# Function Reference

The code runtime built into the server includes a module with functions to implement various logic and custom behavior, enabling you to define authoritative code and conditions on input received by clients. Learn more about it in the [Server Framework Basics](../../) documentation.

This page lists all functions available within Nakama and their respective parameters, with corresponding code samples for each.
If you haven't already, see the documentation on using the [server framework](../_index.md).
