Arma Reforger Admin List Builder

Build the game.admins IdentityId array and related admin config for your Arma Reforger config.json. Covers all three admin tiers and outputs exact JSON you can paste directly into your server config.

⚠️

Use IdentityIds or Steam64 IDs — NOT display names. Entering a display name (Steam username or Bohemia account name) causes silent failure — the entry is accepted but the player never gets admin access. Find your IdentityId by connecting to the server and running #players via RCON after joining.

SuperAdmin

game.admins array — up to 20 IdentityIds. Permanent access, no password required. Highest privilege level.

Admin (Password)

game.passwordAdmin string — any player can type #login <password> in chat to gain temporary admin until they disconnect.

RCON

RCON permission field — "admin" for full control, "monitor" for read-only access. Configured separately in the RCON block.

SuperAdmins — `game.admins`

Up to 20 IdentityIds. These players have permanent, password-free admin access at the highest privilege level.

IdentityId

Label (display only)

No SuperAdmins added yet — add IdentityIds above.

Password Admin — `game.passwordAdmin`

Any player who types #login <password> in chat gains temporary admin until they disconnect. Leave blank to disable.

Admin Password (optional)

Tip: Use a strong, unique password. Anyone who knows this password can gain admin — do not share it publicly.

RCON Permission

Controls what RCON clients can do. admin allows full control; monitor is read-only (player list, status).

Full RCON control — kick, ban, execute server commands remotely.

{
  "game": {
    "admins": [

    "passwordAdmin": ""  // disabled — set a value to enable
  },

  // Include this RCON block if you use RCON

}

File location:

ArmaReforger/profile/config.json

Merge the game block into your existing config.json — do not replace the whole file. Changes take effect after a server restart.

Finding your IdentityId:

Connect to your server in-game
Open RCON or use a temporary SuperAdmin
Run #players in RCON
Copy the IdentityId from the player list
