Event Permissions

Ensure ReactionBot has the necessary permissions in the channel where events will be created.

Without these permissions, certain parts of the Events system may not function correctly.

Allows ReactionBot to access the selected event channel.

If the bot cannot view the channel, it cannot create or manage events there.

Allows ReactionBot to post event messages, countdowns, and optional end messages.

Without this permission, events cannot be published.

Allows ReactionBot to display rich event embeds instead of plain text messages.

Event information, countdowns, and participant details are presented using embeds for improved readability.

Allows ReactionBot to place the event reaction on newly created event messages.

Members use this reaction to join the event.

Allows ReactionBot to monitor event messages and keep participant information up to date.

This permission is also required for reaction-triggered events that monitor an existing Discord message.

Recommended for features that remove trigger reactions or otherwise manage reactions on event messages.

While some event types may function without it, granting this permission ensures the full feature set works correctly.

Many servers create a dedicated events channel where ReactionBot has the required permissions while keeping other channels unaffected.

Review channel-specific permission overrides to ensure they do not block the bot from posting or reacting.

If an event cannot be created or does not behave as expected, verify that ReactionBot has the required permissions in the selected channel.

Also ensure the channel is visible to the bot and that no channel-specific permission overrides are preventing normal operation.
