# Bot Overview

> Use the Dock Discord bot for verification, welcome messages, user info, and server configuration.

## Recommended setup order

    Add Dock to the Discord server and place its role above roles it needs to manage.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Run /config">
    Open the server configuration panel from Discord.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure permissions">
    Set management and admin roles so trusted staff can use the config panel without requiring Discord Administrator.

  <Step title="Enable modules">
    Turn on Verification, Welcome, or Group Bindings depending on the server's needs.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Send messages">
    Use the config panel to post verification and welcome messages to the right channels.

</Steps>

<Note>
  `/config` is ephemeral, so the setup panel is only visible to the staff member using it.
