What are NBT tags (formerly called Data Tags)?

NBT tags allow you to set certain properties of an entity (such as pig). The NBT tag is always surrounded in {} such as {CustomName:”\”Sloppy\””}. If there is more than one NBT tag used in a game command, the NBT tags are separated by a comma such as {CustomName:”\”Sloppy\””, Age:-25000}.

Target Selectors

Before we finish discussing data tags, let’s quickly explore how to use the @e target selector. The @e target selector allows you to target entities in your commands. If you use the type=pig value, you can target pigs:

@e[type=pig]

Target Selector Examples

To change the nearest pig to a baby pig:

/data merge entity @e[type=pig,limit=1,sort=nearest] {Age:-25000}

To kill all pigs:

/kill @e[type=pig]
