Introduction


This guide covers start to finish how to upload Datapacks to your world, and how to update them should they be out of date.


Reading time: 5min



Prerequisites / Disclaimers



Your server should not be running while uploading files. Stop your server before you make changes and only start it once you have finished uploading and updating Datapacks (Or any files)


  • Ensure that the datapack you are uploading is compatible with the version of your server.

  • Ensure you have downloaded the datapack to your local computer.



Step 1


Stop your server.





Step 2


Navigate to the File Manager page Under the “Management” Tab as seen below.






Step 3


Locate and open your world folder. (This is named “world” by default unless you have changed it).

Then, open the folder called “datapacks” that can be located inside your “world” folder. As seen below.







Step 4


You will need the datapack you wish to upload on your local PC; if you’ve just downloaded this, it will be in your downloads folder if you haven’t moved it after downloading.


Click the “Upload” button whilst in the “datapacks” and upload the datapacks you wish (These must be done one at a time) as seen below



If your upload gets stuck refresh the game panel page or log out and log back in.

Step 5


You’ve successfully uploaded datapacks! When starting the server next, you will see a console output that confirms the datapacks have loaded, similar to the one below.





The datapack isn’t working when I join the server


If you join the server and the datapack isn’t working, ensure that you have uploaded the datapack zip. Some datapacks when you download them contain multiple datapacks in one zip file. See an example below.



Note: The "UNZIP ME" is not the datapack, the zips inside is the files that get uploaded to the world
