FiveM Discord Integration: Linking Roles to In-Game Ranks and Whitelisting

Discord is where your FiveM community lives between sessions. Integrating it with your server means admin actions, whitelist applications, and rank management all flow through one platform your players already use. Here is the complete integration guide.

Discord Whitelist System

Most serious RP servers are whitelisted — players must apply and be approved before joining. The flow:

1. Player submits application in Discord form or channel
2. Admin reviews and adds Discord role (e.g. Whitelisted)
3. Players with the Discord role can join the server

Implementation with the Discord-Whitelisting FiveM resource:

-- resource: discord_whitelist
-- server.cfg:
set discord_bot_token "your_bot_token"
set discord_guild_id "your_guild_id"
set discord_required_role "Whitelisted"

On connection attempt, the resource checks the player's linked Discord account for the required role. No role = denied entry.

Linking Discord to In-Game Identity

The DiscordLink resource creates a persistent identifier mapping Discord ID to FiveM licence:

# server.cfg
set discord_token "your_bot_token"
set discord_guildid "your_guild_id"

Once linked, other resources can query a player's Discord roles server-side, enabling:

• Auto-grant of job start if player has the job's Discord application role
• Automatic ban if Discord membership is lost (left server or banned)
• Job application workflow entirely in Discord, reflected in-game automatically

Job Application Automation

With Discord integration:

1. Player applies for LSPD via Discord (fills out form in application channel)
2. Admin approves → manual role assignment OR bot auto-approves after conditions met
3. Discord bot sends RCON command to grant job in-game
4. Player next login: job is automatically assigned via role check

This workflow eliminates the admin workload of manually granting jobs per player.

Log Channel Integration

Pipe in-game logs to Discord channels:

• Admin logs — All admin commands are posted to a private Discord channel
• Session logs — Player joins/disconnects with playtime
• Death logs — All player deaths with cause and suspects
• Economy logs — Large money transactions flagged automatically

The visibility of these logs both deters admin abuse and makes moderation decisions reviewable by the full staff team.
