The Discord Raw API MCP Server provides raw access to Discord's API, allowing you to:
Execute REST API Calls: Send GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE requests to Discord API endpoints
Use Slash Command Syntax: Interact with the API using simplified slash command-style syntax (e.g., /role create)
Manage Roles: Create, modify, assign, and delete roles
Operate Channels: Create, move, and manage various channel types
Handle Messages: Send and interact with message content
Manage Servers: Retrieve and manage guild information, members, and permissions
Include JSON Payloads: Provide optional data for complex requests
Access Full API: Use the complete range of Discord API endpoints for comprehensive server management
Provides raw Discord API access through a flexible tool, supporting both REST API calls and slash command syntax, allowing users to interact with Discord servers, create roles, send messages, and access server information.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Discord Raw API MCP Server create a new role called 'Moderator' with blue color in my server"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
This MCP server provides raw Discord API access through a single flexible tool. It supports both REST API calls and slash command syntax.

"Here's how to effectively use the Discord raw API tool: The tool is called discord_api and takes three parameters:
method: HTTP method ("GET", "POST", "PUT", "PATCH", "DELETE")
endpoint: Discord API endpoint (e.g., "guilds/{guild.id}/roles")
payload: Optional JSON object for the request body Key examples I've used:
Creating roles:
discord_api
method: POST
endpoint: guilds/{server_id}/roles
payload: {
"name": "Role Name",
"color": 3447003, // Blue color in decimal
"mentionable": true
}Creating categories and channels:
// Category
discord_api
method: POST
endpoint: guilds/{server_id}/channels
payload: {
"name": "Category Name",
"type": 4 // 4 = category
}
// Text channel in category
discord_api
method: POST
endpoint: guilds/{server_id}/channels
payload: {
"name": "channel-name",
"type": 0, // 0 = text channel
"parent_id": "category_id",
"topic": "Channel description"
}Moving channels to categories:
discord_api
method: PATCH
endpoint: channels/{channel_id}
payload: {
"parent_id": "category_id"
}Sending messages:
discord_api
method: POST
endpoint: channels/{channel_id}/messages
payload: {
"content": "Message text with emojis \ud83d\ude04"
}Assigning roles:
discord_api
method: PUT
endpoint: guilds/{server_id}/members/{user_id}/roles/{role_id}
payload: {}The tool supports the full Discord API, so you can reference the Discord API documentation for more endpoints and features. The responses include IDs and other metadata you can use for subsequent requests. Pro tips:
Save IDs returned from creation requests to use in follow-up requests
Unicode emojis can be included directly in message content ? Tell the model to use discord emoji like :champagne_glass: - Messages with unicode emoji hangs Claude Desktop?
Channel types: 0 = text, 2 = voice, 4 = category, 13 = stage
Role colors are in decimal format (not hex)
Most modification endpoints use PATCH method
Empty payloads should be {} not null"
