Commands

Register bot slash commands, update and delete them, answer invocations. Users invoke commands via / in chat. Commands also fire through the COMMAND field in keyboard buttons — both ways generate the same ONIMBOTV2COMMANDADD event.

Scope: imbot | Base URL: https://vibecode.bitrix24.com/v1 | Authorization: X-Api-Key

Known specifics

Idempotency: a repeat call with the same command for the same bot returns the existing command unchanged. To update it, use PATCH.

Multilingual: title and params accept either a string or an object with language keys (ru, en, de, etc.).

Event: when a user invokes the command, the ONIMBOTV2COMMANDADD event fires.
