The whitelist command is not available in-game for BDS regardless of the enable-cheats property. As this has not yet been implemented, a request for it would be a feature request rather than a bug report. BDS is in Alpha which means its feature incomplete.

Hey, I'm having this same issue and I'm 100% sure that it used to work up until the last version or the one before that.
That's also confirmed by what's in the wiki: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Commands/whitelistΒ which shows the syntax differences from JAVA to BDS.
Can you please check again why the whitelist command is not showing up anymore and provide a workaround or a fix?
Thanks
