Members & roles · Step
Copy a role
Make a new role with another's colour, permissions and settings.
role.copy
In a flow
“When a button is clicked, copy a role.”
/new-team name → Copy a role Team template named {name}.
What it does
Make a new role with another's colour, permissions and settings. 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. Find it under Members & roles in the palette.
When to use it
Use it when the flow acts on a member: make a new role with another's colour, permissions and settings.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
Typical wiring
Sockets: settings you can wire
- Role Role needed
-
The role to copy: its colour, permissions and settings.
What goes there: Type it in the side panel, or wire in a role. e.g. @Verified
If it's empty: Needed. Publish lists it until it's set or wired; the step can't run without it.
