Tags in data packs allow players to group items, blocks, fluids, entity types or functions together using JSON files.
Usage
To utilize block, item, or function tags the JSON files must be placed in a data pack inside the data/(namespace)/tags/blocks, data/(namespace)/tags/items or data/(namespace)/tags/functions folder respectively.
The game itself also uses tags. Vanilla block tags are used for various block properties. Vanilla item tags are used for various item properties, vanilla advancement files and vanilla recipe files. There are no vanilla function tags since there are no vanilla functions, but the game reads from certain function tags under the minecraft namespace.
Folder Structure
|
Block Tags
Block tags can be called when testing for block arguments in commands with #(namespace):(tag), which will succeed if the block matches any of the blocks specified in the tag.
Item Tags
Item tags can be called when testing for item arguments in commands with #(namespace):(tag) or in recipes and advancements using "tag": "(namespace):(tag)", which will succeed if the item matches any of the items specified in the tag.
Function Tags
Function tags can be called in the /function command with #(namespace):(tag), which will run all the functions specified in the tag in the order of their first appearance in a tag[upcoming: JE edition 1.14.1]. If a function is referenced multiple times in a tag and its sub-tags, it will only be ran once.
Moreover, functions tagged in the minecraft:tick tag will run every tick at the start of the tick and functions tagged in minecraft:load will run once at the start of the tick after a server (re)load.

An '''amethyst shard''' is a crystal obtained from mining a fully grown [[amethyst cluster]] or can be obtained from chests in [[Ancient City|ancient cities]].
== Obtaining ==
=== Mining ===
An [[amethyst cluster]] mined using a non-[[Silk Touch]], non-[[Fortune]] [[pickaxe]] drops 4 amethyst shards. When mined using any other tool, [[item]] or mechanism (such as [[explosion]]s or [[piston]]s) it drops 2 shards. The maximum amount of amethyst shards dropped can be increased with Fortune. Fortune I gives a {{frac|1|3}} chance for eight shards, averaging 5.33 shards; Fortune II gives a 25% chance (each) to give eight or 12 shards, averaging 7 shards, and Fortune III gives a 20% chance (each) to give 8, 12, or 16 shards, averaging 8.8 shards.
If the amethyst cluster in any of its growth stages is mined using a pickaxe enchanted with [[Silk Touch]], it drops itself rather than amethyst shards.

=== Allay duplication ===
If an amethyst shard is given to an [[allay]] that is currently dancing to an active [[jukebox]], the allay emits heart particles, consumes the amethyst shard and duplicates into another allay. After this, there is a 5 minute cool down until both allays can be duplicated like this again.

'''Coal''' is a mineral [[item]] mainly obtained from [[Coal Ore|coal ore]]. It is primarily used for crafting [[torches]] and [[Campfire|campfires]], as well as [[fuel]].
== Obtaining ==
=== Chest loot ===
{{see also|Coal Ore#Natural generation}}
{{LootChestItem|coal}}
=== Mining ===
[[Coal ore]] are mined using a [[pickaxe]] and drops 1 piece of coal. If the pickaxe is enchanted with [[Fortune]], it may drop an extra piece per level of Fortune, up to a maximum of 4 with Fortune III.
=== Mob loot ===
[[Wither skeleton]]s have a {{Frac|1|3}} chance of dropping a single coal upon death. The maximum amount of coal is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]]. The chance of a wither skeleton ''not'' dropping any coal can be found using the formula <code>2 / (Looting Level + 3)</code>. For example, Looting III gives a {{frac|1|3}} chance of not dropping any coal. All other amounts have an equal chance of occurring.

== Usage ==
=== Crafting ingredient ===
{{crafting usage|Coal}}
=== Fuel ===
When used in a [[furnace]] as a fuel, a piece of coal lasts 80 seconds (smelting up to 8 items), like [[charcoal]]. Coal used as fuel lasts more than 5 times longer than [[wood planks]] or [[wood]] logs used as fuel, being more efficient than any other use of wood for smelting {{in|je}}, but outstripped by [[wooden slabs]] {{in|be}}.
Coal and charcoal are also the only fuels accepted by [[Minecart with Furnace|furnace minecart]]s. They provide approximately four minutes of transit each.
=== Trading ===
Novice-level fisherman [[villager]]s have a 50% chance to buy 10 coal for one [[emerald]].
{{IN|java}}, novice-level armorer and toolsmith villagers have a 40% chance of offering to buy 15 coal for one emerald. Novice-level weaponsmith villagers and apprentice-level butcher villagers have {{frac|2|3}} chance of offering to buy 15 coal for one emerald.
{{IN|bedrock}}, novice-level armorer, toolsmith, and weaponsmith villagers and apprentice-level butcher villagers buy 15 coal for one emerald.
[[trading|Trade]]s that involve coal cannot be substituted by [[charcoal]].

Tags and Bits are items exclusive to the [[Java Edition 23w13a or b|23w13a_or_b]] [[Easter eggs#April Fools|April Fools' joke]] snapshot from 2023. They are used to craft in-game representations of [[NBT format|NBT tags]].
==Obtaining==
A [[stonecutter]] can be used to cut a [[Name Tag|name tag]] into either 16 "Name" or 16 "Tag" items. These can be cut into 16 Bit items each.
{{Stonecutting
|head=1
|showdescription=1
|Name Tag
|Name, 16; Tag, 16
|description=The resulting "Name" items must be named in an [[anvil]].
}}
{{Stonecutting
|showdescription=
|Name; Tag
|Bit, 16
|foot=1
}}
To be able to proceed from here the <code>nbt_crafting</code> vote must be approved. Bits can be used in a crafting table to craft Left Curly, Right Curly, Left Square, and Right Square. In appears like these are the only tag items that can be crafted from Bits.
A [[Crafting Table|crafting table]] can be used to convert a "Tag" item into a "Byte Tag." The amount of [[stick]]s added to the crafting recipe specifies the value of the Byte, as a [[wikipedia:Signed number representations#Two's complement|signed 8-bit value]]. For example, a "Tag" and a full stack of sticks make a Byte with the value <code>64b</code>, while 255 sticks result in <code>-1b</code>. Only one of the sticks is consumed. Two Bytes can be crafted into a "Short Tag" (equivalent to 16 bit), two Shorts into an "Int Tag" (equivalent to 32 bit), and two Ints into a "Long Tag" (equivalent to 64 bit). Many other combinations that form either 16, 32, or 64 bit are possible. For example, two Shorts and an Int make a Long. When combining values, their digits are stuck together in the given order, e.g. <code>1b</code> and <code>0b</code> make <code>256s</code> (equivalent to 0100<sub>16</sub> in [[wikipedia:Hexadecimal|hexadecimal]]). Undoing any of these crafting actions in e.g. a stonecutter is not possible.
"Float" and "Double Tags" can be crafted by adding one or two [[boat]]s to any numeric tag. A "String Tag" is crafted with a "Tag" and a piece of [[string]].

"Name" and "String Tags" must be named in an [[anvil]] before they can be used. Unnamed Names and Strings always produce a "Sssyntax Error". None of the other tag items can be named.
All these items can be combined in a crafting table to form a short sequence of JSON code, as long as the resulting syntax is valid. For example:
*A pair of Curlies that enclose a named "Name" item and some value, e.g. a Byte, create a "Compound Tag" with the content <code>{Example:0b}</code>.
**Because of the limited size of the crafting table only 3 name-value pairs can be put between Curlies at a time. Compound Tags of any length can be created by concatenating two or more Compound Tags.
**An empty pair of Curlies produces an empty Compound Tag with the content <code>{}</code>.
*A pair of Square brackets that enclose any number of values, e.g. 7 Bytes, create a "List Tag" with the content <code>[0b,0b,0b,0b,0b,0b,0b]</code>.
**Because of the limited size of the crafting table only 7 values can be put between Square brackets at a time. List Tags of any length can be created by concatenating two or more List Tags.
**An empty pair of Square brackets produces an empty List with the content <code>[]</code>.
**"Name" items cannot be used in a List.
The resulting Compound and List Tags can be used as values in other Compound and List Tags, as deeply nested as you want.
==Usage==
Tags appear to have no further functionality. They cannot be eaten or placed in the world, except in an item frame, as each other item can. However, Compound Tags with values like <code>{Enchantments:[{id:"minecraft:sharpness",lvl:127b}]}</code> will show the [[Enchanting|enchantment]] glint and actually act accordingly when used.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/129xdyl/i_figure_out_how_the_nbtcrafting_in_the_vote/</ref> This appears to work with many weapon and tool [[Enchanting#Summary of enchantments by item|enchantments]].
In theory, an extremely lucky <code>replace_recipe_output</code> vote can change the crafting recipe for compound tags to output something else. When cheats are enabled you can test this with a command like <code>/vote rule minecraft:replace_recipe_output approve {key:"minecraft:compound_tag",value:"minecraft:netherite_sword"}</code>. However, as long as this vote is approved no other compound tag can be crafted. Use <code>/vote rule minecraft:replace_recipe_output repeal *</code> to undo all recipe replacements.
In combination with the <code>midas_touch</code> vote tag items can be converted into [[Gold Ingot|gold ingots]]. These retain their NBT data. When the world is loaded in another version of the game tag items disappear, but gold ingots persist.
==Trivia==
*This implies that a [[Name Tag|name tag]] is 128 bit.
*Compound and list tags are special in so far that the value they show in their [[tooltip]] is not merely a property of the item, but their ''actual'' [[NBT format|NBT data]]. This is also the reason why naming them is disabled as that would mess up the NBT data.
*The snapshot also contains an [[History of textures/Unused textures|unused texture]] for an {{ItemLink|End Tag}}.

The camera can be obtained in the [[Creative inventory]] in ''Minecraft Education''. It can be obtained either by NBT editors, inventory editors, or glitches in Bedrock Edition.
To get the block form of the camera in Bedrock Edition using an NBT editor, you need to set the item name of the block in the inventory slot (<code>name:</code> ) to <code>item.camera</code>, then you need to add a compound tag called <code>Block</code> and inside of that put the int tag <code>version: 18040335</code> and the text tag <code>name: minecraft:camera</code> into the block compound tag. For the usable "[[spawn egg]]" form of the camera, you only need to set the item name of the block in the inventory slot (<code>name:</code> ) to <code>camera</code>; you do not need to add the block compound for this form of the camera.
== Usage ==
Using a camera from the [[inventory]] captures a first-person screenshot. It can also be placed, creating a camera [[entity]] that can track the user, and take pictures from the camera's perspective. Photos that are taken using the camera appear in the [[portfolio]].
Close-up snapshots of an [[item]] on the ground can be taken by holding the Shift key while right-clicking.
Photos that are taken with the camera block are stored in <code>%localappdata%\Packages\MinecraftUWP_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\screenshots</code>.

|To use a camera, equip it in the [[player]]'s hand, then look in the direction the player wants the picture to be taken. Long-press the screen, and a camera [[drops]] to the ground where the player are standing. Step back, then press on the camera until it starts emitting smoke [[particles]]. The smoke means a picture has been taken, and the camera may disappear immediately afterward.
|Cameras have infinite uses.

=== Future ===
At the Minecraft [[Pocket Edition]] panel at [[MineCon 2012]], as well as one of [[Johan Bernhardsson|Jbernhardsson]]'s livestreams, it was stated that future plans include trying to have a proper use for cameras, perhaps an easier way to take screenshots and share them with others.<ref>{{ytl|YMhyX_lKWV4}}</ref> In the BlockTalk Q&A, the camera was briefly mentioned as part of a broader "sharing" theme planned for {{el|be}} in the future.<ref>{{ytl|Ruf6tvqsD84}}</ref>
It later got implemented into {{el|ee}}, using the camera to make screenshots and share them in a special book.
== Issues ==
{{Issue list}}
== Trivia ==
* A camera prevents a [[Book and Quill]] from working. Attempting to craft it or obtain it by commands gives a regular book instead, due to non-implementation of photo attaching to written books.
* The camera can take a screenshot, which appears a bit smaller with a thick paper outline having cuts on its edges, making it look like an old photograph.
* This feature is hidden from the Creative inventory and from the /give command item menu.
