Minecraft /whitelist Command Guide

Control who can join a Java server. Check the server console or operator permissions.

Copyable example

These examples come from the source page. A command typed in player chat begins with /; a server console may use a different entry format.

Use it safely

1. Confirm your game edition, release, and the command or server permission level.
2. Replace example targets and coordinates with real values; use a backup world for changes that remove blocks or entities.
3. Run the smallest possible test and check the response or server log.
4. If the command fails, inspect the argument at the error marker and compare syntax with the current official reference.
