Batch Query Steam Keys for activation on SteamWorks

SteamQueryBatchKey.js

// 1. GO TO SteamWorks, into the Query CD Key page, here: https://partner.steamgames.com/querycdkey/
// 2. Fill in your keys below:
// 3. Go to DevTools, Console, and paste all of this here there!
// 4. Report will be printed to the console.

keys = `
0ZQR4-N0H7K-AEJ77
D05V5-P47AP-4ET3Q
GGJZ5-ZN0BR-F74C5
FWZP4-2IXHB-GYV3A
`

var keylist = keys.split("\n");

keylist.forEach(key => {
	if(key.length<17) return;
	function reqListener () {
	  let body = this.responseText;
	  let result = body.split('<h2>Activation Details</h2>')[1];
		  if (!result && !err) {
			console.log('Error quering CD Key ' + key);
		  } 
		  result = result.split('</table>')[0];
		  result = result.match(/<td>.*<\/td>/g);
		  result = result.map(function (line) {
			return line.replace(/<[^>]*>/g, '');
		  });
		  let line = [key, (result[0] === 'Activated') ? '"' + result[1] + '"' : result[0]].join('\t');
		  console.log(line);
	}
	var oReq = new XMLHttpRequest();
	oReq.addEventListener("load", reqListener);
	oReq.open("GET", "https://partner.steamgames.com/querycdkey/cdkey?cdkey="+key+"&method=Query");
	oReq.send();
});

Yes, and the developer account must have access to the game you are querying too.

If you need to add a delay for the purpose of rate limiting each request, try this code. I wrapped the original code in a setTimeout() and var interval is the amount of time (in ms) to delay. Thanks again for this solution!

    var keylist = keys.split("\n");
	var interval = 1000;

keylist.forEach((key, i) => {
	setTimeout(() => {	
		if (key.length < 17)
			return;
		function reqListener() {
			let body = this.responseText;
			let result = body.split('<h2>Activation Details</h2>')[1];
			if (!result && !err) {
				console.log('Error quering CD Key ' + key);
			}
			result = result.split('</table>')[0];
			result = result.match(/<td>.*<\/td>/g);
			result = result.map(function (line) {

			});
			let line = [key, (result[0] === 'Activated') ? '"' + result[1] + '"' : result[0]].join('\t');
			console.log(line);
		}
		var oReq = new XMLHttpRequest();
		oReq.addEventListener("load", reqListener);
		oReq.open("GET", "https://partner.steamgames.com/querycdkey/cdkey?cdkey=" + key + "&method=Query");
		oReq.send();
	}, i * interval);
});

I never got any rate limit errors using this code to check 500+ keys batches

Getting errors expecting expecting semicolon before error.

What am I doing wrong?

EDIT: Clear console totally before running the script. Yes, this includes deleting the precurors "allow pasting" and all that.

What am I doing wrong?

Not telling us the exact and whole error

Doesn't matter what the issue is because I posted the solution for the issue I was running into. TLDR; ensure the console is completely empty before running the script.

Just wanted to say thank you, I've used your code to make one that returns a list of not yet used keys.
