# Guild Applications

{% hint style="info" %}
It is expected that you have the bot invited already before using the guide but here is a link just in case: <https://invite.goldendev.net>\
\
If you ever need to send someone a link to a specific portion of a page you can find the # symbol next to the headings and that will set your page URL (which you then copy) to take the individual that clicks the link directly to the specified content.

## Configuration of Golden Bot's Integration

The following is a guide to using Golden Bot to add functionality to Discord's Guild Applications system.

### Create Notifications Channel

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Open the server menu" %}
Open the server menu

<figure><img src="/files/FXAgCC2TThZPGZTun4On" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Click 'Create Channel'" %}
Click 'Create Channel'

<figure><img src="/files/RYFiHsWa4Fv7uCamRaPX" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Name the channel & set it to private" %}

<figure><img src="/files/UJJYWKBqwJI3QsVD9hcB" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Create!" %}
Select the roles (if any) that should have access to this channel, you will always have access to it if you're the true owner of the server

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### Your Perspective (Before)

Normally you won't receive a notification of a new application being created, you need to open the members tab and it isn't available on mobile (yet) via Discord's standard system:

<figure><img src="/files/tV0eh5bhOlp633j6Dkx9" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

### Your Perspective (After)

The notification message provides a convenient way of viewing recent applications on any device with all the same information as the "official" view, with a convenient button to enter the members menu and manage pending applications.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Creation Message" %}
Creation Message (includes mention of specified role)

<figure><img src="/files/oyYLdK93sqiOFLsIR8Ce" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Acceptance Message" %}
Acceptance Message (doesn't include mention of specified role)

<figure><img src="/files/9Lh9sLVQJbL6W3wUxrJ1" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Denial Message" %}
Denial Message (doesn't include mention of specified role)

<figure><img src="/files/mP7lS4WQh8euhrctAQJZ" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### How to Disable the Feature

If at any point you wish to Disable the feature simply press the Disable Feature button after running the command again with or without arguments.
