# How to Add Admins to Your The Isle Server

Need help managing your server? Here's how to make someone an admin so they can help run things!

Becoming an Admin in your The Isle server will give you a range of commands that can help with the gameplay experience of yourself and players. These commands are ranging from healing players, server-wide announcements and kicking/banning players on your game server. There are two ways to add players or yourself as an admin for your The Isle server.

**Note: For this guide you need to know the player’s Steam64ID before adding them as an Admin.**

## Using the Server Files

1. Go to your control panel for your The Isle server hosted by Nodecraft.
2. Select **Server Files** on the left side.
3. Navigate to `Game.ini`file in the `/TheIsle/Saved/Config/LinuxServer`.
