The Discord bot
What the CEEJAY bot does in your server, what it needs, and where to find its commands.
The bot is the part of CEEJAY that lives in your Discord server. Everything you see in the dashboard starts with it: it watches what happens in your community, runs the features you switch on, posts what you schedule and answers slash commands. This section covers the commands. Everything else the bot does is set up from the dashboard, on the page for each feature.
What the bot does
- It collects activity for your analytics. It reads messages and reactions in the channels it can see, and tracks voice time, joins and leaves, invites and the activity members share on Discord. Channels you leave out of analytics are left out of the analytics numbers; the content lists (User Content, Saved Content and the Starboard) still show them. See Bot settings.
- It runs your features. Tickets, polls, giveaways, quests, the shop, XP and levels, react roles, verification, welcome cards and social feeds all post and act through the bot.
- It posts what you schedule. Discord Messages, ticket panels and the other messages you send from the dashboard are posted by the bot. Each one needs the bot to have permission to post in that channel.
- It gives and takes roles. Level rewards, react roles, verification and shop roles are given by the bot, and it can only give a role that sits below its own in your server's role list.
- It answers commands. Members and moderators use slash commands and right-click actions for XP, the shop, quests, suggestions and more. See Commands.
What the bot needs
CEEJAY asks for the Administrator permission when you add it, so that every feature can work. If you remove permissions later, the features that need them pause, and the Connection check step of setup, reached from Settings → General → Community profile, tells you which. See Add the bot and Troubleshooting.
You can give the bot its own name, picture and banner in your server, and switch any of its commands off. See Bot settings.
