How to Manually Format Server JSON Lists

Structural Rules for JSON Files

When managing lists outside the game, you may need to edit whitelist.json, ops.json, or banned-players.json directly. Even though Easy Whitelist allows in-game commands to process usernames without requiring real UUID lookups, the server's underlying JSON files still require both fields for every entry.

Each list entry must contain:

1. A name key with the player's exact case-sensitive username.

2. A uuid key with a correctly formatted UUID string.

Adding Valid Entries

The UUID does not need to be the player's genuine Mojang UUID—it can be random—but it must follow the standard 8-4-4-4-12 hexadecimal character structure.

Example entry format:

`json

{

"uuid": "01234567-89ab-def0-1234-56789abcdef0",

"name": "NikitaCartes"

}

`

When writing entries manually:

• Always ensure hyphens divide the hexadecimal digits into groups of 8, 4, 4, 4, and 12 characters.
• Check that the name value exactly matches the target account's casing.
• Enclose all objects within the main JSON array ([...]) and separate multiple entries with commas.
