# Sales Cloud for Slack Shortcut and Slash Command

These shortcuts and slash commands are available in the Sales Cloud for Slack app.

Start typing a command directly into the Slack message field. For shortcuts, you can also click the Slack shortcut menu. Copying shortcut text into the message field doesn’t activate the associated action.

If you use other Slack apps connected to Salesforce, other commands are available.

If you start typing a slash command and the type-ahead menu appears with no results, restart Slack desktop, or close your browser and reopen it.
