/reload

Reloads data packs in Java Edition, or reloads functions and scripts in behavior packs in Bedrock Edition.

If a data pack or behavior pack has invalid data (such as an invalid recipe format), changes are not applied and the game continues using the previous data.^{[needs testing in Bedrock Edition]}

reload

Reloads the current data packs in Java Edition, or functions and scripts in Bedrock Edition. For data packs, any definitions considered experimental by the game (i.e. marked with an asterisk here) are not reloaded; the player must leave and rejoin the world to reload these.
