Is it possible to use NBT tags in commands in Minecraft: Bedrock Edition?
Posted On: January 19, 2023

This question was split into different questions for each workaround. See these two meta posts for more information.


Can you use NBT tags in commands? I’ve tried commands that normally work in Java Edition like:.


give @s minecraft:planks 30 1 {display:{Lore:["Wooden planks"]}}.


give @s stone_pickaxe{Unbreakable:1b}.


give @s item_frame{EntityTag:{Invisible:1b}}.


summon villager ~ ~ ~ {Offers:{Recipes:[{buy:{id:"emerald",Count:5b},sell:{id:"diamond_sword"}}]}}.


summon tnt ~ ~ ~ {Fuse:20s}.

Answer:

If your question was marked as a duplicate of this one, it means your NBT question is not solvable in Bedrock Edition.


Unfortunately, there is no access to NBT tags from commands in Bedrock Edition (formerly Pocket Edition), so this is not possible. There are some workarounds for specific use cases:.


Giving one of the default potions from the Creative Inventory (no custom effects).


Giving an item with properties (click link to see available/unavailable properties).


Using an NBT editor to modify normally unavailable item properties.


Can be used to obtain enchantments that exceed their maximum enchantment level. (No longer works as of 1.16.100).


Using CanPlaceOn and CanDestroy.


Detecting whether a player has an item in their inventory, or in a certain slot.


Getting a block with data to place yourself.


Setting a block with data in a certain position.


Summoning a charged creeper.


Summoning a named mob.


Summoning a baby mob.


Summoning a villager with a certain profession.


Testing for a certain dropped item.


Summoning a horse with specific attributes.


Here are some examples of things that are currently impossible in Bedrock Edition:.


Giving a potion with a custom effect (although you can fake it to some extent using commands).


Placing skulls with custom owners.


Adding attribute modifiers to items.


Summoning a tipped arrow.


Summoning invisible item frames.


Summoning horses with custom speed/jump height/health.


Changing the time until a TNT explosion.


Querying item properties in /clear (note that you can still use data values).


Detecting when a mob is at a certain health.


Referencing JSON files in commands.
