Slash Commands

TrueAudit is fully powered by Discord slash commands, offering a clean, guided way to interact with the bot — no need to memorize syntax or worry about typos.

This page explains how to use these commands effectively and troubleshoot common issues.

🚀 What Are Slash Commands?

Slash commands start with / and show up in Discord's autocomplete menu. TrueAudit registers its commands automatically once added to your server.

Just type / in any text channel and start typing the command name (e.g. /checkstaff).

📋 Permissions & Access

• You must have Administrator or the required permissions for certain commands (e.g., managing detection rules).

• Some commands may be ephemeral — meaning the results are only visible to you.

🧪 Example Commands

Here are a few popular TrueAudit commands and what they do:

Command	Description
/checkstaff	View all recent moderation actions by staff
/checkuser	See a summary of audit actions targeting a user

/timezone	Set the timezone for timestamps
/export	Export logs from the last X days
/detectionrules	View all active detection rules

⚠️ Troubleshooting

🔹 Slash Commands Not Appearing?

• Make sure the bot is online and has application commands enabled.

• If you just added the bot, wait a few minutes — Discord may take a moment to register commands.

• Try kicking and reinviting the bot if commands still don’t appear.

🔹 "You don't have permission"?

• Only users with sufficient permissions can run commands like /setmodchannel or /setdetectionrule.

• Double-check that the bot’s role has the required permissions too.
