5 Simple Steps to Create Your AI Bot

  1. Create a Discord Server
  2. Create a Discord Application
  3. Add the Bot to Your Server
  4. Create a Quickchat AI Account
  5. Integrate Your Discord Bot with Quickchat AI

What Your AI Bot Will Look Like

Once set up, your bot will be live on Discord, ready to have natural conversations with your server members.

End goal - smart conversational AI


1️⃣ Create a Discord Server

If you don’t have a Discord account, create one at discord.com. Then, set up your first server:

Create your first server


2️⃣ Create a Discord Application

Go to the Discord Developer Portal and create a new application.

Create a new application


3️⃣ Add Your Bot to the Discord Server

Remember to enable your bot to receive message content by clicking on the toggle below:

Enable message content

Once your bot is created, you need to add it to your server. The way to do it is to construct a Discord URL and paste it into your browser:

https://discord.com/api/oauth2/authorize?client_id=<YOUR CLIENT ID>&permissions=309237712896&scope=bot

Where does the permissions number come from?

The permissions number (309237712896) comes from requesting the following permissions:

  • Send Messages
  • Create Public Threads
  • Send Messages in Threads
  • Read Message History

Those are the minimal set of permissions required for your bot to operate correctly. You can see it for yourself by going to discord.com/developers/applications, selecting your application, clicking on Bot on the left and scrolling down:

Your discord bot permissions

Where to find YOUR CLIENT ID?

The easiest way will be to look at the address bar in your browser and copy the long number which is part of the address:

https://discord.com/developers/applications/<YOUR CLIENT ID>/bot

Your client ID

In this case the client id is 1234567890123456789 which means that the full URL you need to go to to add the server will be:

https://discord.com/api/oauth2/authorize?client_id=1234567890123456789&permissions=309237712896&scope=bot
