Portfolio

This feature is exclusive to Minecraft Education.

This article describes content that has been officially made unobtainable in Bedrock Edition.

It can still be obtained using third-party software. However, this can cause unexpected behavior such as bugs and crashes.

A portfolio is an item that can save photos taken with a camera.^[1]

Obtaining

Portfolios can be obtained in the Creative inventory or given through the /give command. In Bedrock Edition, they are unobtainable and can only be obtained using glitches, inventory editing, or add-ons.

Usage

Once a photo has been taken using the camera, it appears in the portfolio. Once equipped, pressing the Use Item control brings up a two-page book of photos the player has taken, in chronological order. Captions can be added below each picture. Each picture can be deleted or saved as a photo item in the player's inventory. The "Add Photo" button allows the player to add pictures from photo items in their inventory, while the "Export Portfolio" button creates a PDF file in a specified folder containing all photos stored in the portfolio.

As photos from a camera are not stored in Bedrock Edition, no photos can be added or exported using the portfolio. The item therefore has no use.
