ARK API is an extension that supports third-party plugins, for example Discord integration or shared chat between servers.
To install ARK API, follow these steps:
- Open Mod Manager.
- You will see several prepared plugins. Before installing any of them, install ArkApi for Plugins.
- Click Install.
- ARK API is now installed and you can choose from the prepared plugins.
To install a plugin, click Install next to it. Most plugins also provide a configuration file, which you can find under Configuration Files.
If the required plugin is not listed, you can request that it be added by opening a support ticket. Alternatively, upload it using SFTP or File Manager to ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkApi\Plugins\plugin folder.
Free ARK plugins are available at https://gameservershub.com/forums/resources/categories/ark-free-resources.17/.
You can now start the server.
Logs created by ARK API are available in Log Manager.
To update a plugin, click Update in Mod Manager. We recommend backing up the plugin configuration before updating it.
