How to Use Minecraft Commands

  1. Enable cheats when creating a world or make sure you have operator permissions on a server.
  2. Open chat with / to start a command.
  3. Enter the command exactly as shown and confirm the result in-game.

Some commands require operator permissions, creative mode, or a server configuration that allows cheats.

Tips

  • Test commands in a copy of your world first.
  • Keep backups before using commands that change inventories, terrain, or gamerules.
  • Check the Minecraft version because command syntax can change.
