OP Yourself

How to OP yourself

Step 1

Access your Game Panel and navigate to your Minecraft Java server. Once there, go to the Console section in the left sidebar to access the server console.

Step 2

Make sure your server is running and that you have joined the server at least once with the username you want to make operator.

Step 3

In the console, type the following command replacing YourUsername with your actual Minecraft username:

op YourUsername

For example, if your username is Steve, you would type:

op Steve

Step 4

Press Enter to execute the command. You should see a confirmation message in the console that says something like:

Made YourUsername a server operator

Step 5

You can now use operator commands in-game! Type /help in the game chat to see available commands, or use common OP commands like:

  • /gamemode creative - Change to creative mode
  • /give @s diamond 64 - Give yourself 64 diamonds
  • /tp PlayerName - Teleport to another player

Additional Notes:

  • To remove OP permissions, use the command deop YourUsername in the console
  • You can also add operators by editing the ops.json file in the File Manager
  • OP level 4 gives full permissions (default when using the op command)

โœ… That's it! You now have operator permissions on your server. If you have any problems, contact us via Discord (opens in a new tab) so we can help you.
