What it does
Start a DM with the member. Steps in "In their DMs" happen there. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 1 value later steps can use. Steps wired from "In their DMs" run inside the place it makes, then the flow carries on. Find it under Members & roles in the palette.
When to use it
Use it when the flow acts on a member: start a DM with the member. Steps in "In their DMs" happen there.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
Typical wiring
Sockets: settings you can wire

-
Leave unwired for the member who started the flow, or wire one in, like Member from Find member.
What goes there: Type it in the side panel, or wire in a member. e.g. @Alex
If it's empty: Optional. Left empty and unwired, the step runs without it.
