How to Add Admins to Your Valheim Server on CloudNord

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.
