PlayerDB
APIFree API for querying Minecraft, Steam & Xbox accounts
Overview
PlayerDB API offers RESTful endpoints to retrieve account details across Minecraft (Java/Bedrock), Steam, and Xbox platforms. Endpoints like /api/player/minecraft/{username} or /api/player/steam/{id} return JSON responses with data such as UUIDs, display names, avatars, and account timestamps. Use cases include building cross-platform profile aggregators, verifying user identities in gaming communities, or integrating account info into apps. No authentication is required for basic queries, though rate limits apply. It simplifies accessing scattered gaming account data into a single, easy-to-use interface for developers.
