# What is it?⤶
⤶
Centralized banning is a (new!) feature within the Rust dedicated server which allows server owners to build a synchronized, external ban list that can be shared across multiple servers.⤶
⤶
# How do I use it?⤶
⤶
You will need a web server (HTTP or HTTPS) which hosts the centralized banning API. We do not have a publicly available implementation of this but it is relatively simple to implement.⤶
⤶
To enable it on your server, simply set the `server.bansServerEndpoint` convar to your web server API endpoint. For example:⤶
```⤶
server.bansServerEndpoint "https://contoso.com/api/rustBans/"⤶
```⤶
⤶
Once set, the Rust dedicated server will query that API endpoint to check if players are banned at the time they join the server.⤶

## Will players be kicked from servers when a ban is added to the endpoint?
