+**Purpose**:
+This document outlines some of the prerequisites as well as deployment process for an ARK: Survival Ascended Server
+
+## Prerequisites
+We need to install the Visual C++ Redistributable for both x86 and x64
+- [Download Visual C++ Redistributable (x64)](https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe)
+- [Download Visual C++ Redistributable (x86)](https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x86.exe)
+
+
+## Run Unreal Engine Certificate Trust Script
+There is an issue where if you run a dedicated server, part of that requires API access to Epic Games and that will not work without installing a few certificates.  The original Github page can be found [here](https://github.com/Ch4r0ne/UnrealEngine_Dedicated_Server_Install_CA/tree/main), which details the reason for it in more detail.
+
+- [Download Unreal Engine Certificate Install Script](https://github.com/Ch4r0ne/UnrealEngine_Dedicated_Server_Install_CA/blob/main/Install_Certificate.ps1)
+
+!!! note "Run as Administrator"
+    You need to run the script as an administrator.  This will require that you run `Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass` in an admin powershell session beforehand, then run the script with something like the following set of commands:
+    ```
+    Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass
+    CD "C:\Users\nicole.rappe\Downloads"
+    .\Install_Certificate.ps1
+    ```
