Discord

Discord is a communication platform that supports text, voice, and video interactions within servers and communities. Discord bots extend the platform’s capabilities by automating actions, responding to messages, and integrating with external systems.

With a Discord bot, you can:

• Send messages: Post automated updates or notifications into channels.
• Read messages: Retrieve recent chat messages for analysis or display.
• Access server info: Retrieve metadata such as server name, member count, and roles.
• Access user info: Fetch specific user information by their unique Discord ID.

In Gen6, the Discord integration allows your agents to interact with servers programmatically, automate notifications, and connect workflows with Discord communities.
