Minecraft:Permission level

Permission level is used to describe the permissions a player or a command executor has.

For example, Template:In, Template:Cmd can't be executed in a command block, because this command requires the executor to have a permission level of 3, while command blocks have a permission level of only 2.

Description

Levels are incremental, meaning level n allows anything that any level less than n allows.

Java Edition

Template:IN, the permission levels may allow players to configure certain game settings:

Level 0 – Operator

• The player can enable the Minecraft:TPS graph in the debug screen.
• The player can see Minecraft:command block output‌ in chat, if the game rule is enabled.
• The player can see command output from other operators and the server console if broadcast-console-to-ops is enabled.

Level 1 – Moderator

• The player can bypass Minecraft:spawn protection.

Level 2 – Gamemaster

• More Minecraft:commands are available.
• The player can use Minecraft:command blocks.
• The player can copy the server-side NBT data of an entity or a block entity when pressing the Template:Key Minecraft:debug hotkey, and copy the client-side NBT data when pressing Template:Key.
• The player can use Template:Key (Minecraft:game mode switcher) and Template:Key debug hotkey (toggle between Minecraft:Spectator and the previous Minecraft:game mode).
• The player can change or lock Minecraft:difficulty in Minecraft:Options screen. Note that the player in a singleplayer world or the owner of a LAN world can change or lock difficulty without a permission level of 2.
• With "Operator Items Tab" Minecraft:option turned on, the player can find operator items and an "Operator Utilities" tab in the Minecraft:creative inventory.
• Minecraft:Target selectors can be used in commands like Template:Cmd and Minecraft:raw JSON texts.

Level 3 – Admin

• Commands related to multiplayer management are available.

Level 4 – Owner

• All commands are available, including commands related to server management.

Player Permissions

The Player Permissions menu Template:In.

<section begin="player-permissions"/>

Player permissions dictate what the player can and cannot do in a multiplayer game. For example, actions such as building, Minecraft:mining, attacking mobs or players can be disabled or restricted by each of their own permissions. They can be configured individually or by preset roles on a separate screen accessible in the Minecraft:pause menu.

There are four roles which can set specific permissions for players:

• Operator, which enables all permissions, including operator commands, world settings, teleportation, and all of member permissions.
• Member, which enables mining, building, world and entities interactions.
• Visitor, which only lets players view or observe the world only, with none of the permissions enabled.
• Custom, which enables specific permissions set by operators. Following permissions can be applied for custom role:

Option	Description	Default
Build	Allows the player to place blocks and entities in the world.	File:Ore UI - Toggle ON Button (Bedrock).png
Mine	Allows the player to break blocks in the world.	File:Ore UI - Toggle ON Button (Bedrock).png
Use doors and switches	Allows the player to use Minecraft:doors, Minecraft:levers, and Minecraft:buttons.	File:Ore UI - Toggle ON Button (Bedrock).png
Open containers	Allows the player to open the GUI of Minecraft:containers (Minecraft:chests, Minecraft:hoppers, Minecraft:crafters, etc).	File:Ore UI - Toggle ON Button (Bedrock).png
Attack Players	Allows the player to deal damage to Minecraft:players.	File:Ore UI - Toggle ON Button (Bedrock).png
Attack Mobs	Allows the player to deal damage to Minecraft:mobs.	File:Ore UI - Toggle ON Button (Bedrock).png
Operator Commands	Allows the player to execute operator Minecraft:commands. Also sets the player's permission level depending on the environment, see below.	Member: File:Ore UI - Toggle OFF Button (Bedrock).png Operator: File:Ore UI - Toggle ON Button (Bedrock).png
Teleport	Allows the player to use the Template:Cmd command.	Member: File:Ore UI - Toggle OFF Button (Bedrock).png Operator: File:Ore UI - Toggle ON Button (Bedrock).png

The owner of the world can change any player permissions, regardless of its own permissions. Other players can't change any player permissions unless if they are Minecraft:operators, but they can still view them for themselves and other joined players.

Player permissions differ from Minecraft:permission level, the latter enables and restricts specific commands, requiring different level for each command. Additionally, the "Operator Commands" permission if enabled sets the player's permission level to 3 in singleplayer or Minecraft:LAN world. In Minecraft:Bedrock Dedicated Server, it sets the permission level to 1.<section end="player-permissions"/>
