Switch Ark Admin

Dear forum members,
for some time now we have been creating and maintaining new ways to help game server admins with questions and problems as quickly as possible, e.g. our Guides section and the Nitrado Community Discord.

Therefore, we inform you that the Nitrado Forum will be closed on March 31, 2023. We are consolidating our community support to our Discord channel, which is faster and more efficient. We have also seen incredible growth in our community due to the hard work of our moderators and our bots. We are confident that this move will ensure that we provide the best support possible for our users.

Thank you to all members for your continued use of the forum!

Assistance with all questions concerning your Nitrado service can now be found in these spots:
Community Discord: https://discord.gg/nitrado
Guides section: https://server.nitrado.net/guides
Support Wizard: https://support.nitrado.net

    My post was deleted when the admin was deleting the spam posts I guess so here it is again:


    Switch isn't an option as a platform so I was forced to choose the wrong one when creating this thread. The recent Ark Switch update removed console access from non admin players on multiplayer and the only way that I know how to give admin access is using the console. I tried enabling RCON but either it doesn't work or a firewall is blocking port 27020 on the server.


    How do we give admin access to players? I'm wondering if either allowing RCON (or opening the port on the server) or giving us a whitelist file would be a quick fix.
