What Is a Superadmin in FiveM?

FiveM has implemented a number of open- and admin commands in the server by default.

With superadmin, you can execute in-game commands such as /noclip. These commands cannot be used by normal players, but are for FiveM server owners to moderate with better efficiency. Also, /ban and /kick are examples of superadmin commands. Most superadmin commands can also be found in menus such as vMenu or Lambda. But these menus often use a lot of memory in-game, which can cause busy and large servers to lag. Superadmin is a good solution for this.

How to Set Yourself as a Superadmin in Your FiveM Server?

Join your server via FiveM.
When fully loaded, press the arrow up until the player’s dialog appears. (Otherwise try F10 or F11).
In the player’s dialog find your user ID.
Remember your user ID and don’t exit or disconnect your game session.
Open your game panel Console.
Type in: setgroup USERID superadmin. You need to replace USERID with your ID you found in section 3.
Press ENTER. The command will now run and set your user to superadmin.
Open the game and type an admin command to test. If it doesn’t work then please restart the game and run the in-game command again.

Attention: In the newer version of ESX, es_extended and essentialmode have made updates. It is possible that you cannot give yourself a superadmin because of this. We recommend that you downgrade your es_extended to a version before April 1, 2020.
