This function can be used to further filter any given UGC query, specifically to exclude a given UGC from the query request. The query handle is the value returned when you created the query (using, for example, steam_ugc_create_query_user()) and the second argument is a string you want to use as the tag to exclude. The function will return true if the query filter was correctly set, or false otherwise.
steam_ugc_query_add_excluded_tag(ugc_query_handle , tag_name);
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
| ugc_query_handle | The query handle to use. |
| tag_name | The tag name to exclude (a string). |
Boolean
var query_handle = steam_ugc_create_query_all(ugc_query_RankedByVote, ugc_match_Items, 1);
steam_ugc_query_add_excluded_tag(query_handle, "walking simulator");
steam_ugc_query_set_return_long_description(query_handle, true);
steam_ugc_query_set_allow_cached_response(query_handle, true);
query_ID = steam_ugc_send_query(query_handle);
The above code creates a query request and stores it's handle in a local variable for future use in the rest of the functions which further define the query request before sending the query.
