    I haven't been able to StartPurchase() with "steam" store at all. It's pretty straight-forward, all I need to provide is "en" for English, "steam" for the store name and "someItemId" - that's it.

    I get a vague err response that doesn't seem to assist me in any form, and with err code 0 (that doesn't exist as a Steam err code). This has been the most frustrating experience trying to get this working since I can't even self-diagnose with vague errors 😕

    Since it's actually incredibly easy to init the purchase from the client-side, this seems to be a BC internal issue. Their docs also have no mention of Steam at all - and the only article I could find pretty much shows what I already implemented.

    I had it working on GameSparks no problem (after implementing the entire flow manually, myself), so I'm very familiar with the process.

      Hi Dylan, actually, the argument purchaseData for StartPurchase() method takes the Steam Item ID (from Edit Price Entry pop-up) as the input field (not the Item ID from the product list)
