ARK Survival Ascended has a wide range of dinosaurs that you can use for your survival, and all of them have unique IDs. These IDs allow you to summon the creatures through the admin console command. However, to use the commands and spawn dinos, you must either be playing in single-player mode or have admin access.
This guide lists all the dino IDs in the game, as well as how you can use them. To quickly find a specific dino ID, you can use your browser's search function (ctrl+F on windows).
Dinosaur ID list for ARK Survival Ascended (spawn console commands)
Using IDs and console commands, you can summon not only the normal dinosaurs in ARK Survival Ascended but also bosses, event-specific beasts, and Alpha Variants. Certain dinos, like the Rhyniognatha, can be difficult to tame, but they can be spawned pre-tamed with the help of console commands.

To summon a dinosaur of your choice, you can open "Console Commands" and use the format "Summon Dinosaur's ID_Character_BP_C". For example, if you want to summon a Rex, the command would be "Summon Rex_Character_BP_C".
The above table consists of spawn commands for all the dinosaurs in the game, including event-specific ones, bosses, and alpha variants. If you want to summon one that is already pre-tamed, you can add a level behind the command. This will summon a tamed dino of the same level.
