How to create and add a GSLT key to The Forest server

Header image

GSLT (Game Server Login Token) is an essential element that enables The Forest server to connect with official Steam servers. Without the token, the server cannot be displayed on public server lists, making it significantly harder for players to join the game. With GSLT, your server will become part of the Steam network, increasing its credibility and ensuring greater security. The token is a universal identifier assigned to the server, and creating it requires just a few simple steps. You need to log into your Steam account, go to the account management section, and generate your own key. In this guide, we will explain how to generate a GSLT key and how to add it to The Forest server.
