How to set up MedalBot for Discord Clip Sharing

Note: You must be the Server Owner to configure MedalBot for sharing. Having an Administrator role will not grant the necessary permissions.

What is a Server Owner?

The Server Owner is the user who created the Discord Server or has had ownership transferred to them. They are typically identified by a Crown icon next to their Discord name.

Step 1: Connect Discord to Medal

To get started, connect your Discord account to Medal through Settings > Connections.

Step 2: Configure MedalBot

Once your Discord account is linked to Medal, go to the MedalBot tab in Settings. Medal will automatically find all the servers you own and categorize them as follows:

• Your Configured Servers: Servers with MedalBot invited and configured for Clip Sharing.
• Your Unconfigured Servers: Servers with MedalBot invited but not yet configured for Clip Sharing.
• Servers Without MedalBot: Servers without MedalBot invited.

Step 3: Configure a Server Example

For this example, we are going to configure the Zitro Gamers server.

First, click Connect to invite MedalBot to your server. Your browser will open a page to Discord asking which server you would like to invite MedalBot to and which permissions you would like to grant MedalBot.

These are the minimum permissions MedalBot requires in order to post clips in Discord.

Step 4: Final Configuration

Once MedalBot is connected, the Connect button will change to Edit. Click the Edit button to see several configuration options.

Once you've set the options and channels to your preferences, click the Save button, and MedalBot will be ready to start sharing!

For the Automatically Share New Clips option, this is limited to the Server Owner's clips only.
