# How to Manage the Admin Whitelist in MORDHAU

> Authorize staff as server administrators on your MORDHAU server by editing the Admins.txt file with their correct PlayFab or Steam identifiers.

## Staff Authorization

> While the `adminlogin` command is useful for temporary sessions, a professional server requires a persistent admin list. By whitelisting your PlayFab ID, you and your staff will automatically gain administrative powers every time you connect, without needing to remember a password.

## 1. Retrieving Member IDs

Mordhau uses **PlayFab IDs** (not SteamID64) for internal server administration.

1. Connect to your server.
2. Open the console (`~`) and type `playerlist`.
3. Locate the player you want to authorize and copy their long ID string.

***

## 2. Editing the Whitelist

1. Navigate to `/Mordhau/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/`.
2. Open (or create) `Admins.txt`.
3. Paste the PlayFab IDs, one per line:
   ```txt theme={null}
   76561198000000001
   76561198000000002
   ```
4. Save the file and **Restart** the server.

<Tip>
  ### Toggle Admin

  Once whitelisted, you may still need to activate your administrative powers in-game to access the management menus. Use the console command `toggleadmin` to enable your staff status after joining.
