txAdmin is the web-based management interface that ships with every FXServer (the FiveM server software). It gives you a live console, player management, bans and warns, restart schedules, announcements, and — most importantly for a new server — a setup wizard that can deploy a complete framework like QBCore or ESX in minutes. This guide walks you through first-time txAdmin setup on your Wasabi Hosting server.

First Start: Find Your PIN and URL

When your FiveM server starts for the first time, txAdmin launches before the game server itself and prints its access details to the console.
1

Start the server

In the Wasabi Hosting Game Panel, press Start and watch the live console.
2

Copy the txAdmin URL and PIN

Within a few seconds the console prints a block similar to:
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ txAdmin is starting on http://<ip>:40120    │
│ Use the PIN below to register:              │
│              [ 1234 ]                       │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────┘
Note both the URL and the 4-digit PIN. The PIN is temporary — if it expires, restart the server to generate a new one.
3

Open txAdmin in your browser

Visit the URL from the console (txAdmin’s default port is 40120; the exact address shown in your console is always the correct one).
4

Link your Cfx.re account

Enter the PIN, then click Link with Cfx.re account and sign in. Your Cfx.re account becomes the master admin of this txAdmin instance — it can never be removed by other admins.
Anyone with the URL and a valid PIN can claim your txAdmin instance. Complete the registration right after the first start, and never share the PIN.

The Setup Wizard

After linking your account, txAdmin runs a one-time setup wizard.
1

Name your server

This is txAdmin’s internal profile name — your public server name is set later via sv_hostname in server.cfg.
2

Choose a deployment type

3

Enter your Cfx.re license key

During deployment txAdmin asks for a server license key. Generate one for free at the Keymaster:
  1. Sign in with your Cfx.re account and click New server.
  2. Fill in your server details (use your Wasabi server’s IP).
  3. Copy the generated key and paste it into the setup wizard.
The key ends up as sv_licenseKey in your server.cfg.
4

Finish and start the server

Review the summary and let txAdmin deploy. When it finishes, press the big Start button in txAdmin — your FiveM server boots and becomes joinable on port 30120.

Restart Schedules and Announcements

Regular restarts keep long-running FiveM servers healthy by clearing memory leaks from resources.
  • Restart schedule: in txAdmin go to Settings → Restart Schedule and add times (e.g. 06:00 and 18:00). txAdmin warns players in chat before each restart automatically.
  • Announcements: use Settings → Discord and the announcement options to broadcast scheduled messages in-game, or send one-off announcements from the txAdmin dashboard.
Schedule restarts for your community’s quietest hours, and pair them with a scheduled backup in the Game Panel shortly before the restart.

txAdmin Backups vs. Panel Backups

txAdmin does not back up your files — its “backup” features only cover its own settings and player database. For real protection:
  • Use the Backups tab in the Wasabi Hosting Game Panel for full-server file backups — see the backups guide.
  • If your framework uses a MySQL database (QBCore/ESX do), make sure your backup routine includes the database, since player money, items, and characters live there.
