# Add a Command to CopyQ

To add a command to CopyQ:

- copy the command code (starts with `[Command]` or `[Commands]` for multiple commands),

- open CopyQ,

- open Command dialog (F6 shortcut),

- click "Paste Commands" button (or Ctrl+V),

- apply changes.

To **simplify this** add [command](Automatic/import-commands-after-copied.ini)

which shows notification with button to import all commands copied to clipboard.

This also works if you just copy a link with commands.
