How to Add an Admin to Your Arma Reforger Server

You can add other players as admins by entering their SteamID64 in the config.json file.

Tip

Here you can find a guide on how to find your SteamID64.

  1. Stop the server
    Stop your server via the dashboard.

  2. Connect via SFTP
    Connect to your server via SFTP.

  3. Open config.json
    Open the file config.json and find the "admins" entry in the "game" section.

  4. Add SteamID64 to the admins list
    Enter the SteamID64 of the player who should become admin:

    json
    "game": {
      "admins": [
        "76561198012345678",
        "76561198087654321"
      ]
    }
    "game": {
      "admins": [
        "76561198012345678",
        "76561198087654321"
      ]
    }

    Add one SteamID64 per entry. Make sure the entries are separated by commas.
