ClickUp Quick-Start Guide

Slash Commands

In our quest to completely remove unnecessary clicks, we created a game-changing feature— Slash Commands.

Combined with the Quick Switcher, you can do anything without lifting a finger in ClickUp!

How to use Slash Commands

• Use /Slash Commands for formatting text
• Embed external apps and sites like YouTube, Figma, or Cloud App
• Drop cloud storage files and attachments directly into text fields
