Frequently Asked Questions
How does Durable handle Discord rate limits?
Durable automatically manages Discord's rate limits with per-route bucket tracking and intelligent queuing. We implement exponential backoff and respect rate limit headers to ensure reliable message delivery without hitting limits.
Can I create slash commands with this integration?
While Durable handles Discord Bot API operations like messaging and server management, slash command registration requires initial setup through Discord Developer Portal. Once registered, Durable can respond to slash command interactions.
What happens if my bot lacks permissions?
Durable checks bot permissions before operations and provides clear error messages when permissions are insufficient. You'll need to grant the appropriate server and channel permissions through Discord's role system.
Can I send rich formatted messages?
Yes. Durable supports Discord embeds with titles, descriptions, fields, colors, images, and footers. We also support markdown formatting in regular messages and provide helpers for creating complex message layouts.
How do I manage multiple Discord servers?
A single Discord bot can be added to multiple servers. Durable can interact with all servers where your bot is installed, allowing you to manage communities, send messages, and create channels across your Discord ecosystem.
What are the limitations on message size?
Discord limits messages to 2000 characters and embeds to 6000 total characters. Durable validates message sizes and provides automatic chunking for longer content, splitting it into multiple messages when necessary.
