# Configure Leaderboard in Web Console

To create a new Leaderboard, click the `Create` button in the top right corner. This will display a model where you can enter in the name of the Leaderboard and configure the structure of how the Leaderboard will work.

When you create a Leaderboard, you must configure its settings.

### General Settings

**Name:** A name for your Leaderboard to identify it in the Console.

**Key:** Used to identify the Leaderboard within your game.

**Type:** Select between Player Leaderboards, where leaderboards are associated with specific players (based on their platform ID) or Generic Leaderboards where you can define what the entries are associated to, such as a guild/clan, group, or player data that isn't stored on LootLocker.

**Direction Method:** Should the Leaderboard sort by Ascending or Descending.

**Enable Game API Writes:** Allows the Game API to submit scores.

**Overwrite Score on Submit:** If a Player gets a lower score than before, should it be the current score.

**Enable metadata:** Do you want to store additional information on the Leaderboard.

### Scheduled Resets

**Cron:** Used to identify a reoccurring reset schedule by using Cron expressions. Read more [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron).\
As a bonus, we've added `Quick Cron Values` which you can use to faster set a Schedule.

Read more on how to set up Schedules [here](/game-systems/leaderboards/how-to/use-scheduled-reset-with-rewards.md).

### Rewards

As you Save your Leaderboard, you can enter it and find the `Rewards` tab. Which is where you can Add Rewards.

You can reward a number of things, such as [Assets](/the-basics/core-concepts/assets.md), [Progression Points](/game-systems/progressions.md), [Progression Resets](/game-systems/progressions.md) and even [Currency](https://github.com/lootlocker/gitbook-sync/blob/main/commerce/currencies.md)!

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.lootlocker.com/game-systems/leaderboards/how-to/configure-leaderboard-in-web-console.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
