Discord server
To get started, set up a Discord server by first downloading and opening the Discord client (or by heading to the web client) and clicking on the green + icon on the left tab.
A menu will pop up asking if you’d like to choose a template - choose Create My Own. The next section will ask you about your new server - choose whichever option you’d like or you can skip this section. The last section will ask you to choose a server name and icon - feel free to add your own or stick with the defaults. Lastly, click the blue Create button and you will be directed to your newly created server.
Now that you have your Discord server ready, let’s set up your Discord bot.
Discord bot
Set up a Discord application for your bot through the Developer Portal. Once you’re signed in, it should redirect you to the applications page.
Click New Application on the top right. A box to create an application should pop up. Enter "discord-gpt3-bot" for your application name and then click Create. You will be redirected to your new application’s portal which should look like this:
In the panel on the left hand side, click Bot to be redirected to the Bot submenu. Click Add Bot and then click Yes, do it! to turn your newly created application into a bot. The Bot menu should populate with new settings and look like this:
Under the Build-A-Bot section, you should see the option to reveal your hidden token. Click Copy to copy your token and store it in a safe place - this token will be used in the next section.
This token should be kept private and should not be shared with anyone. This token gives full access to your bot account and is used to send code to it. If your token ever gets compromised, click Regenerate next to your token in the bot menu to reset your token.
Now scroll down and enable the Message Content Intent:
The next step is to send your bot to your server. On the left hand side, click OAuth2 and you should be redirected to the OAuth2 menu as seen below:
Copy your Client ID shown under the Client information section and place it in the URL below in place of YOUR_CLIENT_ID and place it in your browser.
This link with your client ID will take you to a dialog that will authorize your bot to a server of your choice. Choose the server you’d like your bot to join and then click Authorize.
You might be presented with a CAPTCHA to complete before your application is authorized. Head over to the Discord server and you should see that the "discord-gpt3-bot" joined.
Now that your chatbot is connected to your server.
