How to get player steam id?

Why isn’t the PlayerID inside of the PlayerState enough? It should contain the SteamID:

PlayerId | Unreal Engine 5.2 Documentation

Unique net id number.** Actual value varies based on current online subsystem**, use it only as a guaranteed unique number per player.

That’s the problem. SteamID is a unique ID across every game that you play but PlayerID not.

PlayerID = 256
SteamID = STEAM_X:X:XXXXXX

In a world with persistence data a SteamID will be very useful to store data in database.
