Palworld
Palworld dedicated servers report into the panel through the agent. The agent reads the server's REST API for live stats and control, and watches the save directory for backups. You enable the REST API in the server config, set an admin password, and point the agent at your save folder. Once it's running you get player counts, CPU and memory, the console, and scheduled backups with one-click rollback.
Before you start
You need an existing Palworld dedicated server you can restart, and your panel key in the format gm_live_xxxx. The agent connects outbound to the panel, so you do not open any inbound ports for it. The game port (8211) and REST port (8212) are between the agent and the server on the same host, not exposed to the panel.
Enable the REST API
The panel controls a Palworld server through its REST API, so you have to turn the API on before the agent can read stats or send commands. Open PalWorldSettings.ini and set these values inside the OptionSettings line:
RESTAPIEnabled=True
RESTAPIPort=8212
AdminPassword="choose-a-strong-password"The AdminPassword is what the agent uses to authenticate against the REST API. Without it the API rejects every request, so do not leave it blank.
Note: On Palworld the file is usually at Pal/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/PalWorldSettings.ini (LinuxServer or WindowsServer depending on your host). Editing the DefaultPalWorldSettings.ini does nothing at runtime. Edit the one under Saved/Config, and remember these settings live on one long OptionSettings=(...) line, so change the values in place rather than adding new lines.
Install the agent
Run the install command on the machine that runs your Palworld server, then restart the server once so the new REST API settings take effect:
curl -fsSL https://get.gamemanage.net | sh- 1Paste your panel key (gm_live_xxxx) when the installer asks for it.
- 2Point the agent at your save directory, the Pal/Saved/SaveGames path for your world. This is what the agent backs up.
- 3Confirm the REST port (8212) and admin password match what you set in PalWorldSettings.ini.
- 4Restart the Palworld server once. The agent connects outbound and the server appears in the panel.
Backups and rollback
Backups are supported for Palworld. The agent archives the save directory you pointed it at on the schedule you set in the panel. To restore, use one-click rollback on the server's backup list. The agent stops the world, swaps in the selected save, and brings it back up. Test a restore on a non-critical world first so you know the save path is correct.
Ports and reference
Keep these straight when you check whether the agent can reach the server:
- Game port 8211 (UDP): where players connect to the world.
- REST port 8212 (TCP): where the agent talks to the server. Local to the host, not exposed to the panel.
- whitelist: false. Whitelist enforcement is not handled through the panel for Palworld, so manage allowed players in your own server config if you use one.
