Use this when you forget the command names.

## `/cobi status`

The response is private to you.

## `/cobi link`

Creates a one-time link that connects your Slack user to your Cobi user.

```text theme={null}

```

The response is private to you and includes a **Link account** button. The link is valid for 15 minutes.

## `/cobi ask <question>`

Starts a public thread in the current channel and answers your question there.

```text theme={null}
/cobi ask how is revenue trending this month?
```

Use this when you want the channel to see the answer.

## `/cobi chart <question>`

Starts a public thread and asks Cobi to produce a chart when the data supports it.

```text theme={null}
/cobi chart revenue by week
```

Cobi posts the answer and attaches a chart image when a chart is available.

## `/cobi table <question>`

Starts a public thread and asks Cobi to produce a table or CSV when the data supports it.

```text theme={null}
/cobi table top customers by revenue this quarter
```

Cobi posts the answer and attaches a table or CSV when there are rows to show.

<Note>
  `help`, `status`, and `link` are private responses. `ask`, `chart`, and `table` create public Slack threads in the channel where you run them.
