401 from the api means no, or bad auth

[prisma cedar]

i thought maybe that it means that i don't have rights to send an message in the channel which would be weird since i am admin

[static oak]

that would be a 403 unless the sdk works completely different from the rest of the api

[prisma cedar]

hmm ok

[prisma cedar]

Ok i think i fixed it i used client.GetDefaultScopes and not GetDefaultCommunicationScopes

[prisma cedar]

ok i have another question 😅 is there an way to "control" provisional accounts like automatically adding them to an discord server upon creation?

[icy compass]

provisional accounts can't join a discord server - they only exist in the context of the social sdk

they can show up in a linked lobby, but that's about it.

[prisma cedar]

I think this is what I need. I'd like them to be able to send messages to a linked channel, or can I just give them permission without them being in the server?

[dim meadow]

Found a glitch

[icy compass]

lobby messages that are linked go back and forth to the channel that is linked, regardless of what account type people have

[torpid aurora]

not sure if this is the right place, but is the discord social SDK used for simply having my game registered as a "game" on discord with a game page / visual assets? that's all i'm interested in doing (not rich presence or anything) but haven't been able to find any concrete info about how games get registered for that

[shut jetty]

No I don't think that a thing the social SDK handles. The social SDK is for rich presence and friends list integration and other things like that

[torpid aurora]

that’s sort of what i thought. i haven’t been able to find any information on discord’s FAQs though about how to just get a game verified

[prisma cedar]

I think through contacting Discord per Email or maybe by sending in your project after implementing the social sdk 🤔

[full iron]

@icy compass Do you guys accept PRs to libdave on GitHub?

[sudden lava]

does SDK have any safety issues? am working on the extension for vs code and the sdk pull out all channels from this servers. so i seen channels which should not be visible to unauthorized members. lucky the sdk wont let me see the messages content of each channels

[sinful torrent]

The API returns all channel objects regardless of user permissions

[icy compass]

You know - that's a good question. We aren't clear on the github repo. I assume we might, but I'll go check.

[icy compass]

I just checked, we don't take PRs right now. But would happily take issues for bugs, suggestions, etc.

We'll be updating the contributing guide shortly.

[full iron]

I sent a PR for it, should I close it? It just cleans up some code is all.

[icy compass]

No harm in leaving it open - they may just take the suggestions

[sudden lava]

Hi! Quick question about our Discord Social SDK extension:

We relay stateless lobby messages through a third-party API = vercel (no storage, immediate pass-through only).
DMs go directly via SDK, never through our API.

Is the stateless lobby message relay TOS-compliant ?
Also - safe to use Discord_Client_StartCall() for lobby voice?

Thanks!

[dusty mango]

is there a nodejs/npm implementation for this?

[sly ocean]

I would assume it’s ToS compliant. Don’t see why what you’re doing wouldn’t be as it’s pretty common.

[weak pike]

Good morning/afternoon/evening, I have a question about the Social SDK.

Is there a version or wrapper for the SDK in Javascript?

[dull obsidian]

The Social SDK is for compiled languages and as far as I know it's only available in C++. if you want to write games for Discord using JavaScript there's Discord Activities

[weak pike]

I'm looking into Discord Activities and it might be better for what I'm trying to do. Thank you.

[mortal topaz]

Will the Social SDK ever support x86? Unfortunately a lot of developers, such as myself, are stuck on x86 and do not have the option to shy away from it what-so-ever.

[full jasper]

i have a question about the social sdk (Public Client)

what does the option change because i already have oAuth for my website does this setting change anything in my existing auth or only for the sdk

[static oak]

it just enables the public auth as well, shouldn't impact that at all

[frigid gorge]

You mean 32 bit x86?

[mortal topaz]

Im unaware of any other x86 lol

But yes

[full jasper]

did someone allready used the social sdk with rust?

if yes did you use any compiler like llvm or cxx.rs

[humble bolt]

so how can i set rich pressence without having the user auth with my app? because how do other games automatically set this up for me?

[static oak]

if no auth is done it falls back to rpc, aka it connects to the locally running client

[humble bolt]

and can i count on this working magically on linux? 😭

[static oak]

it should, if it's a proper linux install with the proper client

[humble bolt]

its the flathub pkg, so im assuming

[tranquil robin]

i think flatpak blocks the normal ipc connections, it does some other thing that you need a bridge for

[humble bolt]

but it works if the user auths?

[tranquil robin]

if you use the social sdk and the user auths, the sdk connects directly to discords api and sets your presence. if the user doesn't auth, it uses rpc which connects to the locally running discord client

[spice barn]

Hey guys, does anyone know if there's any moderation on the chat lobbies? I was looking at using Automod but it appears like it may only be for channels not for lobbies, can anyone confirm? We're using lobbies in our game and we'd like to moderate them if they are not linked so there's no profanity

[icy compass]

We have a whole guide on moderation: https://discord.com/developers/docs/discord-social-sdk/how-to/integrate-moderation

[spice barn]

awesome thanks Mark!

[icy compass]

If you check out changelog, we have more to come in this space.

[vernal prairie]

Hi folks, i'm using the Discord client social SDK for my unity app. I'm supporting both provisional account and full discord merged accounts , letting them add each other as friends using the _client.SendDiscordFriendRequest() function. I attach our discord bot token for this action.
Overall this has been working fine for friend requests for provisional <-> provisional , full <-> provisional , and full <-> full.
But I do sometimes run into this error response from the sdk
"{Type=HTTPError, Error=Incoming friend requests disabled, ErrorCode=80000, Status=BadRequest, ResponseBody={"message": "Incoming friend requests disabled", "code": 80000}"
The code 80000 maps in the docs to "Incoming friend requests disabled" but this isnt accurate because the users im adding cant disable friend requests. Is there anything that can trigger this response?

[vernal prairie]

I'm also curious if i should be using the Discord_Client_SendGameFriendRequest function since i'm working with provisional accounts.

[vernal prairie]

cc @icy compass if you're able to assist with this, would be greatly appreciated 🙏

"sometimes" does not make a debuggable problem 😁

Can you provide reproduction steps? What version of the sdk, what the code looks like, etc?

[twin pier]

Is there a way to download the sdk directly without the google auth thing? I cannot add 900mbs of sdk to a github repo, downloading it with cmake would be better

[grim token]

you arent supposed to have the sdk in the repo afaik

[twin pier]

Then how am I supposed to declare it as a dependency?

[coral kindle]

is the social sdk thread safe?

[shut jetty]

What do you mean?

[coral kindle]

like if is accessed by multiple threads at the same time no race condition

[shut jetty]

Oh "thread safe" sorry I misread... Sorry I'm not 100% sure. My assumption is yes but I don't know with confidence

[coral kindle]

i dont either but i think i've seen things in stack traces involving something of it

[jade spear]

Since most of the way you interface with the Social SDK is callbacks from the client you could kick off threads to react to those callbacks when you get them. I'm not fully sure accessing the client from multiple threads is safe though so you could also put a lock around it. What's your multithreaded use case?

[coral kindle]

an odd personal project of mine haha

i've been tinkering for roughly about a year now on just porting the 'cdiscord' file to swift so i can make random apps with it and other functionalities of my macbook

[coral kindle]

how can i use the social sdk for just rich presence

i'm trying to not login/auth at all on purpose rn

[icy compass]

[twin pier]

Are there language bindings other than C++ and Unity?

[dull obsidian]

There’s also Unreal Engine bindings

https://discord.com/developers/docs/discord-social-sdk/getting-started#lets-get-started

[twin pier]

that's c++

[dull obsidian]

The bindings themselves are C bindings with a C++ header file to “C++ ify” the code. So you might be able to create bindings for other languages that have some sort of C compatibility layer

[frigid gorge]

yeah the SDK is still C based, I bet it's an extension of the legacy game SDK lol.

There's a C header in social sdk you can use from your language. I did that with Swift, cause I didn't want to learn how to use the C++ Swift interop (there was even a prepared library included for iOS i think, but i havent looked at it yet)

[tranquil robin]

no the GameSDK was written in Rust, the Social SDK is C++ for console reasons

[frigid gorge]

oh really? good to know. since it had a plain C header i assumed it was written in C

[spring skiff]

Hello Guys Using Custom RPC In Mobile Is Legal?

[coral kindle]

I’ve been working on a layer between swift and the c header

Way nicer to work with and I made a kind of copy on write between the smaller objects

[unreal prairie]

No

[spring skiff]

Okay

[grim token]

<@&1050493473033289778>

[spiral cosmos]

I don't think so

[frigid gorge]

nice. open source? would love to contirbute since i did some stuff too, although i suck at c so mine were pretty bad

[coral kindle]

I want it to be but I have it in a private git repo rn

It doesn’t feel polished enough to me to publish

Also how to distribute it since you need the lib to link against and you can’t redistribute it either

[twin pier]

Is there a reason why rich presence activity time is updated every x seconds instead of being a fluid timer?

[vernal prairie]

ah ok i found what it is. There were some users who did have their friend requests turned off in their discord settings but were not aware.
A follow-up to my second question: Can I use the discord sdk to only support game-friend relationships? or am i required to support both types? Theres a line in the docs "If the user is not yet a friend, show both options of adding as either a Game or Discord Friend" , so I wanted to check if thats a hard requirement to support both.

[icy compass]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/discord-social-sdk/core-concepts/communication-features#applying-for-increased-rate-limits-for-production-releases is what you are looking for

[vernal prairie]

Got it, so game-friends is optional but full-discord-account linking is a hard req.

[dusk bough]

Is there an official SDK for rich presence on Swift? Or is anyone working on an open source version

Oh

nvm I literally see it 2 chats above lol

[dusk bough]

alr i build this in claude code it works pretty good, if anyone is looking for a swift social SDK https://github.com/beb050123/DiscordPresenceKit

dunno how to make it dynamic though so if someone want to play around with it then feel free

[frigid gorge]

have you looked in the zip you downloaded? there's a lib for swift , although ios oriented iirc

i think it's a module or whatever swift wants you to usually make when doing c++ interop

[dusk bough]

no i didnt check

[dawn shell]

How do I put my id in for the verification cause I went to the service page and couldn't find it

[sinful torrent]

There is a verification tab on the dev portal, then you can click on either the text that says "bot owner must complete identity verification" or there might be a separate button, I cant remember.

[shell wadi]

Hello everyone, I just wanted to ask if there is a way to download the most recent SDK zip (a link to always download it)
My intention is to put in a CI/CD so I can update my project whenever a new version is out
(I want to avoid making a crawler)

[dusk bough]

just inspect elemtn the link to download and it should show s3 distrubituin link

then call it in your github actions to pull

@shell wadi

[shell wadi]

doesn't that link change each release?

oh sorry, you are right I think that it changes

it would require me to login to get the newest version if true

[neon jungle]

are there any open source android projects that use discord’s standalone c++ social sdk for rich presence?

[carmine umbra]

Why is the mobile discord community setting so buggy

[harsh granite]

Do you have to have a company and/or game in order to apply to use the social sdk? I've been making a hobby project, a geometry dash mod that deafens the user when they get to a certain point in the level, and I would like to switch from just simulating the user's keybind to something more formal and consistent. I tried RPC, and that works well, but by the looks of it I can't publish it without every user having to make their own application because of authentication. I would like to apply to use the social sdk, as it looks like it could fit my use case, but there are required fields for "Company Name" and such. Am I able to apply just as a hobbyist without a company?

[feral gorge]

Hi. Does anybody know how to interface with per user voice settings for the client? I've hunted around the docs and can only see an ability to touch that via RPC, which to my knowledge is now depricated. My application for this is a physical user voice mixer, i.e. a mixing desk like device. I would prefer using an official API, but otherwise I am considering having a look into the IPC routes/adding a script to the electron app itself. I assume this would be the correct channel to ask in?

[shut jetty]

Discord's RPC scope is currently in Private Beta and is not accepting new projects/developers... hypothetically, you could have users create their own Application to enable the scope but to my knowledge, that is the only way to interact with voice settings autonomously

[feral gorge]

Does that mean that it works so long as I create an application for myself, it just isn't easy to share it with others?

I assumed private beta meant it wouldn't work in any way

[shut jetty]

If you have a restricted scope enabled, people other than you (and likely other members of a Developer Team in the dev portal) cannot authorize your application

-# I am not 100% certain on this so worth double checking

[feral gorge]

That will work completely fine, as it is a personal project. Thank you! I will have a play around with it then

[feral gorge]

Does anyone know how to set RPC (as in Remote Procedure Call) origin? I get a forbidden error at the moment citing an invalid origin received 4001 (private use) Invalid Origin; then sent 4001 (private use) Invalid Origin. I've looked online and it seems is was in the past set when an application was made, but that is no longer asked at app creation, and I cannot see RPC Client in the developer app settings

[median hull]

hey friends! curious if it is possible to only have a small amount of these. i'd use openid sdk.social_layer but my game doesn't need access to voice chat or direct messaging, just the lobbies and linked channels. i can't seem to find a scope that would limit to additionally adding just those two

[olive heron]

Hey I do not think there is a smaller scope for just lobbies and linked channels. If you need those you have to use openid sdk.social_layer which also includes voice and DMs. You do not have to actually use voice or messaging in your game though. There just is no more granular option right now.

[primal socket]

is there an endpoint to check for registered games w/ discord sdk ?

[tranquil robin]

websocket rpc is not publicly supported, we only support connecting over ipc which is what most libraries use

[dusky epoch]

What does DISCORD_API void Discord_SetFreeThreaded() do? It's undocumented and not in the C++ header

[dense lynx]

Hello, i have a question, why doesn't the SDK show who invited whom?

[narrow yew]

most SDKs don’t automatically expose “who invited whom” because referral/invite relationships are considered application-level data, not core SDK data.

[narrow yew]

[dense lynx]

Okay, I understand, thank you 😄

[rustic cargo]

Hello, could you advise if it is possible to implement Discord Social SDK (chat) into a Minecraft plugin or mod?

[icy compass]

If you can do the C++ interop you are good to go, but you should be aware of development rate limits: https://docs.discord.com/developers/discord-social-sdk/core-concepts/communication-features#rate-limits

[tribal shoal]

Hello.
I want to use the voice chat feature of the Unity SDK with anonymous OAuth.
Because I don't want my users to have a discord account.
I just want to make them able to speak in a multiplayer room.
I think it's called provisional accounts

2. Does Discord Social SDK let's Unity dev to have positionnal voice chat ? I mean, can I put the voice on any AudioSource I want ? even a 3D one ? For each user talking in the same lobby ?

[icy compass]

See: https://docs.discord.com/developers/discord-social-sdk/development-guides/managing-voice-chat#advanced-audio-processing

But also see linked above documentation on developer rate limits on communications tools

[tribal shoal]

thank you. do you have the same for C# within unity ?

[icy compass]

All the SDK methods match up

[fair wave]

gonna see if i can get past the burnout of doing this again

[cerulean trellis]

Can a client be in more than one voice lobby at once? I would like to have two lobbies in my game:

• A "team" lobby for each side
• A "global" lobby where everyone can talk

[sacred spear]

Unfortunately that is not possible. As soon as you jump into the team channel, you're kicked out of the global voice. You can only be in one slot at a time.

[mortal topaz]

Still praying for a 32bit distributable

[hollow echo]

..

...

Yes yeah

[tranquil robin]

Windows doesn't even support 32 bit devices anymore, and Discord is 64 bit only, so we have no plans to support the sdk on 32 bit

[lean sorrel]

Hey Discord team, I'm implementing the Discord social SDK for our product, and I'm looking for some clarification on the relationship between Linked Channels and Lobbies. The documentation for linked channels says you recommend using channel linking only for persistent lobbies, but the docs for lobbies say that they're intended to be ephemeral. We have a use case where linked channels could be great (we want a server manager to be able to connect their in-game server's chat to their discord channel), but the docs seem to imply that they'll have to make a new lobby and reconnect their channel every time they come back from a break. Is increasing the lobby lifetime to 7 days our best option here?

[dusky epoch]

I'm not Discord staff, but IIUC it's not possible to use the Discord Social SDK alone to link a lobby to a channel. See https://discord.com/developers/docs/social-sdk/classdiscordpp_1_1LobbyHandle.html#autotoc_md10

Lobbies can be linked to a channel on Discord, which allows messages sent in one place to show up in the other. Any lobby can be linked to a channel, but only lobby members with the LobbyMemberFlags::CanLinkLobby flag are allowed to a link a lobby. This flag must be set using the server APIs, which allows you to ensure that only clan/guild/group leaders can link lobbies to Discord channels.

[lean sorrel]

Oh yeah it's no problem to implement that server-side, I just wanted to understand how to best approach this for our use case of long-running servers

[dusky epoch]

considering your use case, the game-server itself would count as a client and your lobbies would never expire assuming the server doesn't go offline for more than the expiration time, you can just check that the lobby is still valid on startup and if not spin up a new one

do note that lobbies created through the server api are not joinable by clients using the social sdk

Clients will not be able to join or leave a lobby created using this API via the SDK functions (such as discordpp::Client::CreateOrJoinLobby). Returns the created Lobby object.
https://discord.com/developers/docs/social-sdk/server_apis.html#autotoc_md92

additional constraint:

CreateOrJoinLobby
This function shouldn't be used for long lived lobbies. The "secret" value expires after ~30 days, at which point the existing lobby cannot be joined and a new one would be created instead.
https://discord.com/developers/docs/social-sdk/classdiscordpp_1_1Client.html#a8b4e195555ecaa89ccdfc0acd28d3512

[lean sorrel]

ahh I see, we don't run dedicated servers though, we only run them when the user is actually using them

[dusky epoch]

your flow would likely look like

• gameserver starts up
• gameserver authenticates with your centralized server
• gameserver sends create lobby request to centralized server
• centralized server calls the discord server API to create lobby (and set permissions for server lobby member)
• gameserver can then ask your centralized server to link the lobby to a channel
• when users join your gameserver, you'll call the centralized server and ask it to add members to your lobby for you

this handshake would have to happen every time you restarted the server

[dusky epoch]

the docs actually suggest using GetOrJoinLobby for this is completely impossble, lol

Lobbies created on the client side with secrets are also not eligible for channel linking.
https://docs.discord.com/developers/discord-social-sdk/development-guides/linked-channels#lobby-requirements

[lean sorrel]

That makes sense, I guess I'll just need to persist the channel the lobby needs to link to in my database so the user doesn't have to pick at startup every time

[dusky epoch]

probably easier to just write it to your server.properties or w/e instead of handling persistence on your servers

Is there a way to link a channel in my unity app and have messages appear in the discord channel itself that are sent from in game? I managed to get a working channel between users, but it didn't populate the discord channel. This is specifically for unity sdk

[deep valley]

hey, just hopped on the dev docs unity quickstart, however, I am stumped on how it just fully assumes you'll go with a public client right after telling you thats a bad idea, and has no instructions on how to eventually not do that, and even when you click through, it does not tell you which methods are limited by not doing that.

So, I just wanted to suggest/request clarifications on which "Some Social SDK methods" a confidential client restricts you from, and if/how it changes the quickstart.

[static oak]

it uses public client cause its the easiest way of showing what the sdk can do and to help you get started faster. you can always change it after

because confidential clients require all token exchanges to happen on the backend, this is a lot more work

[deep valley]

I understand, but is there an actual bit of documentation on how to implement it as confidential?

[static oak]

isn't it just oauth?

[deep valley]

"just oauth" doesn't tell me much, I've not done much web stuff before, reading through the docs it explains what a conf v public client is, but not the specific bits of the api it affects nor how to make it not public

[static oak]

ah oauth is an industry standard auth protocol really

discord tends to not explain those

not very beginner friendly i agree, but they kinda assume if you're building anything you know these things already

[deep valley]

I've got almost 10 years in gamedev now, but I've never done anything that required an account, so

anywhere else on the internet explain how to convert from public to confidential? also I wouldn't say this is just "not beginner friendly", it's unreal-tier missing documentation. I'll simply try going through the quickstart w/o setting it to public until it explodes I guess

[static oak]

doesn't seem like they wrote anything about that

i would assume the individual method docs mention it if they need anything specific?

[deep valley]

okay, thankfully, after doing a lot of digging, I managed to find the rich presence without auth flow, which I assume I will be able to do without setting it to public, assuming I can get that far down the main tutorial. The docs are rather circular, but if you dig through it, they specifically do have a section on how to set it up for a confidential client, which definitely just needs linked on the many mentions of client types that send you in circles

[static oak]

the one without auth iirc is only for connecting to a local client

[deep valley]

that's more than fine enough with me, it's a way smoother user flow than asking for a login

if and when the console port comes I can look into all that

[static oak]

may be enough for what you need if the game and discord run on the same pc, but you need the auth to set it without the local discord client running on pc

[deep valley]

I don't know why I'd want rich presence or game invites without being online on discord

[static oak]

it's not about being online

it's about the user having the discord desktop client installed and running on the same machine

[deep valley]

yes, I understand, but the main use case of discord for games is that someone has a discord account, and a game running on their computer. Highly likely that both are running at once, or the player's purposefully shut discord off

I don't really need to make the UX worse so you can report the map you're playing on while having discord shut off on the Gaming PC

[static oak]

social sdk is for more then just destkop. on mobile or consoles there can't be a local discord client to connect to

[deep valley]

I know, that sounds like a mobile/console dev problem

[static oak]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

no clue what you're making so i mentioned it

[deep valley]

I appreciate your clarification

well, given all that digging, I'll leave the following suggestions here for the API team:

• clearly link this (that's part of the mobile section, but I imagine it'll apply to games as well) here
• considering the existing userbase of discord, I'd put rich presence without account linking at the very top of your features list, and start the game engine quick start guides with that, given it's by far the best result/effort ratio for devs to get going

[knotty birch]

we'll take a peek, thanks for the feedback

[knotty birch]

This should work for what you're trying to do. It's meant to be 1 lobby <> 1 guild channel. https://docs.discord.com/developers/discord-social-sdk/development-guides/linked-channels

linked channels will look like this in your discord server

[floral stump]

do we know when this will be out of beta and available for everyone?

[knotty birch]

its not in beta, you can prototype with it in its current state and but it is considered a Communication Feature and requires reaching out to us for full production-use. https://docs.discord.com/developers/discord-social-sdk/core-concepts/communication-features

Does Social SDK have x86 libs/dlls for windows?

🚀

[nimble axle]

I'm not talking about 32bit cpus. Microsoft themselves even acknowledge there are benefits and use cases for 32 bit apps over 64 bit ones which is why 32 bit is still supported unlike 16 bit.

Wasn't there an older discord library for doing rich presence that supported 32 bit?

How does this SDK work guys

[dull obsidian]

https://docs.discord.com/developers/discord-social-sdk/overview

[coral kindle]

What is the minimum OS version that the SDK supports on macOS/iOS

[wintry ice]

https://docs.discord.com/developers/discord-social-sdk/core-concepts/platform-compatibility has an overview of all the versions!

[coral kindle]

thx

[coral kindle]

discord supports macos leopard??

[wintry ice]

that's 10.5 and that looks to be the minimum supported version so yeah

[coral kindle]

just surprised

[wintry ice]

oh I read that as a question xD

[coral kindle]

i mean it is but just like huh

wow

also this should be configured not confused?

[coral kindle]

is the callback provided to authorize a one time use or is it stored and used continuously

[steep jungle]

What

[coral kindle]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/social-sdk/classdiscordpp_1_1Client.html#ace94a58e27545a933d79db32b387a468

Is the discordpp::Client::AuthorizationCallback callback stored after being used or is it just used once and then thrown away

[mossy heart]

Anyone know if theres a way to have rich presence for a game without having the user to grant access similar to the legacy SDK or has it completely been changed?

[icy compass]

You want this? https://docs.discord.com/developers/discord-social-sdk/development-guides/setting-rich-presence#rich-presence-without-authentication

[void yarrow]

How does discord handle a message if it’s sent from a game (linked chat)?
-# The user didn’t connect their account with SDK + Discord client is not running

Like, what is the avatar gonna be

[mossy heart]

Thank you!

[spiral crown]

@icy compass sorry for ping but does Discord have document for how to transform text like text or text

[dull obsidian]

guys, anyone using Discord SDK in python? somehow using pypresence? i don't KNOW how that work tbh

[shut jetty]

pypresence is a 3rd party tool (as most discord wrappers are)... you should ask them in their support server found on their github

[sage seal]

thank you buddy.. as of the Discord SDK, i really wish they will make a stable version for Python, that looks better than 3rd party tools and wrappers

even NodeJS have an SDK

[void yarrow]

Is it possible to run sdk in server side, like

Wait lemme make it a thread if someone asks about this

Flash Game Lobby Chat

[shut jetty]

why make a therad not a #1350223314307776592 post?

the latter is more likely to be noticed

I didn’t know that channel existed

[twin pier]

I followed the tutorial on the website but I keep getting Error: UnexpectedClose (4004) after client connect and then immediately disconnects

Does anyone know where the documentation for socialsdkk profile widgets is located?

I already asked first through #dev-chat and they told me to ask here and request help through #1350223314307776592

looking for this? https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/35344672307607-Profile-Widgets-FAQ

[pine slate]

does anyone know where the u can use a sdk using pypresence?

[shut jetty]

Pypresence and the social SDK are 2 completely unrelated things. The social SDK is only C++, unity, or unreal engine binaries that are for integration with games. Not just a rich Presence and IPC wrapper

[pine slate]

Ohh thanks for the help.

[vast gate]

I ned help

[shut jetty]

we cant help if you dont ask...

is your question related to coding or specifically the social sdk?

[vast gate]

I need to develop a bot

[shut jetty]

if your question is related to making a bot, you should either ask in #dev-chat or make a #1478857869960019968 post... this channel is for the social SDK, not bot development

How do we add custom emojis to buttons or send a button request as that "Connect account"?

that doesnt seem to be related to the social sdk so it doesn't belong here, but you can see formatting docs at https://docs.discord.com/developers/reference#message-formatting

[spiral crown]

Thanks

[untold moss]

Hello, how are you?

[fickle knoll]

does the RPC still does invite party? for some reason, it's not showing

or is it only available on social sdk instead of legacy?

[slow merlin]

Heyy just question, i do have Playing and it will not show up in discord RPC whats the new Activity type for it? Language is C#

[woven token]

Doesn't seems to be Social SDK, this channel is about Social SDK after all
Make sure you have party object and unique secret join string for game invites: https://docs.discord.com/developers/discord-social-sdk/development-guides/managing-game-invites

[fickle knoll]

that one was using the legacy game sdk

i switched over to social sdk since i found in the docs that joins are only available for social sdk

[woven token]

Oh I see

[fickle knoll]

but i am experiencing a problem now

the auth doesnt pop up at all

when i was following the setup guide for c++ standalone

it was able to detect discord but it wasnt able to send the auth

?

not sure if that contributed to what im asking about

[woven token]

Does Steam games with Profile Features Limited (776) category flag are explicitly excluded from Discord's games list despite the game is released and everyone can try and play our game/mod, resulting in unable to game identity claim in Developer Portal
If so, can I contact Discord support for assistance for game identity claim for specific case?

[icy compass]

Hey - thanks for your question! This made me update our docs: https://docs.discord.com/developers/platform/claim-your-game - to add this sentence (and a few more details), which should help:

Discord must have an official record of your game. Discord automatically recognizes games that have established a sufficient playerbase and play time among Discord users over an extended period.

So while the game is new, and the player base may be relatively low, it's not got an automatic record from Discord, so there is no path to game claiming at this time.

[fickle knoll]

i have a question, what can cause for the authorization modal to not pop up despite the fact the guide was followed?

it was able to detect my discord, but no authorization modal was shown

[icy compass]

What do your logs say?

[fickle knoll]

the only error it shows is something about the token, which is supposed to be given after authorization and not before?

[icy compass]

you using the debug version of the libary?

it looks like you never auth

Have you gone through https://docs.discord.com/developers/discord-social-sdk/how-to/debug-log ?

[fickle knoll]

both debug and release are in the lib folder, if thats what you mean

[icy compass]

which guide are you using? what sdk version? what code are you even running? 🙂

what engine are you on

are you doing just straight C++?

[fickle knoll]

the c++ standalone guide

yep

and latest sdk

the code im running is straight from the guide itself

[icy compass]

I expect you never call client->Authorize and there is a bug in your code.

or your application id could be wrong

[fickle knoll]

i did call it

ill send the whole code hold on

[icy compass]

no thanks - not downloading a random zip off the internet 🙂

[fickle knoll]

i meant as in the main.cpp bit only within here

not the whole file as a download

[icy compass]

or chuck it in a gist

[fickle knoll]

yea

https://gist.github.com/RainzDev/fa6273346c82e84849d1e49de74e87b0

obviously lots of things are gonna be changed once i figure it out, but yea

[icy compass]

if you put a bunch of cout statements throughout - where do you see it stopping?

is the authorize callback fired?

I'd also look at the debugging doc mentioned above - you may want to switch to using the debug libraries in your CMake file - they will give you debug and verbose level logging, so you can see everything that is happening

[fickle knoll]

authorize callback doesnt get fired, only Initializing Discord SDK...

[fickle knoll]

alright

[icy compass]

Almost like

    while (running) {
        discordpp::RunCallbacks();
        std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::milliseconds(10));
    }

never runs

or as a silly question - how are you running the C++ code?

[fickle knoll]

by building it using cmake and then running the binary file

[icy compass]

you sure you are rebuilding the c++ code and not running an older version?

[fickle knoll]

to be fair, i havent thought of that cause i assumed it would just overwrite the existing files as default

[icy compass]

Try editing the original cout line with something new, and see if it changes

[fickle knoll]

alright

yea it updates the file

updated the cout and it gave me the updated line in the terminal when ran

[fickle knoll]

btw for the logging bit, im assuming it should be changed to verbose?

since it was already logging with info

[icy compass]

Just ran it... and it worked for me.

[fickle knoll]

thats weird

[icy compass]

What Discord client are you running?

[fickle knoll]

vesktop (i understand it's a modified one)

[icy compass]

Yeah - there's your issue most likely

[fickle knoll]

should i be using the original client

for it

gotcha

[icy compass]

I can't help you with a custom client. no idea what they are doing.

[fickle knoll]

ill try out the original client and see how it goes

[icy compass]

I did find a bug from the old version of the docs on the CMakeLists.txt

so that's good - thanks for that 🙂

[fickle knoll]

no worries

[fickle knoll]

im assuming it's about the add_custom_command bit, right?

[icy compass]

that's the one

[fickle knoll]

yea i was gonna mention that one, but completely forgot lol

[icy compass]

there was a bug with our old docs platform that I forgot about

[fickle knoll]

also, it might be the client itself causing the issue yea

[icy compass]

https://github.com/discord/discord-api-docs/pull/8342 fix is incoming for the c++ cmake issue

[fickle knoll]

quick question, can the sdk open authorization via browser or no?

[icy compass]

yeah if the client doesn't work, it'll go to the browser

close the client and give it a shot

[fickle knoll]

ill try that

[fickle knoll]

didnt open a tab or anything

nvm it did lol

100% the client then yea

Thank you for the help

[icy compass]

Yay - glad we got it working! 🙂

[fickle knoll]

Very sorry to bother you again. I have a question about it. Can this theoretically work for android browsers?

Like if you have the linux binary file and you run it through termux for example

[woven token]

Alrighty, thank you for the answer!

[woven token]

The game is not new tho, been released almost 5 years ago, I think we just need more players number so eventually will be automatically added
Probably with huge major game update and out of Early Access it would help in increasing the player base

[icy compass]

https://docs.discord.com/developers/discord-social-sdk/development-guides/account-linking-on-mobile

[dark kite]

do i need to include any liscence if im using the social sdk?

[inland wharf]

When will the documentation for creating the widgets be available?

[shut jetty]

they just said in the stage that theyre actively writing the docs for that

[inland wharf]

I know, maybe they were already finishing the documentation. I know that when they released the Widget Profile experiment there was a vulnerability that allowed you to create your own widget from the SDK.

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1004430779830505592/1495550166407577850/1776542668036.mp4?ex=6a0450e1&is=6a02ff61&hm=eabd89c0d7e480e978bb230d6e1da2f5683aa7f4acac98adac5ac2f3657ba39d&

Here you can see how I have one

[regal tiger]

has anyone gotten UserApplicationProfile to work 0.o ? I keep getting 401 errors

[coral torrent]

[gaunt cosmos]

hi, is it normal when i develop in unity that everytime i press play i need to reauthenticate with discord?

[icy compass]

I'm guessing the Discord client is refreshed? and therefore needs to reconnect?

You might want to consider a local secure store for the access and refresh tokens, so you can reuse those when needing to reconnect.

[gaunt cosmos]

i will look into that

[fickle knoll]

I'm looking through the Get Started guide on the standalone section and I don't see anything related to having the sdk connected to android, am i supposed look through somewhere else?

nvm found it

[coral torrent]

Goodnight

[void yarrow]

About that, can we access to social sdk from a cloud based server?

Discord doesn’t show our games in their database too (it’s not in steam but IGDB).

I was also wondering if activities can have Party, party secret etc with rpc

[icy compass]

not sure I understand the question - can you say more?

[void yarrow]

We are making a game inside Flash Player and to play it, you need to access to an URL

We don’t have a launcher so…

And social SDK is like 200MB+

[void yarrow]

@icy compass was this helpful?

[icy compass]

Not really no 😄 you told me what you are doing... not what the actual problem is.

Is there an error message you are getting? Some kind of blocker? not sure what's going on.

[void yarrow]

I just wanted to know how does the SDK actually working. Do players need to download SDK too (for the client) or just the hoster of the server is enough?

[icy compass]

Have you run through our quickstarts?

[void yarrow]

not really... okay I guess I should

[icy compass]

Swing back around when you've done so and read some docs

[void yarrow]

alright
