Discord

Post to a Discord channel from any automation — reminders before events, new bookings, finished tasks.

Experimental. Integrations are still being tested. They may not run, or may give incomplete or wrong results — check anything important yourself, and tell us what goes wrong.

Add Daykite to a Discord server you manage, and any automation can post to its channels with a Post to Discord step.

Add to a server

Integrations → Discord → Add to a server, pick the server, and Authorize. You need Manage Server permission there. Daykite joins as a bot with two permissions only:

Permission Why
View Channels To list channels for you to choose from
Send Messages To post

It can't read messages, see members or manage anything.

Post from an automation

  1. In an automation, add Post to Discord (under Integrations).
  2. Channel: choose from the server's text and announcement channels.
  3. Message: what to say, with placeholders.

Nothing Daykite posts can ping anyone. @everyone, @here, roles and people are shown as plain text — Discord itself switches mentions off for Daykite's messages — so a guest can't ping your whole server by typing it into a booking form.

When a post fails

  • Daykite's bot can't post in that channel: the channel's permissions leave the bot out. In Discord, let the Daykite role view the channel and send messages.
  • That channel doesn't exist any more: choose another channel.

Disconnect

Disconnect removes the connection. If nobody else in Daykite uses the bot in that server, it leaves the server too.
