Discord Bot Token
Why does Cookie API need my Bot’s Token?
Cookie API needs your bot’s token for tasks such as retrieving messages from a specified channel via the Transcript Endpoint. To accomplish this, temporary access to your Discord bot is necessary, as the process involves interacting directly with Discord’s servers. Additionally, the token is used to authenticate requests, allowing us to gather relevant details like channel names, server names, and other essential information. Rest assured, this access is strictly temporary and used solely for these specific functions.
Do i have to include my Bot Token in the Request
Yes and no. You can register your Bot Token on our Dashboard and then use {BOT_TOKEN}
or {TOKEN_SECRET}
in your Request. You can set which Bot should be used by clicking the ‘default’ button on the Dashboard. You can also manually define the Bot you want to use by replacing the ‘bot_token’ parameter with ‘bot_id’ and use your Bot ID to specify a Bot.
