In order for your server to be able to authenticate with the stats server, you must authenticate your server through using a Steam GSLT (Game Server Login Token). GSLTs can be obtained from Steam's Game Server Account Management page. As this page states, there are various criteria your Steam account needs to meet in order to generate a token, this includes ownership of the game, linking your Steam account with a phone number and having your account in good standing.
In order to generate a token for Insurgency: Sandstorm, enter the App ID as 581320. The memo field can be set to anything, so use it to help you remember which token you are assigning to each of your servers. You must use a unique token for each individual server you are hosting.
To start your server with GSLT authentication add -GSLTToken=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to the server's command line where "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" is the token displayed on the Steam Game Server Account page.
How to add Game Server Login Token to your command line:
- Stop server.
- Click "Command line Manager"
- Click the "Custom Command lines" tab
- Click "New"
- Give the command line a description
- Make sure Hostname(Servername), Map, Scenario and any other command line parameters you want to use are set
- Tick the tick box next to "GSLT Token" parameter and input your GSLT Token in the text field
- Press "Save"
- Click "Select"
