Modern Community Integration

Manually whitelisting players via SteamID is a thing of the past. Modern FiveM servers utilize Discord as their primary database for permissions. This ensures that if a player is given a “Police” role in Discord, they automatically receive those powers in-game, and if they leave your Discord, they are instantly removed from the whitelist.

1. Core Prerequisites

To bridge FiveM and Discord, you need two essential resources:
  1. Badger-Discord-API: The bridge that fetches player roles.
  2. DiscordAcePerms: The script that converts those roles into FiveM “Ace” permissions.

​
2. Creating the Bot

  1. Visit the Discord Developer Portal.
  2. Create a New Application and navigate to the Bot tab.
  3. Enable Server Members Intent (Critical for role fetching).
  4. Copy the Token and paste it into your server.cfg: 
    set DiscordBotToken "YOUR_TOKEN_HERE"
set GuildID "YOUR_DISCORD_SERVER_ID"

​
3. Mapping Roles to Ranks

Inside the config.lua of your permission script, you must link your Discord Role IDs (found by right-clicking a role in Discord) to FiveM groups: 
roleList = {
    ['123456789012345'] = "group.admin",       # Founder Role
    ['987654321098765'] = "group.whitelisted", # Community Member Role
}

​
Automated Moderation

By using Discord-based whitelisting, you can automate your server flow. Set up an “Onboarding” channel in Discord where users must read rules to get a role; once they have that role, the FiveM server will automatically allow them to connect without any further manual intervention.
