Where does the server tracking data come from?

Does anyone know where the atlas server data (connected players, map type) comes from? Is there an API that's available? I'm interested in developing a project.

You should look at RCON

It's a protocol that let you send commands from a remote client

A tool that use RCON to admin Ark servers (works for Atlas too) https://steamcommunity.com/app/346110/discussions/0/530646715638980889/?l=french
