About

GiveItemNum is the numeric-ID equivalent of GiveItem. Use it when you know an item's ID number but not its GFI code, or when you prefer working with IDs in your admin workflow.

Pass the item ID, the quantity you want, a quality value (which affects durability and stats on gear), and a final flag: 0 to receive the item itself, or 1 to receive only its blueprint. The command adds everything to your inventory immediately.

If you have the item's GFI code instead of its numeric ID, use GiveItem, it is often simpler and more readable in logs.
