How to Setup DiscordSRV on Your Minecraft Server

Knowledgebase

What is DiscordSRV?

DiscordSRV is a powerful plugin that can sync your in-game Minecraft chat with a channel on your Discord server, in addition to a wealth of other features such as:

Linking Discord and Minecraft accounts and syncing nicknames/roles.
Voice proximity chat.
Managing your Minecraft console remotely through Discord.

This guide will only cover the very basics – how to link your chats together – however once completing this guide, you can configure the additional features using their official installation guide.

Installation

These instructions are adapted from the official DiscordSRV installation guide. If you’d like to customise your setup or require further guidance, please see their GitHub Wiki Page.

Note: You must have the Manage Server permission on your Discord Server to add the bot

Installing the Plugin

Download the plugin from the DiscordSRV Spigot Page.
Install the plugin using our guide here.
Restart your server to generate the needed configuration files.

Creating the Discord Bot

Create a new Discord Application by going to the Discord Developer Portal and clicking New Application. Pick a name and assign it to your personal team.
Add a Bot to your new Application by navigating to the Bot page and clicking Add Bot.
Enable the Server Members Intent and click Save Changes. If you’d like, you can also change the bot icon and username on this page.
Copy the Token by clicking the Copy button.
Copy your Application ID by going back to the General Information page and clicking Copy.
Go to https://discord.com/api/oauth2/authorize?permissions=8&scope=bot&client_id= and copy your numeric Application ID to the end of the link.
Select your server from the list and click Continue then Authorise.

Finding the Discord Channel ID

Enable Discord Developer mode by going to User Settings > Advanced then toggling Developer Mode.
Right click the Discord text channel that you would like to link with your Minecraft server and click Copy ID.
You should then have a long number (such as 873672811208663090) in your clipboard.
