Change the bot's status

Set the bot's online status and activity, or rotate between several.

bot.status changes how the bot appears in the member list, such as "Watching 1,204 members".

Settings

SettingWhat it does
StatusOnline, Idle, Do not disturb or Invisible.
ActivityNone, Playing, Watching, Listening to, Competing in, or Custom status (the text alone, with nothing before it).
Activity textThe text after the activity, such as {server.memberCount} members. With several lines, each run shows the next line.

Ways out

out. Turn on If it fails for a red way out.

Notes

  • It needs a gateway bot, which the paid plan includes. See Plans.
  • With the activity set to None, or no text, the canvas shows only the status.
  • A status lasts until it's changed again. To show one for a while, change it, Wait, then change it back.

Example

Rotate the status: give it three lines, such as {server.memberCount} members, /help for commands and {server.onlineCount} online, and run it from a schedule every five minutes.
