2. On the left-hand side, navigate to Settings > General.
   

3. Locate the Password field in Base Settings, then type your password.
   

4. Click Save Changes at the bottom, then Start the server.
   

5. Wait until the Hytale server comes online, then join using your password.

Setting Up a Hytale Server Whitelist

There are two primary commands that you will be using to enable the whitelist and add players to it. Follow the sections below to get started!

How to Enable the Whitelist

1. Navigate to Tools > Live Server Console from your Nitrado Web Interface.
   

2. While the server is running, enter “whitelist on” in the command prompt.
   

3. If successful, you will see the “Whitelist enabled!” confirmation message.

Adding Players to the Whitelist

1. Navigate to Tools > Live Server Console from your Nitrado Web Interface.
2. Enter “whitelist add [username]” in the command prompt, while the server is running.
   

   Replace [username] with the Hytale account you want to be whitelisted. E.g. Username.

3. If successful, you will see the “Added [username] to the whitelist!” confirmation message.

Whitelist JSON File

If you want to check the configuration file for the whitelist, follow these instructions:

⚠️ Stop the server beforehand, if making changes to the whitelist.json file.

1. Navigate to Settings > Config Files from your Nitrado Web Interface.
   

2. Click the drop down list, then select whitelist.json to open the file.
   

3. Inside of the file, you can see whitelisted Hytale Accounts (IDs) and if it’s enabled.
   

   Important: Only edit this file if you know what you’re doing! Fortunately, the file editor does show errors, including missing commas, mismatched parentheses, etc..
