How do you fetch a leaderboard?

[Gobot1234]

from steam.client import SteamClient as Client
from steam.guard import SteamAuthenticator

username = "..."
password = "..."
shared_secret = "..."

client = Client()
guard = SteamAuthenticator(secrets={"shared_secret": shared_secret})


@client.on(Client.EVENT_LOGGED_ON)
def on_login():
    client.games_played([440])  # doing this doesn't seem to actually make a difference
    print(client.get_leaderboard(440, "Top Supporters of Byre"))  # fails here with EResult.AccessDenied cause it's trying to create a new leaderboard


client.login(username, password, two_factor_code=guard.get_code())
client.run_forever()

Fetching the leaderboard should be possible from the leaderboard's name (https://steamcommunity.com/stats/TF2/leaderboards/921626) but I can't actually find any examples of this anywhere on GitHub. Anyone have any ideas?

You don't need to be playing the game. I'm guessing the name on steamcommunity is not the actual name of the leaderboard. Never seen a name with spaces.

Alternatively, you can instantiate the SteamLeaderboard manually with the leaderboard id.

from steam.client.builtins.leaderboards import SteamLeaderboard

lb = SteamLeaderboard(client, 440, 'Top Supporters of Byre')
lb.id = 921626
lb.entry_count = 100

Out[13]:  lb[:10]

Out[13]:
[steam_id_user: 76561197960265749
 global_rank: 1

Yeah I did get it working when manually setting the ID but that doesn't seem like a good solution, nor does manually constructing it yourself. Also where do you normally get the name from if it isn't on steamcommunity?
