Is the USB-C cable bundled with a 2020 MacBook Pro usable to display on monitor

I planning on buying a monitor which only has thunderbolt port and no HDMI port

so I was wondering if the charger cable that’s bundled with my MacBook that I got back in 2020 can be used for it

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.0

NO, NO, NO!


The cable that ships in the box with a MacBook Pro is a CHARGE-ONLY cable, and its only data pathways are suitable for running a keyboard of mouse, nothing faster.
