A command is something a person does to make your bot react. There are two kinds: slash commands and context (right-click) commands.

​
Making a new command

Open Commands in the sidebar and press New command. You get three choices:
A slash command open in the Command Builder

A slash command in the Command Builder

​
The two kinds of commands

The person types / and the name, like /daily. Discord shows a list of your bot’s commands while they type.Slash commands can ask for extra things, called Inputs. See below.
Command names must be small letters with no spaces. Use a dash for two words, like daily-coins.

​
Inputs

Inputs are the extra boxes a person fills in when they use a slash command.

Example: /give

/give asks who (a User input) and how many (a Number input).The person types: /give @Sam 50
Inputs only work in slash commands. Events and right-click (context) commands do not have them.

The kinds of Inputs

​
How to add an Input

1

Open your slash command

Open your slash command in the builder.
2

Open the Inputs tab

In the block list, open the Inputs tab.
3

Drag it in

Drag the Input you want onto the board and join it under the first block.
4

Name it

Press it and give it a name (small letters, no spaces) and a description. People see the description in Discord.
5

Required or optional

Choose if the person must fill it in, or if it is optional.

​
Using what the person filled in

Every Input gives you a value you can use in later blocks. Press the { } Variables button next to any text box and pick it from the list. You can use it in messages, in Compare checks and in Do the maths. See Daily coins and A shop with items for full examples.

​
The Commands list

  • Search your commands, and filter by All, Slash or Right-click.
  • Each row has an on/off switch. A command that is off does not show in Discord.
