Discord App/Bot Setup

  • Refer to the Discord Developers tab on their site.
  • Click on Getting Started and it may prompt you to log in. Do that.
  • You should see this upon logging in.

First App!

  • Click on Create App, you should not be prompted to create an App with a name. If you are apart of a team, you may choose to create it for your team or for yourself.

App Create Modal

  • Great! Not you should have your App created. It should bring you to a page like this.

Created App

  • From here, you will need you App's token, navigate to the Bot tab and click Reset Token to generate a new token to interact with you bot.
  • The following app will not exist, usage of this token will be pointless as this is a guide.

Token

  • That should be all of the environment variables needed from Discord, now we need this app on your server.
  • Navigate to Installation and Copy the provided Install Link to allow your App to your server.
  • You should set the Guild Install permissions as you like, for this purpose we will allow admin priviledges for now. Ensure the bot scope is added to do this.

Scope Invite Link

  • Notice that your App's Client Id is apart of the Install Link.
  • Paste this link in a web browser and you should see something like this.

Server Invite Initial

  • Click Add to Server and you should see this.

Server Invite Auth

  • Choose a server to add the App to, then click Continue then Authorize. You should see this after that.

Invite Success

  • Congratulations! You should now see you App on your server!

Its Alive!
