Discord Developers Guide

How to set up your own bot to run the project

  1. Log in to Discord Developer Portal

  2. Create your new project with the New Application button.

  3. Activate the PRESENCE INTENT, SERVER MEMBERS INTENT, MESSAGE CONTENT INTENT in the Bot > Privileged Gateway Intents section.

  4. After creating your project, make the necessary settings in the Settings > OAuth2 tab.

    • Select the bot option from the OAuth2 URL Generator section
    • Below, select the permissions you wish for the bot to have in the server. We recommend Administrator for testing purposes

  5. After clicking on the bot, you can choose the permissions your bot will have from the window that opens.

    Recommended settings:

    Bot > General Permissions
   - Manage Expressions
   - Create Expressions
   - View Channels
   - View Server Insights

Bot > Text Permissions
   - Send Messages
   - Manage Messages
   - Embed Links
   - Attach Files
   - Use External Emojis
   - Use External Stickers
   - Add Reactions
   - Use Slash Commands
   - Use Embeded activites
   - Create Polls
    • Depending on the options you set, you can add your bot to your server by opening the GENERATED URL in your browser, authenticating with discord, and adding it to a server of your choosing.
    • Make sure you give your bot enough room to play.
