# GitLab Quick Actions
|
||
|
||
Quick actions are textual shortcuts for common actions on issues, epics, merge requests,
|
||
and commits that are usually done by clicking buttons or dropdowns in GitLab's UI.
|
||
You can enter these commands while creating a new issue or merge request, or
|
||
in comments of issues, epics, merge requests, and commits. Each command should be
|
||
on a separate line in order to be properly detected and executed.
|
||
|
||
> From [GitLab 12.1](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/26672), once an action is executed, an alert is displayed when a quick action is successfully applied.
|
||
|
||

||
## Autocomplete characters
|
||
|
||
Many quick actions require a parameter, for example: username, milestone, and
|
||
label. [Autocomplete characters](autocomplete_characters.md) can make it easier
|
||
to enter a parameter, compared to selecting items from a list.
|
||
|
||
## Quick actions parameters
|
||
|
||
The easiest way to set parameters for quick actions is to use autocomplete. If
|
||
you manually enter a parameter, it must be enclosed in double quotation marks
|
||
(`"`), unless it contains only:
|
||
|
||
1. ASCII letters.
|
||
1. Numerals.
|
||
1. Underscore, hyphen, question mark, dot, and ampersand.
|
||
|
||
Parameters are also case-sensitive. Autocomplete handles this, and the insertion
|
||
of quotation marks, automatically.
|
||
|
||
## Quick actions for commit messages
|
||
|
||
The following quick actions are applicable for commit messages:
|
||
|
||
| Command | Action |
|
||
|:------------------------|:------------------------------------------|
|
||
| `/tag v1.2.3 <message>` | Tags this commit with an optional message |
|
||
|
||
<!-- ## Troubleshooting
|
||
|
||
Include any troubleshooting steps that you can foresee. If you know beforehand what issues
|
||
one might have when setting this up, or when something is changed, or on upgrading, it's
|
||
important to describe those, too. Think of things that may go wrong and include them here.
|
||
This is important to minimize requests for support, and to avoid doc comments with
|
||
questions that you know someone might ask.
|
||
|
||
Each scenario can be a third-level heading, e.g. `### Getting error message X`.
|
||
If you have none to add when creating a doc, leave this section in place
|
||
but commented out to help encourage others to add to it in the future. -->
