Tips

Turn cheats on

Every command below is refused unless the world has cheats enabled.

On the world-creation screen open More World Options and set Allow Cheats to ON. On a world made without cheats, open the pause menu and choose Open to LAN, then set Allow Cheats to ON. That lasts for the session only.

On Bedrock Edition, turning cheats on disables achievements for that world permanently. Java Edition advancements are not affected.
