# Discord integration guide

Looking to create a Discord bot that auto-posts important on-chain activity to your team or community servers? Whether you're wanting to automatically update a channel or get alerts for your eyes only, you're in the right place.

There are several ways you can start getting alerts in Discord:

1. Integrate your Discord account or server during Patch creation
2. Connect your Discord account or server in your account settings, then create a Patch

### Troubleshooting

Having trouble getting Dispatch to post messages in your Discord server or channel?

Discord can get a little confusing with permissions at both the server and channel level, we get it.

### Quick things to check:

1. Are you an admin of the server?
2. Do you have other security or verification tools that might be blocking bot messages?
3. Does the channel allow message posting?

### Setting Discord permissions

1. In your Discord **channel**, navigate to **Settings**
2. In Settings, choose **Permissions**
3. Scroll down to **Advanced Permissions**
4. Make sure that for whichever Roles/Members group you're assigning Dispatch bot to, the green checkmark is checked next to **Send Messages**
5. Make sure to click **Save Changes**!
