Permission level is used to describe permissions of a player or an command executor.
For example, in Bedrock Edition, /setmaxplayers
can't be executed in a command block, because this command requires executor to have permission of level 3, while command blocks have a permission level of only 1.

- level 1 - Player can bypass spawn protection.
- level 2 - Player or executor can use more commands (see Commands) and player can use command blocks. (Cheat commands)
- level 3 - Player or executor can use more commands. (Multiplayer management)
- level 4 - Player or executor can use all of the commands. (Server management)

- In different levels, the corresponding command can be used by the player. All levels inherit commands from levels before them.
Definition[]
Java Edition[]
In Java Edition, permission level can be 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4.
- A command block or a minecart with command block has permission level of 2.
- The console of a server has permission level of 4.
- A function has permission level of 2 (but it can be changed in server.properties).
- For a player:
- If the player is an op in dedicated server, their permission level is specified in ops file, and its default value is specified in server.properties.
- If the player is in a singleplayer world or is the owner of a LAN world, and cheats are enabled, permission level is 4.
- If the player is in a cheat-allowed LAN world, permission level is 4.
- Otherwise, permission level is 0.[needs testing]
Bedrock Edition[]
In Bedrock Edition, permission level can be 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4.
- A command block or a minecart with command block has permission level of 1.
- The console of a server has permission level of 4.
- A function as well as a script in Add-ons has permission level of 1.
- For a player:
- If in dedicated server, the player's "Operator Commands" option is enabled in the "Player Permission" screen, their permission level is 1 by default (which can be changed in server.properties).
- If in a singleplayer world or a LAN world, the player's "Operator Commands" option is enabled in the "Player Permission" screen, permission level is 3.
- Otherwise, the player's permission level is 0.[needs testing]
Note that permission level differs from level in pause menu screen and "Player Permission" screen in Bedrock Edition, which includes Visitor/Member/Operator/Custom. However, operator in singleplayer world always have command permission level of 3, because its Operator Commands is enabled. Similarly, visitors and members have a permission level of 0.
