How To Add Admins On Your Eco Server
Learn how to grant admin access to players on your Eco server using their Steam64 or SLG ID.
Eco uses either a Steam64 ID or SLG ID to identify admins — usernames alone do not work. You will need to find the player's ID before granting them admin access.
Finding a Player's Steam64 ID
Visit steamid.io and search for the player's Steam profile URL or username. Copy their SteamID64 (a 17-digit number).
Alternatively, from inside an active game session, use the chat command:
/whois <username>Adding an Admin
Open the Config File
- Log in to the XGamingServer Panel and select your Eco server.
- Click Files in the sidebar.
- Navigate to the Configs folder and open
Users.eco.
Add the Admin Entry
Locate the Admins array and add the player's Steam64 ID or SLG ID:
"Admins": [
"76561198012345678"
]To add multiple admins, separate entries with a comma:
"Admins": [
"76561198012345678",
"76561198087654321"
]Save and Restart
Save the file and restart your server. The player will have admin access the next time they connect.
Admin Commands
Once added as an admin, players can use admin commands in chat, for example:
| Command | Action |
|---|---|
/kick <name> | Kick a player |
/ban <name> | Ban a player |
/serverui | Open the server configuration UI |
/time <hours> | Set the in-game time |
💡 Tip: You can also manage admins through the in-game server UI by using the
/serveruicommand as an existing admin, navigating to the Users tab.
