How to use the result
- Enable commands
In single-player, cheats are enabled when creating the world or by selecting 'Open to LAN' → 'Allow cheats'. On a server, operator permissions are required.
- Open the chat
Key T or /. The command starts with a forward slash — it's already in the string.
- Paste and press Enter
Ctrl+V. The item goes to the player nearest to where the command runs (
@p). - Over 256 characters? Use a command block
Chat accepts commands up to 256 characters long. Use a command block for longer commands. The counter includes the entire command.
What to know about /give
- Choose the syntax for your Minecraft version. Versions up to 1.20.4 use NBT tags. Version 1.20.5 introduced item components, and 1.21.5 removed the enchantment component's wrapper
levels. Using the wrong syntax can cause an error. Select your game version before building the command. - Commands support enchantment levels above the normal maximum. An enchanting table cannot give you Sharpness X, but a command can. The game limits the stored level to 255, although very high levels may have little practical benefit.
- Renamed items appear in italics. Minecraft uses italics for names changed with an anvil. To remove them, set
italic:false— the No italics button sets this for you. - Incompatible enchantments do not combine their effects. A command can put Sharpness and Bane of Arthropods on the same sword, but their effects do not stack as ordinary compatible enchantments do. Conflicts are marked in the list; you can still select them for custom items.
- The chat can hold 256 characters. Longer commands exceed the chat limit. The character counter includes the full command, item name and lore; use a command block for longer results.
- Names and lore support colors. Use formatting codes
&, as in MOTD. They become text components using the same formatter as /tellraw and signs.

Frequently asked questions
Will components be preserved when importing /give?
Yes. Unchanged fields, including custom_data, NBT and removed components, retain their original values. Only the field you edit is changed. If an edit would lose data, you will be asked to adjust the source command. Imported commands are stored for one hour, so save your finished command.
Why doesn't the /give command work on another version?
Minecraft uses three incompatible formats: NBT tags up to 1.20.4, item components from 1.20.5, and enchantments without the levels wrapper from 1.21.5. A command for another version may cause a syntax or component error. Select your version or use the command converter.
Can you give an enchanted item above the maximum level?
Yes. Commands can set levels up to the game's limit of 255, beyond what an enchanting table offers. Very high levels may provide little practical benefit.
