Commands

General commands

Commands every member can use to get information, manage their profile, report a problem, translate a message and more.

Updated on October 15, 2026#commandes

Search the documentation

Type a keyword: a command, a module, a dashboard page…

Every member can use these commands, no special permission needed (the only exception is renaming someone else with /rename). They help you find your way around the bot, look up a member, a role or the server, show your Dispatch.IO profile, report a message or a bug, and handle a few handy tasks (translation, image hosting, questions to Gemini).

Some replies are public (the whole channel sees them), others are private: Discord then shows "Only you can see this" under the message. Most of these commands also work in direct messages.

Tip

Not sure how to run a slash command, or why a command doesn't show up? Start with All commands, which explains how commands work, rate limits and which language replies use.

Help and bot status

Find a command with /help and check that the bot responds with /ping.

Finding a command with /help

Type /help without any option to open the help home page. It shows the bot's total number of commands, how many you can use here, and useful links (website, bot invite, vote, support server).

  1. Open the drop-down menu under the home page.
  2. Pick a category (APP, Moderation, Utilities, Engagement, Information, Levels, Music, Aviation…). Only categories that contain at least one command you can run are offered.
  3. The category's commands are listed, each with its description. Click a command name to drop it into your message bar.

Help is personalised: it takes into account your Discord permissions, which modules are enabled (for example /rank only shows up when the leveling system is on) and where you are (in a DM, only commands that work outside servers are listed). The "Translate this" context-menu command is not listed.

For a command's detail card, use the command option. Suggestions appear as you type; the search uses the command's English name (type report, not signaler). For a subcommand, type both words: info user.

/help

Shows the commands you can use, grouped by category, or the detail card of one command.

Syntax

/help [command:<command>]

Checking latency with /ping

/ping shows how fast the bot is talking to Discord. A loading message appears first, then the latency in milliseconds with a coloured indicator: good up to 160 ms, medium up to 400 ms, high up to 1,500 ms, offline above that.

/ping

Information with /info

Six subcommands to learn everything about the bot, the server, a member, a role, a channel or an emoji.

/info groups six subcommands. They all reply publicly in the channel and share one limit: 1 use every 10 seconds across all of /info. A "Your request is being processed…" message is shown while the bot gathers the information.

SubcommandName in a French clientWhat it showsWhere
/info app/info appThe bot: version, statistics, badgesAnywhere
/info server/info serveurThe current server or another oneServer with Dispatch.IO
/info user/info utilisateurA Discord account and its badgesAnywhere
/info role/info rôleA server roleServer with Dispatch.IO
/info channel/info salonA server channelServer with Dispatch.IO
/info emoji/info émojiA custom emoji of the serverServer with Dispatch.IO

Note

server, role, channel and emoji need Dispatch.IO to be a member of the server. Used in a DM, they never get past the "being processed" message.

/info app

/info app

Introduces Dispatch.IO and shows its statistics (version, servers, users, commands, blacklisted users, latency, uptime) and the list of existing Dispatch.IO badges.

/info server

Without an option, the command describes the server you're in: owner, creation date, language, verification level, members (humans and bots), NSFW level, number of roles, boosts, channels by type and the server's emojis. The Join this server button is only active if the server has a permanent invite.

With server_id you can target another server. If Dispatch.IO is in it, you get the full card. Otherwise only a short card is possible, and only for public servers that Discord lets you preview (approximate member and online counts, emojis, invite splash). In any other case the bot replies "Unable to access information for this server".

/info server

Shows all the information about a server.

Result on Discord

/info server reply for the Café des Devs server
Full card of a server the bot is in.

/info user

Without an option, the command is about you. The card shows the username, the ID, whether the account is an app, whether the person is on the Dispatch.IO team, their Discord badges, the account creation date and the badges the Dispatch.IO team gave them. The card colour is the highlight colour the person picked on their dashboard, or the server's colour otherwise.

The buttons at the bottom open private replies:

ButtonWhat it shows
Avatar and Profile bannerOpen the image in your browser (banner greyed out if the person has none).
VerifyKnown reports: the DangerCord database, the Dispatch.IO blacklist and decisions published by the European Commission (DSA transparency database).

Profile and Premium

Show a Dispatch.IO profile and check your subscriptions.

Showing a profile with /profil

/profil shows a member's Dispatch.IO profile (yours by default): their name, avatar, description and links. If the person has Dispatch.IO badges, the first one is shown before their name. If they added a profile banner, it appears at the top.

You set up your profile on the website, in the Profile section of your dashboard:

  • Your description: a single text, shown on every server;
  • Your links: up to 5 public links (label + address);
  • Profile banner: a wide image.

All of these settings are free. The border of the reply uses the person's Highlight color, a Premium perk set in the dashboard's Preferences; without it, the server color.

Your birthday and country are never shown by /profil. A profile with no description and no link shows "This profile is still empty. Set it up from the Dispatch.IO dashboard."

/profil

Shows a member's Dispatch.IO profile.

Syntax

/profil [user:<member>]

Checking Premium with /premium

/premium privately shows the subscription of the server you're in and your personal subscriptions:

  • Server: the active plan (Dispatch.IO Basic or Dispatch.IO Ultimate, including an Ultimate slot provided by an Individual Ultimate subscription), its tier, its status (Active, Trial, Past due, Cancels at period end) and its end date;
  • Account: your Individual Basic or Individual Ultimate plans, including those shared with you (marked "Shared").

The My Premium button opens your subscription management on the website. The Server subscription button is added if you're an administrator of the server (Administrator permission or ADMIN role). In a DM, the server part simply tells you to run the command in a server.

/premium

Report a message, a member or a bug

Alert the server's moderators or the Dispatch.IO team.

/report has three subcommands. The reply is always private: the reported person is not notified.

SubcommandName in a French clientWho receives the report
/report message/signaler messageThe server's moderators and the Dispatch.IO team
/report user/signaler utilisateurThe server's moderators and the Dispatch.IO team
/report bug/signaler bugThe Dispatch.IO team only

On a server, message and member reports are posted in the Moderation & Sanction Logs channel, in the server's language. If that channel isn't set up, the server's moderators receive nothing. Like any sanction log, the message may mention the people set up for emergency alerts (the server owner by default): see Logs.

After your confirmation, a second private message invites you to join the Dispatch.IO support server if you want to talk about it.

Important

Admins: to receive your members' reports, pick a Moderation & Sanction Logs channel on the dashboard's Channels page or in /config.

/report message

To copy a message ID, turn on Discord's Developer Mode (Settings, Advanced), then right-click the message and choose "Copy Message ID". If the message is in another channel, give that channel with the channel option.

/report message

Reports a specific message to the moderators.

Syntax

/report message message_id:<ID> reason:<reason> [channel:<channel>] [image:<file>]

Options

OptionTypeRequiredDescription
message_idTextYesThe ID of the message to report.

Change a nickname

Change or remove your nickname, or another member's if you moderate the server.

/rename changes your nickname on the server, or removes it if you leave nickname empty. The bot makes the change for you, so you don't need Discord's "Change Nickname" permission.

To rename someone else, you need the "Manage Nicknames" permission or an ADMIN or MODO role set up on the server. A few rules apply:

  • nobody can rename the server owner;
  • you can't rename a member whose highest role is higher than or equal to yours;
  • Dispatch.IO's role must sit above the highest role of the person being renamed (including yourself).

When you rename another member, the change is recorded in the Member & Profile Logs channel if it is set up.

/rename

Changes or removes your nickname on the server, or another member's.

Syntax

/rename [user:<member>] [nickname:<nickname>]

Options

OptionTypeRequiredDescription
userUserNoThe person to rename (moderators only). Defaults to you.
nicknameTextNoThe new nickname. Leave empty to remove the nickname.

Translate a message

The Translate this context-menu command, available from any message.

"Translate this" isn't a slash command: you open it from a message's menu.

  1. Right-click the message (long-press on mobile).
  2. Choose Apps, then Translate this.
  3. A private panel shows the text to translate. Under Source language of the message, keep "Auto detect" or pick the original language.
  4. Under Target language, pick the language you want.
  5. Click Translate: the translation replaces the panel.

The Edit message button opens a form to fix or shorten the text before translating it. Available languages: French, English, Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Arabic and Hindi.

The bot collects the text of the message, its embeds and containers, then strips emojis and formatting. Mentions are replaced with markers such as [USER MENTION]. The text must be at most 1,500 characters. The panel closes after 5 minutes without any action.

Warning

For now, only the first sentence of the text is translated. If the message has several sentences, use Edit message to translate one sentence at a time.

/Translate this

Translates a message's text into one of the 11 available languages.

Upload an image

Get a direct link to an image with /upload-image.

/upload-image uploads an image to the ImgBB host and gives you its direct link, handy for a banner or an embed. Accepted formats: JPG, JPEG, PNG, WEBP and GIF, 10 MB max.

  1. Run /upload-image and attach your image to the image option.
  2. A private preview shows the file's name, size and type.
  3. Click Confirm to upload it, or Cancel to close the preview.
  4. The bot shows the image link and a preview.

The buttons stay active for 2 minutes. The command only works on a server where Dispatch.IO is present.

Gemini, GIFs and manners

Ask the AI a question, share a GIF or remind people of their manners.

Asking a question with /gemini

/gemini sends your question to Gemini, Google's AI, and posts the answer in the channel. Each question stands alone: Gemini doesn't remember previous questions. A long answer is split into several messages numbered at the bottom ([1/2], [2/2]…). On a server, the last message has an Invite application button.
