}

Required fields:

• x, y, z - Coordinates
• pitch, yaw - Player rotation

Optional fields:

• world - Target world name (if omitted, uses player's current world)
• Any additional fields - Ignored by the plugin, useful for web dashboards

Use Cases

• Dynamic Spawn Points - Update spawn locations without editing configs

• Multi-Server Networks - Share teleport locations across multiple servers
• Web Integration - Build web dashboards to manage teleports with images and descriptions
• Player Hubs - Create central hubs with teleports to different game modes

• Servers with frequent location changes
• Networks using centralized configuration management
• Admins who want web-based teleport management
• Integration with custom dashboards and tools

Requirements

• Paper 1.21.1 or newer
• Java 21+
