# Live CS2 API demo

This is the full cs2.sh API running on live data. Pick any of 19 curated items, from knives and gloves to cases and commodity skins, switch between 12 endpoints, and see exactly what the API returns: current bid and ask prices, full Steam order books, BUFF float-range pricing, liquidity estimates, and price history going back to 2013. Every value is real and refreshes on its own.

## The demo runs 12 live endpoints, from all-marketplace prices to single-marketplace order books and archives, against 19 real CS2 items priced across BUFF, CSFloat, Steam, Youpin, C5Game, and Skinport:

- [Liquidity estimates](https://cs2.sh/docs/liquidity-items) (`GET /v1/liquidity/items`): Liquidity bucket for every tracked item, computed from sale velocity, plus an estimated sale time.

## demo questions

### Is the demo using real data?

Yes. Every price, order book, and history point comes straight from the live cs2.sh API. Nothing is mocked, and the default view refreshes about every 30 seconds.

### Do I need an API key or an account?

No. The demo is public and needs no key or signup. It runs a fixed set of 19 items so anyone can explore the full response shape before subscribing.

### Which marketplaces does the demo cover?

Six normalized sources: BUFF, CSFloat, Steam, Youpin, C5Game, and Skinport. Prices are keyed by market_hash_name, so the same item lines up across all of them.

### Which endpoints can I try?

12 endpoints: live prices and price history across all marketplaces, BUFF float-range data, Steam order books, long-term archives and sale history, liquidity, and the item schema.

### How far back does the price history go?

It depends on the source. Third-party archives go back to 2022 and 2023, and native Steam sale history goes back to 2013 for items that have it.

### Can I use this for the whole CS2 catalog?

The demo explores the API on a curated set of items. Full access covers every tracked item across all six marketplaces. See the [pricing page](https://cs2.sh/pricing) and the [docs](https://cs2.sh/docs/introduction) to get started.
