🚔Permission settings for Discord
You can set write access to TogetherCrew at 3 levels, from broad (server) to fine-grained (channel)
Server: Permissions for every category and every channel
Category: Permissions for channels grouped into one category
Channel: Permissions for specific channels
If you have different permission settings for category and server, the server settings are overridden by the category settings. Similarly, channel level settings override category level settings.
How to set permissions
Decide what access level you should grant. We recommend setting write access only for specific channels.
Switch to Discord
Navigate to the channel and select the wheel on the right of the channel name to access its settings.
Select Permissions (left sidebar), and then in the middle of the screen check Advanced permissions. You might have to scroll down a bit.
Check that the bot TogetherCrew is in the list of Roles/Members that have access to the channel. If not, select the ⊕ and add it. Make sure the TogetherCrew member (aka the bot) is added and not the role TogetherCrew.
Now, select TogetherCrew and scroll down the list of Advanced Permissions. Make sure that the following are marked as [✓]
Read access settings: Read channel and Read Message History
For Write access settings, the following is required
Send Message, Send Messages in Threads, Create Public Threads, Create Private Threads
If your announcement will include links, files and mentions, add these permissions: Embed Links, Attach Files, Mention @everyone, @here, and All Roles
Save your settings and go back to TogetherCrew
Back in TogetherCrew, go to Community Settings
On the top right of your Discord server panel, select the menu (three dots)
Click on "Show channels"
Click on the Refresh List
Save and go back to the Announcement page
If you see that the bot does not have access to a channel, check that member TogetherCrew has been given the right access. Setting channel permissions using the TogetherCrew role will not work.
