Minecraft Bedrock Edition: Complete Item & Block Identifier Reference

When working with Minecraft Bedrock Edition behavior packs, loot tables, recipes, and villager trades, you need to use the exact identifier strings that Mojang uses. This comprehensive reference guide provides you with every item and block identifier you'll need for the Trails & Tales update line (version 1.20.x).

About This Reference

This guide covers every single block, item, slab, stair, wall, fence, gate, door, trapdoor, pressure plate, button, sign, hanging sign, boat, chest boat, tool, weapon, armor piece, food item, material, technical block, education edition item, and all patterned variants available in Minecraft Bedrock Edition 1.20.x.

Important: All identifiers use the exact minecraft:<identifier> format required for behavior packs. These are the precise strings you'll use in JSON files for loot tables, recipes, and trade tables.

This pattern applies to every single entity type in the game, including:

• Hostile mobs (zombies, skeletons, creepers, etc.)
• Passive animals (cows, pigs, sheep, chickens, etc.)
• Neutral mobs (wolves, polar bears, endermen, etc.)
• Boss entities (wither, ender dragon)
• Ambient creatures (bats)
• And all other entity types available in Bedrock Edition

minecraft:element_0
minecraft:element_1
minecraft:element_2
minecraft:compound

minecraft:ice_bomb
minecraft:bleach
minecraft:hard_glass
minecraft:hard_glass_pane

Note: The element identifiers continue sequentially (element_3, element_4, etc.) up to the full periodic table of elements available in Education Edition.

Using These Identifiers

These identifiers are essential when creating:

• Behavior Packs: Define custom behaviors, loot tables, and recipes
• Loot Tables: Specify what items drop from blocks, chests, or entities
• Recipes: Create custom crafting recipes using specific item identifiers
• Trade Tables: Define villager trades with exact item requirements
• Commands: Reference items and blocks in give commands and selectors

Important Reminders

• ✔ All identifiers use the Bedrock Edition format (not Java Edition)
• ✔ Valid for use in behavior packs and add-on development
• ✔ Includes every structural variant (slabs, stairs, walls, fences, gates, doors, trapdoors, etc.)
• ✔ Pattern-based sections follow Mojang's official identifier naming conventions
• ✔ These identifiers are case-sensitive and must match exactly as shown

Version Compatibility

This reference is specifically compiled for Minecraft Bedrock Edition version 1.20.x (the Trails & Tales update line). While most identifiers remain consistent across versions, Mojang occasionally:

• Adds new items and blocks in updates
• Renames or deprecates certain identifiers (rare)
• Introduces new variants of existing blocks

If you're working with a different version, verify the identifiers you need are available in that specific version. You can check Mojang's official behavior pack documentation for version-specific changes.

Additional Resources

While this reference provides a comprehensive list of identifiers, you may also find these resources helpful:

• Official Minecraft Wiki: Detailed information about each block and item
• Mojang's Bedrock Documentation: Official behavior pack and add-on documentation
• Community Add-on Guides: Tutorials on creating behavior packs and loot tables

Conclusion

Having access to the complete list of Minecraft Bedrock Edition identifiers is essential for anyone creating behavior packs, custom loot tables, recipes, or villager trades. This reference guide provides you with every identifier you'll need for version 1.20.x, organized by category for easy reference.

Whether you're a server administrator configuring custom loot drops, a behavior pack creator designing new game mechanics, or a modder developing custom content, having these identifiers at your fingertips will streamline your development process.

Remember to always use the exact minecraft:<identifier> format shown here, as even small differences in spelling or formatting can cause your behavior packs or commands to fail.
