# Slack slash commands

||
|
|
||
|
> Introduced in GitLab 8.15
|
||
|
|
||
|
Slack commands give users an extra interface to perform common operations
|
||
|
from the chat environment. This allows one to, for example, create an issue as
|
||
|
soon as the idea was discussed in chat.
|
||
|
For all available commands try the help subcommand, for example: `/gitlab help`
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Prerequisites

||
|
|
||
|
