# Basic Monitor Commands

## Adding an item to the restock monitor

To add an item to the restock monitor you need to use the `add` command. This command requires the name of the store and the SKU of item you would like to monitor. Example:

```
!m add target 81114595
```

{% hint style="info" %}
When adding items for stores which require the item URL, it is recommended that you remove any unnecessary arguments from the URL. 
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
If your item is not added successfully to the monitor on the first attempt and the returned error doesn't provide an explicit reason then please try adding the item a couple of times.
{% endhint %}

### Adding multiple items at once to the restock monitor

To add multiple items at once to the restock monitor you need to use the `add` command. This command requires the name of the store and multiple SKUs for the items you would like to monitor. Example:

```
!m add target 81114595 86660922
```

## Adding an item to the restock monitor and forwarding it to multiple channels at the same time

To add an item to the restock monitor and forward it to a channel/channels in the same command you need to use the `add` command. This command requires the name of the store, the SKU of the item you would like to monitor and the channel/channels you wish to forward the item to. Examples:

```
!m add target 81114595 #important
```

You can also forward an item to multiple channels. Example:

```
!m add target 81114595 #channel1 #channel2 #channel3
```

## Removing an item from the restock monitor

To remove an item from the restock monitor you need to use the `remove` command. This command requires the name of the store and the SKU of item you would like to remove from the monitor. Example:

```
!m remove target 81114595
```

### Removing multiple items at once from the restock monitor

To remove multiple items at once from the restock monitor you need to use the `remove` command. This command requires the name of the store and multiple SKUs for the items you would like to remove. Example:

```
!m remove target 81114595 86660922
```

## View monitored items

You can view a list of all the items you have added to the restock monitor for each store using the `running` command. This command only requires the name of the store. Example:

```
!m running target
```

## View a list of all available stores

The `monitors` command will display all of the currently available stores and if you have access to them or not. Example:

```
!m monitors
```

{% hint style="info" %}
If you have a store that you would like to see added then simply open a ticket in the [Discord server](https://discord.com/invite/pR2RzwRbwS) and request it.
{% endhint %}

## View a list of all command store names

The names of some stores may be altered slightly in the commands. For example to add an item to the restock monitor for *B\&H Photo and Video* the store name becomes `bh`; a full command being `!m add bh 1590536`. Use this command to view all of the command store names. Example:

```
!m storenames
```
