Linked Roles

With Discord's Linked Roles, you can create special roles for server members that are restricted to certain verification requirements, such as linking a third-party account. Streamcord introduces additional custom functionality for your server's members, who can connect their Discord and Twitch accounts to Streamcord to receive a special role if they are a Twitch affiliate or partner.

Linked Roles are available to both free and Pro Streamcord users!

Note: This feature goes by the same name as a feature that was previously in private alpha for Pro subscribers and is currently on-hold. These features are not the same.

Setting up Linked Roles for your server

TIP

Use this Discord Help Center article for more information about Linked Roles.

WARNING

Information for Pro users who subscribed with Patreon:

This feature is only supported on the main bot (Streamcord), not Streamcord Pro. You must have the main bot in your server in order to use Linked Roles.

  1. In your server's settings, create a new role, or choose an existing one.

  2. In the role's settings, navigate to the "Links" tab.

  3. Click "Add requirement".

  4. In the "Add Connection" dialog box, under "Apps", choose Streamcord.

  5. Under the "Must connect Streamcord account" section, select one of the following toggles:

    • Twitch Affiliate: Only server members who connect their accounts to Streamcord and are an affiliate on Twitch will receive the role.
    • Twitch Partner: Only server members who connect their accounts to Streamcord and are a partner on Twitch will receive the role.

    WARNING

    Do not select both toggles! If you do, nobody will be able to receive the linked role.

  6. Save your changes.

Use a linked role as a filter role

Since linked roles work just like any other Discord role, they can be used as filter roles for your server's Live Role.

To set your server's Live Role filter role to a linked role, simply follow the same process you would for choosing any other filter role.

Receiving a linked role

Follow the guide from Discord about receiving linked roles in servers for instructions on how your server members can self-add linked roles.

During the role verification process, the member will be sent to Streamcord's website. If a server member is unable to verify their Twitch account, make sure that they have the streamcord.io domain and all subdomains whitelisted from any firewall or antivirus software.
