How to Enter the Command

1. Open the Chat Window

The easiest way to run a command in Minecraft is within the chat window. The game control to open the chat window depends on the version of Minecraft:

2. Type the Command

We will cover examples of how to use the /give command to give an item to a player as well as more than one item to a player at a time. We will also explore how to use the DataValue parameter in the /give command to specify a variation of a block.

Give an Item

In the first example, we want to give the player named DigMinecraft a block of gold with the following command:

/give DigMinecraft gold_block

Type the command in the chat window. As you are typing, you will see the command appear in the lower left corner of the game window. Press the Enter key to run the command.

Once the cheat has been entered, the gold block will be added to the player's inventory.

You will see the message "Given [Block of Gold] x 1 to DigMinecraft" appear in the lower left corner of the game window. You have now given 1 block of gold to the player called DigMinecraft.

Give Multiples of Item

In the first example, we did not enter the Amount parameter so only one gold block was given. If want to give multiple blocks at once, you need to specify an Amount in the /give command. The amount goes after the Item that you are giving.

For example, you can give DigMinecraft 4 blocks of gold with the following command:

/give DigMinecraft gold_block 4

Type the command in the chat window and press the Enter key to run the command.

In this example, you have specified an amount of 4 in the /give command.

You will see the message "Given [Block of Gold] x 4 to DigMinecraft" appear in the lower left corner of the game window. Now DigMinecraft will be given 4 blocks of gold that is added to the player's inventory.

Give Variation of an Item

The last example that we want to cover is how to give an item to player when the minecraft name refers to more than one variation of the block. For example, planks is the name assigned to all 6 types of wood planks (oak, acacia, birch, dark oak, jungle, and spruce). If you just specify planks in the /give command, you will always be given an oak plank.

But how can you give a player jungle wood planks instead of oak planks? Easy enough, just add a DataValue to the end of the /give command. Sometimes, people will refer to the DataValue as damage value or data value.

For example, you can give 2 jungle wood planks to the nearest player with the following command:

/give @p planks 2 3

Type the command in the chat window and press the Enter key to run the command.

In this example, we have used a DataValue of 3 to specify the variation of plank that we want to give (ie. 3=Jungle Wood Plank). See a complete list of Minecraft IDs that is interactive and searchable.

Item	Description (Minecraft ID Name)	Minecraft Data Value
	Oak Wood Plank (planks)	0
	Spruce Wood Plank (planks)	1
	Birch Wood Plank (planks)	2
	Jungle Wood Plank (planks)	3
	Acacia Wood Plank (planks)	4
	Dark Oak Wood Plank (planks)	5

You will see the message "Given [Jungle Wood Planks] x 2 to DigMinecraft" appear in the lower left corner of the game window. Now the nearest player (DigMinecraft) will be given 2 jungle wood planks that are added to the player's inventory.

Congratulations, you have learned how to use the /give command in Minecraft.
