Discord linking connects your Minecraft profile to your Discord account. Once linked, the Netherite Discord server gives you roles that match your in-game ranks. You can link from the game or from the website. Links are permanent: one Discord account belongs to one Minecraft profile.
What linking gives you#
- Discord roles that follow your ranks. A linked member gets a "linked" role plus a role for each of your ranks that has a matching Discord role. Roles are updated when you join the game and again on a regular schedule.
- Bot features that need your profile, such as Discord direct messages for marketplace alerts if you turn them on (Account Settings).
- Optional public handle. You can choose to show your Discord name on your website profile. It is hidden by default.
- Boost status. The game can tell whether you are boosting the Discord server (Discord Boosting).
- Discord rewards. Claim them on the website's Discord rewards page:
- Server tag reward: 100 Gems every 7 days while you wear the Netherite server tag on your Discord profile.
- Booster reward: 250 Gems every 30 days while you boost the Netherite Discord server.
Linking on its own does not hand out a reward.
Link from the game#
- Type
/link(alias/sync). The game prints a code of 6 characters that is valid for 5 minutes. If your account is already linked, you see "Your Minecraft account is already linked to Discord." - Open Discord and send the code to the Netherite bot. Use the bot's
/linkcommand and put the code in thecodefield. The message in game tells you to send it as a direct message to the bot, so nobody else sees your code. - The bot replies "Successfully linked your Discord account to your Minecraft account!" and the game shows "Success! Linked to Discord account: Name".
If you paste /link CODE as an ordinary chat message instead of using the command, the bot also accepts it and deletes your message when it can.
| Bot reply | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Your link code is invalid! | The code was mistyped or never created. Run /link in game again. |
| Your link code has expired! Run /link in-game again for a fresh one. | More than 5 minutes passed. |
| This Minecraft account is already linked to a Discord account! | Links are permanent. Open a support ticket if the link needs to change. |
Link from the website#
Sign in to the website (Signing In to the Website), open Account settings, and find the Discord card.
- Link with Discord connects through Discord's own sign-in. The site only asks Discord for your user ID, name and avatar.
- If Discord sign-in is unavailable, Generate a code on the same card and use it with the bot's
/linkcommand. - Once linked the card shows your Discord name, a switch for Show Discord handle on profile, and a link to Discord rewards. There is no unlink button.
The in-game Discord menu#
/discordmenu opens a small three-slot menu:
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| Unlink your Discord | Explains that links are permanent. |
| Information | Explains Discord boosting. |
| Statistics | Shows your Discord ID, Discord name, the date you linked and whether you are boosting. |
Links are permanent#
You cannot unlink yourself. /unlink (alias /unsync) in game, the Unlink your Discord button in /discordmenu and the bot's /unlink command on Discord all reply that Discord links are permanent.
If a link really needs to change, for example because you lost access to your Discord account, open a support ticket (Contacting Staff). Staff can remove a link and record the reason. Removing a link does not reset the Discord reward timers: they follow both your Minecraft profile and your Discord account.
Reminders to link#
Players who have not linked get a chat reminder every 5 minutes with the Discord invite and the /link instruction. It carries a clickable invite and a clickable /link. The reminders stop once you link, and you can switch them off in your settings (Settings and Options).
Other Discord commands in game#
/discord prints the Discord invite link in chat. It is available in the hub and in every gamemode.
