observations for Steam App ID 730. You can try requests without a key or
create a free API key for higher-capacity access.

An API key is optional. Requests without a valid key are limited to 100 requests per day per IP address.
Requests with a valid key use the authenticated API capacity, currently limited to
200 requests per second across authenticated traffic. A 429 Too Many Requests
response means the relevant limit has been reached.
