* **Optional**
* Default is `34872`
* `servePlaceIds`: A list of place IDs that this project may be live-synced to. This feature can help prevent overwriting the wrong game with source from Rojo.
* **Optional**

Starting in Rojo 0.5.0 Beta 1, the `Name` field is no longer required. The name of the top-level instance in a JSON model is now based on its file name, and the `Name` field is now ignored.
Rojo will emit a warning if the `Name` field is specified and does not match the file's name.
## Binary and XML Models
Rojo supports both binary (`.rbxm`) and XML (`.rbxmx`) models generated by Roblox Studio or another tool.
