Rust admin command list
Rust offers quite a selection of admin commands. Hit Control+F on your keyboard to search through the lists.
To use these commands, you must have auth level 2, or admin authentication. We show you how to become admin within our Rust New Server Startup Guide - Becoming A Server Administrator.
Note - Sometimes inventory.give or inventory.giveto commands do not operate as they should. This is due to an Oxide Mod Permissions error. This can be fixed easily, with one line of code, by following our guide on the matter. Inventory.giveto Bug - a Simple Fix
