Congratulations, 𝗗𝗿𝗮𝗳𝘁𝗕𝗼𝘁 is now added to your server!
Installation and settings
Here is the process for inviting and installing DraftBot.
Inviting DraftBot
Let's start by inviting DraftBot to the server by clicking here.
Installing DraftBot
Once DraftBot has been added to your server, you need to give it the permissions it requires. To do so, open your server settings and go to the Roles section.
The Administrator permission is strongly recommended for DraftBot.
Without it, you must make sure to grant it the permissions it needs in its other roles and in every channel where it has to act.
If you want DraftBot to be able to assign roles, make sure those roles sit lower in the server hierarchy. You can change the order by dragging roles up and down:
In our example, DraftBot will be able to assign the second, third, fourth and fifth roles, but will not be able to grant the first one.
DraftBot permission guidelines
| Essential | Strongly recommended |
|---|---|
| View Channels | Administrator |
| Manage Webhooks | Manage Channels |
| Send Messages | Manage Roles |
| Send Messages in Threads | Manage Expressions |
| Embed Links | View Audit Log |
| Attach Files | Manage Nicknames |
| Add Reactions | Kick Members |
| Use External Emoji | Timeout Members |
| Manage Messages | Mute Members |
| Read Message History | Deafen Members |
| Move Members |
With this installation done, and if you chose to trust DraftBot by leaving it as Administrator, you should not run into any problem. The initial setup is now complete.
Configuring commands
DraftBot uses Discord slash commands. This lets users run commands easily by typing /. You can configure them and restrict them to certain roles, channels and members.
To configure DraftBot's commands, go to your server settings on Discord, then to the Integrations section. You will find every bot on your server there, including DraftBot. Click DraftBot to display all of its commands and configure their permissions.
Command permissions can currently only be configured from Discord on desktop or Discord in a browser.
Pay close attention to how you configure your slash commands: wrong permissions given to the wrong people could compromise your server's security.
