Upload A World to your Minecraft Bedrock Server
This guide will help get you started with uploading a Bedrock world to your Bedrock server.
Preparing the World
Before the world can be uploaded to a server, it will need to be exported from the game. Exporting the world creates a copy of your existing world as a file.
-
Launch the Minecraft Bedrock
-
Click on play and next to the world you want to upload click on the pencil or edit button.
-
Scroll to bottom of the Game Settings and select the Export World button. This will create a
.mcworldfile.
-
Extract the
.mcworldfile using an archiving program such as WinRAR, 7-Zip, or the built-in application for your operating system. This will create a folder containing level.dat and the rest of your world files.
Uploading the World
Once the world has been exported and extracted, it can now be uploaded to the server.
- Stop your server.
- Login via SFTP.
- Take your single player world folder and upload it into worlds folder on the server.
- Back in Command Center, navigate to your files tab and click on the server.properties file. Change the
level-nameto the name of the folder you just uploaded. - Once your server.properties is saved, start your server and connect to check and make sure your world loaded correctly.
