### Getting your bot ID <a href="#step-1-creating-an-app" id="step-1-creating-an-app"></a>

First, you'll need to create an app in the developer portal if you don't have one already:

[<mark style="color:purple;">**Create App**</mark>](https://discord.com/developers/applications?new_application=true)

Enter a name for your app, then press Create.

After you create your app, you'll land on the General Overview page of the app's settings where you can update basic information about your app like its description and icon. You'll also see an **Application ID and Interactions Endpoint URL**, Copy that ID and paste on musico dashboard.

Once you add scopes, you should see a **URL** that you can copy to install your bot.

<div data-full-width="true"><figure><img src="https://1183716563-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FDHX3TIr2XcT7l4kzkmN6%2Fuploads%2FbsZdl3wCR3c4k87lhWvZ%2Ffa29b930b00a68b94429ace7bd4df4f9.png?alt=media&#x26;token=e0a8edc9-3577-4a49-8980-18e2589a9537" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

Copy the **URL** from above, and paste it into your browser. You'll be guided through the installation flow, where you should make sure you're installing your bot on a server where you can use it.
