How to become admin/operator in Minecraft
In the game you need to be able to manage your server. For this you can assign operator rights with different levels.
Become an operator on your server
To become an operator on your server, you must have access to the console. If your server is rented, your hoster must offer this console. If you installed the server yourself, you already have the console at hand.
If you have access to the console, you can assign operator rights to a specific player with
Code:
/op <player name>If you mistyped a player name or want to remove operator rights from a player, you can use
Code:
/deop <player name>Operator Level
Since version 1.7.9 it is possible to assign different operator levels. These are divided into 4 levels in total:
Level
RightsLevel 1
Ignore spawn-protection
Level 2
Rights to /clear, /difficulty, /effect, /gamemode, /gamerule, /give, /tp and use of command blocks
level 3
rights to /ban, /deop, /kick and /op
Level 4
Rights to all commands incl. /stop
The operator levels cannot be set with the
Code:
/opcommand, it have to be configured manually in the ops.json file.
You can find this file in the root directory of your Minecraft server. If you have a rented Minecraft server, you can connect to it via FTP to it.
Three pieces of information are needed in the file: The UUID, the username and the level you want.
Level example
Code:
[
{
"uuid": "17965c49-b8ad-479f-8d2d-591afc6c62e0",
}, "name": "Notch",
``"level": 4
},
{
"uuid": "68465432-f8a9-4f1e-b58a-8dbe9e5281c4",
}, { "name": "Jeb",
}, "level": 1
}

In this example the player
Code:
Notchgets full rights and can use all commands. The player
Code:
Jebon the other hand has no access to admin command, but is allowed to build in the protected area of the spawn area.
Minecraft UUID
The UUID is automatically created by Mojang with each purchase of Minecraft to give each user a unique identifier in addition to the username/nickname.
This ID can be found out via UUID finders. Based on the player name, the tool determines the corresponding UUID. One possible tool is mcuuid.net.
Hope this has helped!
