According to my experience getting item definitions is different for Valve and non-Valve games.

For non-Valve games the procedure is as follows:

  1. Get the digest: GetItemDefMeta
  2. Using the digest, get a complete database of all item definitions for a specific app id: GetItemDefArchive

Note: at some point something might go wrong and the response from the Steam server either for the first or second point will be null or any other errors.

Regarding Valve games:
Each game has its own characteristics but basically, SteamTracking contains a file with all item definitions.
