Permissions
The permissions requested by ATOMCAL in this screenshot are specific to managing and interacting with a Discord server. Here's a breakdown of each permission and its potential purpose:
- Manage Channels
Allows the application to create, delete, and modify channels within the server. This is useful for setting up event-specific channels or restructuring server layouts based on calendar needs. - Manage Events
Enables the application to handle scheduled events, including creating, editing, and deleting events directly within the server. - Create Events
Specifically grants the application the ability to schedule and post new events. This is important for managing and notifying users about events. - Send Messages
Allows the bot to post messages in channels, which can include announcements, event details, or updates. - Send Messages in Threads
Grants the bot the ability to participate in and send messages within threads, ensuring seamless communication about events within threaded discussions. - Create Public Threads
Enables the bot to create public threads for organizing discussions, particularly useful for event-specific topics. - Manage Messages
Allows the bot to delete or edit messages within the server. This can help maintain clean and relevant event-related communication. - Manage Threads
Provides control over threads, such as archiving or deleting them when they are no longer needed. - Mention @everyone, @here, and All Roles
Allows the bot to notify all members or specific roles about events, ensuring important announcements reach the intended audience. - Use External Emojis
Enables the use of emojis from other servers, allowing for a more expressive and branded communication style in messages. - Use Application Commands
Provides access to slash commands that enhance user interaction with the application, such as checking event details or subscribing to notifications.
These permissions ensure that ATOMCAL can fully integrate into the Discord server, managing events effectively and interacting with users as needed. However, granting these permissions should be done thoughtfully, especially for sensitive permissions like managing messages or using @everyone
mentions, as they can impact the user experience and server moderation.
