Discord

First, install the integration to your bot:

1. In Botpress Studio, select Explore Hub in the upper-right corner.
2. Search for the Discord integration.
3. Select Install Integration.

In the Configuration menu, you should see one field:

• Bot Token

Leave it empty for now—you’ll come back to it after completing the setup in Discord.

Next, create a Discord application:

1. Go to the Discord Developer Portal and sign in.
2. Select New Application in the top-right corner.
3. Give your application a name and select Create.

Now, create a bot user for your application:

1. In your application’s left sidebar, select Bot.
2. Under the bot’s username, you can optionally set a custom avatar and display name.
3. Under Privileged Gateway Intents, enable the following:
   • Server Members Intent
   • Message Content Intent
4. Select Save Changes.

Next, copy your bot’s token:

1. Still on the Bot page, below Token, select Reset Token (or Copy if a token is already visible).
2. Confirm the reset if prompted.
3. Copy the token and store it somewhere safe—you will not be able to see it again.

Now, invite the bot to your Discord server:

1. In the left sidebar, select OAuth2 > OAuth2 URL Generator.
2. Under Scopes, select:
   • bot
   • applications.commands
3. Under Bot Permissions, select the permissions your bot requires. At minimum:
   • View Channels
   • Send Messages
   • Create Public Threads
   • Create Private Threads
   • Send Messages in Threads
   • Pin Messages
   • Attach Files
   • Read Message History
   • Add Reactions
   • Create Polls
4. Copy the generated URL at the bottom of the page and open it in your browser.
5. Select the server you want to add the bot to and select Authorize.

In your Botpress integration configuration, click “Connect with OAuth”, then follow the instructions in the wizard to fill out the following fields:

1. In the integration’s Bot Token field, paste your Discord bot token.
2. Select Save Configuration.
