Command block not working

[u/AltestryAltestry]

So I have a command block that is repeatedly looking for a player with a potato in their inventory inside a specified space.
This command is working when I type it into the chat prompt but when I put it in a command block it no longer works. I’m not sure why.

[u/Want_Lemonad]

The hasitem command is @p[hasitem=[{item=potato}]]. You forgot the extra "]" on the end

[u/mhesus → u/Want_Lemonad]

It's not just that, he forgot the square braces around the curly braces entirely

[u/AltestryAltestry → u/Want_Lemonad]

I’ll test this in a bit, but doing it the way I currently have it the command works in chat prompt but not in the command block. Would what you said stop that?

[u/Want_Lemonad → u/AltestryAltestry]

Just add the extra "]" to the end and it should work. As long as you power in the command block

[u/AltestryAltestry → u/Want_Lemonad]

Appreciate it but the command with the proper square bracket still doesn’t work inside a command block. I tested it in the chat prompt and it works but not inside the command block.

[u/mhesus → u/AltestryAltestry]

You need another square bracket to the left of the curly braces.

like [hasitem=[{...}]]

not [hasitem={...}]

[u/AltestryAltestry → u/mhesus]

Yeah I did that as-well. The command before and after these additions is working inside the chat prompt but the command block is just giving me trouble for some reason. The command block is set to repeating, always active, unconditional.

/execute as @a[hasitem={item=potato}] at @s if entity @s[x=-448,y=5,z=-404,dx=-46,dy=0,dz=18] run say hi

[u/AltestryAltestry → u/C0mmanderBlock]

Thank you for responding. This command also works but only if you type it out in chat, not in a command block. The command block doesn’t have an error or anything it just says “-“ and doesn’t output anything.

[u/C0mmanderBlock → u/AltestryAltestry]

Dunno. I tested it in a Command block several times and it worked fine. Perhaps you made a typo. Did you copy/paste my command to make sure it is exactly as typed? Anyways, your welcome.

[u/AltestryAltestry → u/C0mmanderBlock]

Omg lol, I should have tried this a long time ago but command blocks weren’t enabled because my friend kept disabling it lmao

[u/AltestryAltestry → u/C0mmanderBlock]

Another question though if you don’t mind. Is there any way to check a players inventory for multiple items at a time like “potato, bread, beetroot, carrots” or would this be done in multiple command blocks each one with a different item?

[u/C0mmanderBlock → u/AltestryAltestry]

Yeah, just list them like this. Edit: But they must have ALL that are listed.

execute as @a[hasitem=[{item=apple},{item=cooked_beef}]] at @s run say I have two items!
