Create a Thread

This action cannot be used for forum channels! For forum thread creation, use discord API here.

The Create a Thread block enables you to create threads within your server through commands or events.

Each created thread has a unique variable that you can use to reference the thread in your command and can be identified by just looking for {created_thread_xyz}.

Channel

To create the thread, you need to specify what channel you are going to create the thread in. There is three provided options to achieve this.

Channel the command was run in

This selection will create the thread in the channel that the command / event was executed in or where a button / menu option was clicked.

Channel option

By selecting the channel option type, it will prompt to make a new field where you can select the channel option and the bot will create the thread there. Only channel options can be selected in this field, for IDs and variables use Channel ID.

Channel Option

A channel option must be added to the command for this selection to work.

Channel ID

This selection will allow the bot to create the thread in a specific channel ID or variable.

Channel ID

Input a plain channel ID into the field below. The ID must be plain and have no extra symbols or spaces. Likewise a variable can be used if it returns a plain channel ID.

Start Message ID

This an optional field allows you to create the thread from a specific message. The only input for this field is a plain message ID with no extra symbols or spaces. A variable can be used as well.

Name

This is a required option, and it is the name of the thread that you want to create. You can use variables or options as well.

Type

This is an optional option (public is default), and it is the type of thread that you want to create. You can choose from 3 types of thread types.

Type	Information

Auto Archive

This is an optional field, and it is the time in which the thread will auto-archive itself. You can choose from 4 options:

• One Hour

• One Day

• Three Days

• One Week

Reason

This is an optional field. In this field you can input a reason why you are creating a thread. This reason will be shown in your server's audit log. Variables can also be used in this field.

Slowmode

This is an optional field, also known as rate limit per user, it allows you to set a slowmode in the thread for each user unless the user has been bypassed. This field only accepts integers, and variables can be used.

Moderators Invite

This option is only valid if the thread type is a Private Thread. This field is optional and it allows you to toggle whether a non-moderator can invite other users to the thread.

Variables

You can now access various variables from the created thread and use them throughout your custom command (as long as it is in the same interaction). You can use these variables by just adding them to the end of the {created_thread_abcd} variable, but before the }. The 4 characters "abcd" are shown in your create thread block at the top.

An example to get the name would be like this: {created_thread_48f3.name}.

Enable Success/Error Handles

Enable Success / Error Handles to detect success and errors inside of the action block. This allows you to run different actions if something goes wrong with your action. Inside of the handle, there are 2 different paths which are used to detect the outcome of the action. The green path on the bottom left side of the block indicates success, while the red path on the bottom right side of the block indicates error. You may attach action blocks to each side of the handle to get the outcome of your action block.

The Success/Error Handles feature includes 3 different error variables you can use to get information on why the action block encountered an error. Check them out here.
