# Managing Player Permissions First of all, when you make changes to your `ranks_config.json` file, you can simply use the command `perm.reload` to reload the configuration rather than restarting the server everytime. ### How to set user ranks ? In order to set a user rank you can use the command `perm.setrank`.\ The command syntax is `perm.setrank `.\ Here's some examples : ``` perm.setrank TeK admin perm.setrank TeK user perm.setrank 76561198127513494 vip ``` ### How to grant/revoke permissions ? If you have all your ranks ready but you just want to give a few extra permissions to a specific user, you can use the `perm.grant` and `perm.revoke` commands.\ The commands syntax is `perm.grant ` (same for revoke)\ Here's some examples : ``` perm.grant TeK worldprotection.* perm.grant TeK *.* perm.grant TeK myplugin.commands.hi perm.revoke TeK myplugin.commands.hi perm.revoke 76561198127513494 myplugin.commands.hi ``` ## RDS Built in permissions list RDS by default have a few permissions available for its built in features.\ Here's the list of them. * chat.say - Send messages in the chat. Even without it players can use chat commands. * chat.kick - Admin command used to kick users from the server. * chat.ban - Admin command used to permanently ban users from the server. * chat.unban - Admin command used to unban someone with his steamid. * anticheat.bypass - Bypass the anticheat punishments. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
