Discord

Give agents a presence in your Discord server. Post and manage messages, open threads, react, DM members, assign roles, and relay through webhooks over the Discord REST API.

A moderation agent detects a flagged post in a community channel during its polling pass

Agent reads the message content and the author's current roles

Agent confirms the post matches a policy rule, not a false positive

Agent posts the flagged post to the mod channel with a summary of the rule it matched

Agent adds a check-mark and cross-mark reaction to the summary as a simple vote

A moderator reacts with the check mark to confirm removal; the agent deletes the post and applies the role change

What This Integration Enables

FlowRunner agents use Discord to run community and internal operations without a moderator watching every channel. An agent can post rich embeds for release notes and status, open a thread per incident or support ticket, DM a member a personalized reminder, and assign or remove roles as external data changes. Because Discord delivers events over its Gateway rather than HTTP webhooks, agents detect new activity by polling recent messages. The value is not the automated post. It is that the agent handles the routine and pulls a human in for the calls a community should not automate.

Without FlowRunner

Manual patrol Moderators scroll channels hoping to catch problem posts in time

Inconsistent calls The same kind of post gets handled differently depending on who sees it

No record Removals happen with no note of who decided or why

With FlowRunner

Agent surfaces the flag The agent brings the flagged post and the matched rule to the mod channel

One clear vote A reaction confirms or rejects the action in one tap

Logged moderation Each removal is captured with the moderator who confirmed it

Use Case Scenarios

Reaction-gated moderation

A moderation agent polls community channels with Get Messages. When a post matches a policy rule, it does not delete anything on its own. It posts the flagged content to the moderator channel with a plain summary of which rule matched, then adds a check-mark and cross-mark reaction to its own summary. A moderator taps the check mark. The agent reads the reactions on its next pass, deletes the original post, and removes the offending role. A wrong flag simply gets the cross mark and nothing happens.

Per-incident triage threads

When a support request arrives from another system, the agent calls Create Thread to open a dedicated triage thread and Send Message to post the request details for the team. Follow-up stays in the thread instead of scattering across the channel, and the thread can be archived when the issue closes.

Role-based onboarding

A workflow reads a list of new signups from another system. For each one, the agent resolves the member with Get Guild Member and calls Add Role To Member so onboarded users automatically receive the right server role. Offboarding runs the reverse with Remove Role From Member. Access tracks reality without a human editing roles by hand.

Human-in-Loop Highlight

The human-in-loop moment on Discord is the reaction gate. When the moderation agent matches a post against a policy rule, it treats that match as a suggestion, not a verdict. It posts the flagged post to the mod channel and adds two reactions: a check mark for remove, a cross mark for keep. A moderator taps one. On its next polling pass the agent reads the reactions with Get Messages, and only a confirmed check mark leads it to delete the post and change the member's role. The agent does the watching and the summarizing. A person makes the removal call, and the reaction is the record that they did.

Get Message Fetch a single message by ID. Used to pull exact content the agent needs to reason over.
Get Messages Read recent messages from a channel. Because Discord has no HTTP webhooks, agents poll with Get Messages to detect new activity and read reactions.
Send Direct Message Send a private message to a member the bot shares a server with. Used to route a personal reminder without pinging the whole channel.
