The /flow command: custom commands for your server

With /flow, members start your flows as a slash command – with a name, optional text input and a member.

Requires Premium · Half MoonCommandsAutomation

Requires Premium

This feature is available from the Half Moon plan.

In yurna you build custom commands as a flow with the /flow command trigger. Members start it through the single /flow command and pick the name there – for example /flow name:rules. The command only works on the server the flow belongs to.

In the dashboard#

The old Custom commands page now leads straight to Flows – every custom command is a flow.

  1. Create a flow under Dashboard → Content & automations → Flows (or use a template such as “/rules with embed”).
  2. Drag the /flow command trigger onto the canvas and click it.
  3. Enter the /flow command name: lowercase letters, digits and hyphens only, up to 32 characters, unique per server.
  4. Write a short Description (up to 100 characters). It appears in Discord in the /flow picker.
  5. Optionally set a Cooldown (seconds) – how long each member has to wait before starting the flow again (0 = none, at most one day).
  6. Connect actions such as Reply, save and enable the flow.

Using inputs#

/flow has two fixed, optional fields:

  • input – free text (up to 1000 characters), available in the flow as {option.eingabe}
  • member – a member, available as {option.mitglied} (mention), {option.mitglied.id} and {option.mitglied.name}

On top of that there's {count} (how often the command has been used) and all general placeholders such as {user}. In “Send DM” and “Add/remove role” you can choose Member from a command option as the target – the action then affects the given member instead of the person using the command.

By command#

CommandWhat it doesKey optionsWho can use it
/flow <name> [input] [member]starts an enabled flow with the “/flow command” triggername: which flow command, input: free text, member: a memberall members (can be restricted in the flow)
/server flow listshows every flow with its state–Manage Server
/server flow enable <flow>turns a flow onflow: which flowManage Server
/server flow disable <flow>turns a flow offflow: which flowManage Server

The /flow name list only suggests enabled flows that fit your plan. New /flow commands are created in the dashboard only.

Tip

Want only certain roles to use the command? Add a Condition → Member has role right after the trigger and connect only the Yes output to your actions.

/flow commands–1050
Active flows in total–550

Because every /flow command is its own flow, on Half Moon the number of active flows also limits how many /flow commands you can use.

Common questions#

What does “is paused right now” mean?#

The flow is disabled or above your plan's limit. Turn it on in the dashboard or with /server flow enable.

What does “There is no flow command … on this server” mean?#

The name is misspelled or belongs to another server. It's best to pick the command from the list.

What does “Please wait … s” mean?#

The cooldown is still running. You set it on the /flow command trigger.

Why does an old custom command only reply with a notice?#

Former custom slash commands now run through /flow. The notice tells you the new call, e.g. /flow name:rules.
