Structure Block

A structure block is used to generate structures manually. They can also be used to save and load structures, alongside structure void blocks.

Structure blocks are available using the /setblock, /fill, or /give commands, or the Creative inventory in Java Edition through the "Operator Utilities" tab. When placed, structure blocks are unbreakable in Survival and have the same blast resistance as bedrock. In Bedrock Edition, only save-mode structure blocks are obtainable through commands in the inventory.

When placed, use the structure block to open its GUI. The GUI opens only if the player is in Creative mode, and has permission level 2 or higher.
