title: Set Display Objective
description: "Play 0x62, server → client."
---

`play` · `0x62` · **clientbound** (server → client)

Shows an objective in a scoreboard display slot (sidebar, below name, list, or team-colored sidebar). The server sends it when `/scoreboard objectives setdisplay` is used. An empty `name` clears the slot.

Sent by the server, read by the client. Listen for it with `client.on("SetDisplayObjective", (data) => …)` on the receiving side.
