Permissions: who can do what?
Who can open the dashboard, which commands are reserved for your team and how to switch commands on or off for your server.
Three layers work together in yurna: access to the dashboard, permissions for individual slash commands and the permissions of the bot itself. All three are based on your roles' Discord permissions – yurna doesn't need its own user management.
Who can use the dashboard?#
Anyone with Manage Server or Administrator on a server can open its dashboard; the server owner has both anyway. Server → Settings → Dashboard Access shows which roles that applies to on your server.
To give someone access, grant their role one of these permissions in Discord. If the server still doesn't show up in their server list, they can click Reload list there.
Warning
Manage Server also allows a lot inside Discord itself. Only give it to people you trust with your server's settings.
Who can use which commands?#
Most commands are open to all members. Commands for team tasks come with a default permission: members without it don't even see the command in Discord.
| Default permission | Commands (selection) |
|---|---|
| Administrator | /xp-settings, /reset-xp, /economy-settings, /statistics |
| Manage Server | /automod, /warn, /welcome, /leave, /logs, /emoji, /giveaway |
| Ban Members | /member |
| Timeout Members | /timeout, /untimeout |
| Manage Roles | /role |
| Manage Channels | /slowmode |
| Manage Messages | /clear, /embed |
Tip
Discord lets you adjust these defaults: in Discord under Server Settings → Integrations → yurna you choose per command which roles or channels may use it.
Switching commands on and off#
Under Modules & commands → Commands (/dashboard/<server>/modules?reiter=befehle) you control what runs on your server at all:
- Switch off a whole category at the top, for example “Fun” if you don't want fun commands.
- Expand a category below and switch off individual commands. This only works while the category itself is on.
A disabled command stays visible in Discord. Anyone who uses it gets a “Command disabled” or “Command category disabled” notice; members with Manage Server or Administrator are also told they can turn it back on in the dashboard.
The bot's own permissions#
What yurna itself is allowed to do depends on its role's permissions. Use /permissions to check that everything is in place. If yurna should assign roles, its role has to sit above those roles in the role list.
