Rust resource shortnames and item IDs

Quick answer: every resource in Rust is listed below with its shortname and item ID, for example Wood (wood), Stones (stones), Metal Fragments (metal.fragments), Sulfur (sulfur), Cloth (cloth) and Low Grade Fuel (lowgradefuel). Give yourself one with inventory.give wood 1. This list comes straight from a Rust dedicated server (Rust build 26431843, read 2026-11-06), and it is refreshed after every Rust update.

This is the game’s own resources category. Every item in one list is on Rust item shortnames, and the commands that take a shortname are on Rust admin commands. Other categories: Weapons, Clothing and armor, Ammo, Tools and explosives, Construction, Deployables, Food, Components, Electrical, Medical, Traps, Fun, Vehicles, keycards and misc.
