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:

• For Java Edition (PC/Mac), press the T key to open the chat window.
• For Pocket Edition (PE), tap on the chat button at the top of the screen.
• For Xbox One, press the D-Pad (right) on the controller.
• For PS4, press the D-Pad (right) on the controller.
• For Nintendo Switch, press the right arrow button on the controller.
• For Windows 10 Edition, press the T key to open the chat window.
• For Education Edition, press the T key to open the chat window.

2. How to Find your Coordinates

You can easily find your current XYZ coordinates in Minecraft with the following command:

/tp ~ ~ ~

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.

Since we are using the /tp command to teleport ourselves to our current location, Minecraft will display our current coordinates in the lower left corner of the game window.

In this example, our current XYZ coordinates in the map are:

XYZ: (177,76,310)

For simplicity, we are going to round our coordinates, even though the /tp command shows the coordinates with decimal places.
