Getting started with your FiveM server

To get your FiveM server up and running, you'll need to complete the initial setup and configuration through txAdmin — a feature-packed web interface that walks you through each step.

Getting access to txAdmin

1. After starting your server, look in the console log for the txAdmin registration pin. If you can't find it, restart your server to print it again.

2. Launch txAdmin.

3. Enter your server pin to link the server to your account.

4. Log in or register your cfx.re account and authorize txAdmin to access your username and profile details.
5. Register the txAdmin administrator account for this server.

Note: This password is unique for every server and does not need to match your Cfx.re account's password.

Setting up your server

Note: To complete this step, you'll need a valid cfx.re license key. For details on generating one, check out this guide.

1. Once logged in, select a deployment type. For this guide, we'll choose Popular Recipes.

2. Select a server template. For this guide, we'll choose FiveM Basic Server.

3. Confirm your Data Location by clicking Save.

4. Click Go to Recipe Developer.
5. Review the generated recipe and click Next.

6. Enter your Cfx.re license key and click Run Recipe. For details on generating a license key, see this guide.

Note: Depending on the chosen template, your server might require a database to store information. If you see the Show/Hide database options button, please follow this guide before continuing the setup.

7. Wait for the server to be deployed, then click Next.
8. Edit your server.cfg to configure the server's hostname, project name, project description, tags, and locale. A list of valid locales can be found here.

9. When done, click Save & Run Server.
