Minecraft /seed command
Java EditionSince Java 1.3.1 (12w21a)
Quick answer: Displays the world seed, ready to copy. Syntax:
seed/seed prints the numeric seed your world was generated from. Anyone with the seed and the same version can recreate the same terrain. Clicking the seed in chat copies it to your clipboard. Bedrock Edition has no /seed command - open the world settings to see the seed there.

Tips
- The seed alone does not reproduce structures exactly across different versions - terrain changes between major updates.
- Use our Seeds section for famous verified seeds like pack.png.
- Servers usually hide /seed from non-operators.
