I have created a kit for people to use once they join the steam group... i called it steam, shows in kit json as kits.steam so would this be the group or do i add something else? little confused

The SteamGroups plugin just adds users to a group; what you see in Kits is permissions. You can grant the permission created in Kits to the group you set in Steam Groups.

oxide.grant group steam kits.steam

So in the oxide part i put the name of the kit example. kits.discord

oxide.grant group GROUPNAME PERMISSIONAME

If "kits.discord" is the permission for that kit, then yes.

Okay thanks for the help, how long will it take for them to have the kit? once they have done the auth

If they are added to the group and you've assigned the permission successfully to that group, then I would imagine they have permission to get the kit.
