Am using GetClientAuthId with AuthIdType as AuthId_Engine. And the steam ID detected is STEAM_ID_STOP_IGNORI. Any idea why this would happen?

GetClientAuthId is returning false because the client is not authenticated/validated yet, and you aren't checking the return value before using the buffer.

Am calling GetClientAuthId in OnClientAuthorized. Shouldn't that mean, the client is authenticated already?

Show code.

[Beaast_exe]

new String:steamid[64];
GetClientAuthId(client, AuthId_Steam2, steamid, sizeof(steamid), false);

You have to get that "false" to continue.

I have a !myid command.

PluginStart: RegAdminCmd("sm_myid", Command_OwnSteamID, "Command to grab own SteamID.");

public Action:Command_OwnSteamID(client, args)
{
	new String:steamid[64];
	GetClientAuthId(client, AuthId_Steam2, steamid, sizeof(steamid), false);
	ReplyToCommand(client, "\x016[Bananas On Fire] \x01Your \x06SteamID \x01 is \x07%s", steamid);
	
	return Plugin_Handled;
}

Do not set the last parameter to false unless you want to allow people to fake their SteamIDs.

It also won’t change anything in relation to calls inside OnClientAuthorized.

They cant fake their SteamIDS unless you create a command to it ...

"They" can fake their own steamids on connect. AFAIK servers can't fake a clients steamid, closest thing is hiding any display of their steamid and redisplaying it with a modified ID.
