Creating the bot

1. You must go to https://discord.com/developers/applications/
2. Create an application
3. Name your application
4. Save your changes
5. Open the Bot tab
6. Add bot and confirm

Add the bot to the server

This will be done by going to the following link: https://discord.com/api/oauth2/authorize?client_id=client_id&scope=bot. Replacing client_id with your actual client id

Get destination channel id

To be able that the bot knows which is the channel message that it must send the message, it's necessary to obtained the channel ID. This can be performed by following the steps described by this discord blog post. In summary the steps necessary for this, are the following

• Open the Discord App
• Enable developer mode. Found in the appearance settings
• Right click the message channel you want the bot to send messages to.
• Click on Copy ID
