# How to give OP or Operator status to a player on a Bedrock server

OP (Operator) is the highest permission level on a Minecraft Bedrock server. An OP player can run every command, change gamemode, teleport, and so on. Give OP only to people you fully trust on the server.

!!! warning "Allow Cheats must be ON"
    Make sure **Allow Cheats** is enabled in the Startup menu. If it is off, the player will not be able to use any commands after you grant OP, and the `[/]` slash indicator will not appear in chat.
    See [How to enable cheats on a Bedrock server](./aktivasi-cheats.md) if you need to turn it on.

## Steps

1. Open `https://panel.nexuscloud.id/`.
2. Click your server.
3. Open the **Console** menu (it is the first item in the side menu; if you have scrolled down, scroll back up to find the **Console** link).
4. The player you want to OP **must be online** on the server so the system detects the username when you type the command in the console.
5. In the console, find the **Execute Command** field.
6. Type `op <playername>` — for example `op nexusid2`.
7. Press **Enter** or click **Send**.

## Verify

In Minecraft Bedrock, join the server with the OP account and try a command in chat. If OP is active, your command will show the `[/]` slash icon next to it. If the `[/]` icon does not appear, Allow Cheats is still off — enable it and re-grant OP.

## Tips

- To remove OP later, use `deop <playername>` from the same **Execute Command** field.
- The Bedrock OP list lives in `permissions.json`. Each entry has a `permission` field — `operator` is full admin, `member` is a regular player.
- Unlike Java, the player **does** need to be online when you run `op`, because Bedrock identifies players by their current Xbox/Gamertag session.
