Palworld’s admin commands run through in-game chat. Set an admin password first, then log in from your own game account.
Log in as an admin
- Open Startup on your Palworld server and set Admin Password. Keep it different from the join password.
- Restart the server, join it and press Enter to open chat.
- Enter /AdminPassword followed by a space and your admin password. Do not include angle brackets.
- Enter /Info to check the server information or /ShowPlayers to list connected players.
Common commands
/Save saves the world. /Broadcast Server restart in five minutes sends a message to everyone.
/KickPlayer STEAMID removes a player from the current session. /BanPlayer STEAMID bans them, and /UnBanPlayer STEAMID removes the ban. Replace STEAMID with the player’s ID. Keep the exact command spelling.
For supported Steam players, /ShowPlayers helps you check the ID before acting. Pocketpair documents these moderation commands with SteamID arguments. Do not guess an Xbox or PS5 player’s ID from their display name; ask support if you cannot identify the correct argument.
Shut down with a warning
Use /Shutdown 60 Server restarting to warn players and shut down after 60 seconds. This stops the game server; use Start in the panel to bring it back online. Avoid /DoExit for routine restarts because it forces the server to stop.
For a different name or private join password, see the Palworld name and password guide.
