Getting Started
Inviting the Bot
Add Assistance to your Discord server and give it the permissions it needs.
Before you can configure anything, Assistance needs to be a member of your server.
Add Assistance to a server
Open the invite link
Head to the invite page. You'll be asked to log in with Discord if you haven't already.
Choose a server
Pick the server you want to add Assistance to. You'll need the Manage Server permission in that server for it to show up in the list.
Approve the permissions
Discord shows the permissions Assistance is requesting. Keep them all enabled — removing one may stop a feature from working.
Once the bot joins, it appears in your dashboard. Select it there to start configuring tickets, commands, and your library.
Permissions Assistance needs

|---|---|
