ESX.GetPlayers

ESX server documentation with a FiveM Lua example.

Summary

Returns all online players' server IDs in ESX. Used for admin actions, broadcasts, and iterating the server.

Returns

table — array of player source IDs.

Example

for _, src in ipairs(ESX.GetPlayers()) do
  local xPlayer = ESX.GetPlayerFromId(src)
  -- per-player logic
end

Common pitfalls

  • Returns IDs, not xPlayer objects — fetch each with GetPlayerFromId.
  • Avoid heavy per-player work every tick.
