Timeout a member

Stop a member from talking for a while.

member.timeout puts a member in a timeout. They can read but can't send messages, react or join voice until it ends.

Settings

SettingWhat it does
MemberWho to time out. See Members.
ForHow long: pick 60 seconds, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 1 hour, 1 day or 1 week, or type a length such as 30m, 1h 30m or 2d. A token works too, such as {option.length}. Up to 28 days. The default is 10 minutes.
Audit log reasonThe reason Discord records.

Ways out

out. Turn on If it fails for a red way out, which is also taken when the length can't be read.

Notes

  • The bot needs the Moderate Members permission.
  • A timeout ends by itself, so it's a gentler choice than a kick. End a timeout ends one early.
  • The canvas shows For 10 minutes, or the length you chose.
  • Older flows stored lengths such as 10 minutes; they still read the same.

Example

A /mute command with a text option length: time out {option.member} for {option.length}, so a moderator can type 45m.
