Connect Discord

Connecting Discord lets your community use slash commands, take slot requests and get hunt announcements in your server.

1. Open Requests & Bot

2. Connect and invite the bot

Click Connect Discord and approve the connection. Pick the server you want the bot in — you'll need permission to add bots to that server.

3. Use slash commands

The bot adds slash commands to your server, such as /sr for slot requests and the economy commands (/work, /crime, /rob, balance and banking). If the commands don't appear straight away, reopen the Chat bot page and refresh the connection — Discord can take a minute to register new commands.

4. Set up hunt announcements

Choose your announcements channel in the Discord settings. When you start a new hunt, stream8.io posts it there automatically. Make sure the bot is allowed to Send Messages in that channel — if it isn't, the announcement fails and you'll see the reason on the hunt page.

5. Test it

Type /sr followed by a slot name in your server. The bot confirms the request and it appears in your stream8.io queue, just like Kick requests.

If something isn't working

Blank replies usually mean the request command is switched off in your stream8.io settings — the bot uses your configured command.
Announcements not posting? Check the bot's permissions in that channel, then try again.
Commands missing entirely? Reopen the Chat bot page and refresh the Discord connection.

Next: connect Kick or configure your OBS overlays.
