How to Add Admins to Your Valheim Server on CloudNord

Valheim

1. Get the SteamID64 of the Player

  • Visit steamid.io to convert a player’s custom Steam URL, SteamID, or other identifier into their SteamID64.

  • Enter the player’s name or URL, and copy the resulting 64-bit numeric SteamID64.

  • You’ll need this ID for the admin list.


2. Access Your Server’s Files

  • Log in to CloudNord and go to Servers from the left menu.

  • Select your Valheim server from the server list.

  • Click on Files in the sidebar to open the server’s file manager.


3. Create or Edit adminlist.txt

  • In the file manager, click the New File button to create a new file.

  • Paste the list of SteamID64s—each on a separate line.

    Example:

    76561198123456789
    76561198098765432

  • After adding all admin SteamIDs, name your file adminlist.txt and click Create File to finish saving.


4. Verify and Activate Admins

  • The adminlist.txt file should now exist in your server’s root directory. When your server restarts or reloads, Valheim recognizes these SteamIDs as admins.

  • New admins will have access to admin commands the next time they connect.


Tips

  • Use steamid.io to reliably convert usernames to SteamID64 format for Valheim.

  • Admins gain access to special commands to manage the server and enforce rules.

  • Double-check SteamIDs for accuracy to prevent errors.
