About

The Golden Nugget is a resource item that appears in your inventory as a discrete, non-stackable object. Admins spawn it using its GFI code when setting up crafting stations, filling trader inventories, or testing recipes that call for it.

Because it has no numeric item ID, always use the GFI spawn command rather than GiveItem. The command accepts standard quantity and quality parameters if you need multiple copies or variable rarity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which game is the Golden Nugget from?
The Golden Nugget is from ARK: Survival Ascended. Every ID, code, and command on this page is specific to ARK: Survival Ascended and its current live build.
What is the blueprint path for the Golden Nugget?
The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/Genesis/Missions/Retrieve/RetrieveItems/GoldenNugget/PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget.PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/Genesis/Missions/Retrieve/RetrieveItems/GoldenNugget/PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget.PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.
How do I add the Golden Nugget to a starter kit or loadout?
Include cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget 1 0 0 in your server's kit or spawn script, and set the quantity argument to hand out multiples. Pair it with other item commands from the Codex to build a full loadout.
How do I spawn multiple Golden Nugget at once?
Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Golden Nugget. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.
What do the numbers in the Golden Nugget spawn command mean?
In cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget 1 0 0, the code identifies the Golden Nugget, then the three numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag (0 = item, 1 = blueprint). So it spawns one standard Golden Nugget.
Where can I copy the Golden Nugget spawn command?
Use the copy buttons in the Spawn Commands and Blueprint Path sections near the top of this page. Each copies the full Golden Nugget command to your clipboard in one click, ready to paste into the console.

What does the Golden Nugget do in ARK: Survival Ascended?
A resource item spawnable via GFI code, used in crafting or as a trade good depending on server configuration.
Why isn't my Golden Nugget spawn command working?
Check three things: admin access is enabled (enablecheats on servers), the code is typed exactly (PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget), and all three trailing numbers are present. Copying cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.
Is the Golden Nugget blueprint path case-sensitive?
Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/Genesis/Missions/Retrieve/RetrieveItems/GoldenNugget/PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget.PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget'" must be typed exactly, including capitalization and the wrapping quotes. Copy it from this page to avoid a typo that returns an empty spawn.
Can I spawn the Golden Nugget over RCON or on a dedicated server?
Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget 1 0 0. If your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat". It works the same on hosted, self-hosted, and RCON setups.
Can I get the Golden Nugget without spawning it?
Yes. The Golden Nugget can also be obtained through normal ARK: Survival Ascended progression. Admins usually spawn it for speed when testing, running events, or outfitting players, which is what the commands on this page are for.
What's the difference between the Golden Nugget GFI code and its blueprint path?
The GFI code PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/Genesis/Missions/Retrieve/RetrieveItems/GoldenNugget/PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget.PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Golden Nugget.
How do I spawn a higher-quality Golden Nugget?
The second number is quality, where 0 is primitive and higher values roll toward ascendant. cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget 1 100 0 attempts a top tier Golden Nugget. Quality only affects items that support tiers; on others it's ignored.
What is the Golden Nugget class used for in mods or spawn tools?
Spawn managers, loot-table editors, and RCON macros reference the Golden Nugget by its class PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget_C or GFI PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget. Both uniquely identify it in ARK: Survival Ascended.
Is the Golden Nugget spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?
Yes. The Golden Nugget's class name, GFI code, item ID, and blueprint path are reproduced exactly from the live game data and re-checked each patch, so you can copy them straight into your console.
How do I spawn the Golden Nugget as a blueprint instead of a finished item?
Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget 1 0 1. The last number is the blueprint flag, where 0 gives the crafted item and 1 gives its blueprint (for craftable items; on items with no blueprint the flag is simply ignored).
What's the Golden Nugget class name?
The class name for the Golden Nugget is PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget_C. Class names end in _C and identify the item's blueprint at runtime, which makes them useful for spawn tools, mods, and RCON macros.
How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Golden Nugget?
In single-player, cheats are on by default. On a dedicated or hosted server, log in as admin first with enablecheats <AdminPassword>, then run the Golden Nugget spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.
How do I spawn the Golden Nugget in ARK: Survival Ascended?
Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_GoldenNugget 1 0 0. That gives you one Golden Nugget instantly. The three numbers after the code are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag. Raise the first to spawn a stack, or set the last to 1 to receive it as a blueprint instead of a finished item. Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.
How do I open the console to spawn the Golden Nugget?
On PC, press Tab to open the admin console, paste the command, and press Enter. On Xbox and PlayStation, open the pause menu and use the on-screen command bar. Then drop in the Golden Nugget spawn code from this page.
