Generating server administrator privilege key

In TeamSpeak 3, the server administrator privilege key is a crucial element that grants administrative access and control over the server. This documentation will guide you through the process of generating a server administrator privilege key in TeamSpeak 3.

Accessing Server Query #

To generate the server administrator privilege key, you need to access the Server Query interface. Follow these steps:

1. Launch TeamSpeak 3 Server on your server machine.
2. Open a terminal or command prompt.
3. Navigate to the TeamSpeak 3 Server installation directory.
4. Run the Server Query client by executing the appropriate command, such as ts3server_query, ts3server_minimal_runscript, or ts3server.
5. Once the Server Query client is running, you will see a command prompt indicating a successful connection.

Generating the Server Administrator Privilege Key #

To generate the server administrator privilege key, follow these steps in the Server Query interface:

1. Type the following command and press Enter to log in as a Server Query administrator:
   login serveradmin <serveradmin_password>
   Replace <serveradmin_password> with the server administrator password you set during the initial server setup.
2. After successfully logging in, you will see a response indicating a successful login.
3. To generate the server administrator privilege key, enter the following command:
   tokenadd tokentype=0 tokenid1=0 tokenid2=1 tokendescription=ServerAdminToken
   This command generates a new server administrator privilege key with the description “ServerAdminToken.”
4. Upon successful execution of the command, you will receive a response containing the newly generated privilege key. Make a note of this key as it grants server administrator access.
5. To exit the Server Query interface, type the following command and press Enter:
   quit
