responsible for these tokens. If your game server accounts are banned for any reason, you may be restricted from playing the associated games.
Do not distribute game server login tokens to third parties. If you have distributed a game server login token to a third party, please delete the token below.
If you reset your Steam password via the Steam help website, or if Steam Support resets your password, all your GSLTs will be regenerated. This is to prevent misuse by someone else who may have had access to your account.
A game server login token that goes unused for a long period of time (the game server never logs in) will expire. An expired token can be regenerated below.
