   Gain permission to add the bot. You can do this by making or having someone else make a role with Manage Server permissions and giving you the role. You need "Manage Server" permissions to add a bot to a server.

   • You can skip this step if you own the server as you automatically have all permissions.
2. 2

   Visit a Discord bot website such as Discord Bots. You can scroll through the pages of bots, search for bots, or use a command to invite a bot to your server in a different server, if that server has the bot.

   • If a different server has a bot you want to add to your server, use the bot's prefix then 'help'. If the prefix is '!', say '!help'. There should be a join command or something similar to invite it to your server.
