Enhance your Discord experience by integrating real-time updates directly into your server channels. This guide walks you through the process of setting up an RSS feed bot to keep your community engaged with the latest updates.

Begin by selecting the RSS feed or bundle of your choice. This feed will act as the source of updates in your Discord channels.

Navigate to the “Feed Overview” page. Here, locate and click on the Discord button, found on the right side.

If this is your first time setting up a Discord bot, a modal will appear for authorization. Add the bot to your server by selecting the desired server and clicking 'Continue'.

Ensure the bot has permissions to 'manage webhooks' and 'send messages'. After confirming these settings, click 'Authorize'.

Choose the specific text channel within your Discord server where the bot will post updates.

Back on the “Feed Overview” page, you have options to modify sources, bundles, and apply filters to tailor the feed to your needs.

Webhooks Customization

Add custom webhooks to change the bot’s name and avatar. For example, see images bellow:

Adjust settings for message previews, including color customization.

Check the history to see when and how many updates the bot has sent. Use the 'Send Test' button on the top right of the screen to verify the bot's integration.

After adding the bot, adjust its permissions in the specific channels where updates are desired. Without the necessary permissions, the bot might not be able to post.

Setting Permissions: Go to the text channel settings, select 'Permissions', then 'Advanced Permissions', and choose the RSS feed bot. Ensure it has the 'View Channel' and 'Create Invite' permissions enabled.

Once these steps are completed, your Discord server is all set to receive timely updates via your customized RSS feed bot!
