# How to Give Discord Permissions

> Configure the Suby bot permissions on your Discord server.

The Suby bot needs specific permissions to assign roles, send notifications, and manage access. Configure them at two levels, server-wide and per channel.

## Bot Permissions

Grant the following permissions to the Suby Bot role at the server level.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Server Settings">
    Go to **Settings → Server Settings → Roles**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select the Suby Bot role">
    Find and click on the **Suby Bot** role.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Go to Permissions">
    Open the **Permissions** tab and make sure the following are enabled:

    * View Channels
    * Send Messages
    * Send Messages in Threads
    * Embed Links
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Channel Permissions

To allow the bot to operate in a specific channel, configure permissions at the channel level.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the channel settings">
    Go to the channel, click **Edit Channel**, then open **Permissions**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add the Suby Bot">
    Go to **Advanced Permissions** and add **Suby Bot**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Grant the required permissions">
    Make sure the following are enabled:

    * View Channels
    * Send Messages
    * Send Messages in Threads
    * Embed Links
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  If the Suby bot is missing any of these permissions, it will not be able to assign or revoke roles, which will break your access gating flow.
