About

Seaweed is a resource obtained by harvesting aquatic plants and structures in water across the map. It serves as a crafting ingredient in various recipes and can be used as part of taming food for certain creatures.

Spawn it with its GFI code using the standard cheat command. It stacks in inventory, making it practical to hand out in bulk for testing recipes or stocking taming supplies on your server.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I add the Seaweed to a starter kit or loadout?
Include cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Seaweed 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 give myself the Seaweed with a cheat command?
Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Seaweed 1 0 0. That gives you one Seaweed 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 spawn the Seaweed as a blueprint instead of a finished item?
Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Seaweed 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).
Where can I copy the Seaweed spawn command?
Use the copy buttons in the Spawn Commands and Blueprint Path sections near the top of this page. Each copies the full Seaweed command to your clipboard in one click, ready to paste into the console.
Is the Seaweed spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?
Yes. The Seaweed'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.
Can I get the Seaweed without spawning it?
Yes. The Seaweed 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.
Why isn't my Seaweed spawn command working?
Check three things: admin access is enabled (enablecheats on servers), the code is typed exactly (PrimalItemResource_Seaweed), and all three trailing numbers are present. Copying cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Seaweed 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.
What is the Seaweed used for?
Seaweed is a resource obtained by harvesting aquatic plants and structures in water across the map. It serves as a crafting ingredient in various recipes and can be used as part of taming food for certain creatures.
What items are related to the Seaweed?
See the Related section at the bottom of this page for items commonly used alongside the Seaweed, or open Browse Games to explore the full ARK: Survival Ascended database.
What's the full blueprint path of the Seaweed?
The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/Abyss/CoreBlueprints/Resources/PrimalItemResource_Seaweed.PrimalItemResource_Seaweed'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/Abyss/CoreBlueprints/Resources/PrimalItemResource_Seaweed.PrimalItemResource_Seaweed'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.
Does the Seaweed spawn command work in single-player and multiplayer?
Yes, the command is identical in both. Single-player has cheats enabled by default; multiplayer just requires an admin login first. The Seaweed then spawns the same way.
Can I spawn the Seaweed over RCON or on a dedicated server?
Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Seaweed 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.
How do I spawn multiple Seaweed at once?
Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Seaweed 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Seaweed. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.
What is the GFI code for the Seaweed?
The GFI code for the Seaweed is PrimalItemResource_Seaweed. GFI matches the item by its short blueprint name, so cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Seaweed 1 0 0 is the fastest way to spawn it without typing the full blueprint path.
What does the Seaweed do in ARK: Survival Ascended?
A resource item gathered from underwater environments, used in crafting recipes and taming.
What is the Seaweed class used for in mods or spawn tools?
Spawn managers, loot-table editors, and RCON macros reference the Seaweed by its class PrimalItemResource_Seaweed_C or GFI PrimalItemResource_Seaweed. Both uniquely identify it in ARK: Survival Ascended.
What is the class name for the Seaweed?
The class name for the Seaweed is PrimalItemResource_Seaweed_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.
What do the numbers in the Seaweed spawn command mean?
In cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Seaweed 1 0 0, the code identifies the Seaweed, then the three numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag (0 = item, 1 = blueprint). So it spawns one standard Seaweed.
Is the Seaweed blueprint path case-sensitive?
Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/Abyss/CoreBlueprints/Resources/PrimalItemResource_Seaweed.PrimalItemResource_Seaweed'" must be typed exactly, including capitalization and the wrapping quotes. Copy it from this page to avoid a typo that returns an empty spawn.
What's the difference between the Seaweed GFI code and its blueprint path?
The GFI code PrimalItemResource_Seaweed is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/Abyss/CoreBlueprints/Resources/PrimalItemResource_Seaweed.PrimalItemResource_Seaweed'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Seaweed.
How do I open the console to spawn the Seaweed?
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 Seaweed spawn code from this page.
Which game is the Seaweed from?
The Seaweed is from ARK: Survival Ascended. Every ID, code, and command on this page is specific to ARK: Survival Ascended and its current live build.
When was the Seaweed data last updated?
The Seaweed entry was last verified on GameServersCodex on June 28, 2026. We track the live ARK: ASA build, so the IDs and commands here reflect the current patch.
How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Seaweed?
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 Seaweed spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.
How do I spawn a higher-quality Seaweed?
The second number is quality, where 0 is primitive and higher values roll toward ascendant. cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_Seaweed 1 100 0 attempts a top tier Seaweed. Quality only affects items that support tiers; on others it's ignored.
