Changing Settings

Customize SecurityBot to fit your community’s needs with simple in-Discord commands.

SecurityBot offers flexible configuration options, all controlled through slash commands directly within Discord. These settings allow you to fine-tune how SecurityBot operates in your community, from filters and roles to verification and purge behaviour.

Only users with the Admin role or Discord’s Administrator permission can modify settings.


View Your Current Configuration

/settings view

Displays a private summary of your current setup, including:

  • Log channel

  • Admin and mod role

  • Filter status and settings

  • Chat alerts

  • And more!

Use this command to quickly verify your bot’s core configuration.


Each filter and list has its own view subcommand. For example:

/chat_filters address view
/chat_filters domain view
/user_filters nickname view
/user_filters avatar view
/chat_filters exempt_channel view

These let you view allowed addresses, domains, handles, invites, blocked nicknames, protected avatars, exempt channels, and exempt categories.


Best Practices

  • Assign admin privileges only to trusted teammates

  • Keep logs visible only to necessary users

  • Regularly review allowlists using the relevant view subcommands

  • Use /settings view to confirm SecurityBot's core settings
