Using Slash Commands

Slash commands give you a quick way to reuse text and prompts in Scope. Each command has a short name and saved content.

For example, /avs can insert a prompt that asks Scope to create an after-visit summary. You can review or change the inserted text before you use it.

Create a Slash Command

1. Open Settings in Scope.
2. Select Slash commands.
3. Select Add command.
4. Enter a short name in the Command field. Do not include the / character.
5. Enter the saved text or prompt in the Expands to field.
6. Select Create.

Create a slash command with a short command name and the text it should insert

A command name can contain letters, numbers, spaces, dashes, and underscores. Scope changes spaces to dashes.

Use a Slash Command in Ask Scope

1. Put the cursor at the start of an empty Ask Scope message.
2. Type / to open the command menu.
3. Continue to type the command name to filter the list.
4. Select the command that you want to use.
5. Review or change the inserted text.
6. Send the message.

Type a slash to browse your saved commands in Ask Scope

On a computer, you can use the arrow keys and Enter to select a command. On a mobile device, tap a command above the keyboard.

Use a Slash Command in the Note Editor

1. Put the cursor where you want to add the saved text.
2. Type / at the start of a line or after a space.
3. Continue to type the command name to filter the list.
4. Select the command that you want to use.

Scope replaces the command name with its saved content. You can edit the content after Scope inserts it.

Slash Commands and Voice Macros

Slash commands are text shortcuts. You must type or select a slash command before Scope inserts its saved content.

Slash commands are not voice macros. Scope does not listen for a spoken trigger phrase and replace it with a predefined paragraph.

Use a custom template when you want Scope to use a consistent note structure or phrase style.
