error steamcmd1

Cities: Skylines doesn't support anonymous downloads. You need to use a steam account owning the game to download those workshop items.

I tried it in several ways, with or without a user, without a user it throws me an error and with a user it stays that way for hours. (translated)

The error without user is to be expected, since Cities:Skylines requires an account. For the problem with an account, you apparently already found the issue:

Now my question is the following when I tried this in SteamCMD, it asked me for the key with which I authorize access to SteamCMD, will this cause the error? (translated)

Yes. When using an account for the first time, and the account has SteamGuard active, you need to manually launch steamcmd.exe, enter "login ", and then enter password and SteamGuard code when it asks you for it. Once that is done, everything should be working.

I should probably add an explanation of the process to the readme file...
