How To Add Admins In Valheim

Managing player permissions—including granting administrative privileges or banning players—is essential for maintaining a healthy gaming environment. Valheim uses a file called adminlist.txt to handle player permissions.

1. Access the Game Host Bros Panel.
2. Click on your Valheim server.
3. In the sidebar click on Management > File Manager.
4. Select the .config/unity3d/IronGate/Valheim/ folder.
5. Here, find the file named adminlist.txt.
6. Add a new entry on its own line in SteamID64 format. You can get your SteamID from here. It should look like this: 76561198072786081.
7. Restart your server.
