Baldio - Discord Bot
How to set up and use Baldio, the Discord bot that connects your Wowutils group to Discord
What is Baldio?
Baldio is the Discord bot that connects your Wowutils group to Discord.
Setup
On Wowutils
Link the Bot
Open Integrations in your group hub and use the invite link in the Discord Bot section to add the bot to your server.
Set Your Timezone
Open Settings in your group hub and set your calendar server timezone, so the bot posts event times in the right zone.
On Discord
Once the bot is in your server, run these commands in Discord to finish setup.
Grant Permissions
The bot needs a couple of permissions in your Discord server to function:
- Send Messages in the channels you want to use the bot in
- Mention Roles if you want to ping roles when posting setups
Missing Permissions
If you get an error that says "Missing Permissions", make sure the bot has the required permissions in the channel you're trying to use it in.
Set Your Server Timezone
- Requirement = ManageGuild permission
/server set-timezone
This command will fetch the timezone of your group from "wowutils.com/viserio-cooldowns". You can find and set the calendar server time in your group settings.
Set Your Server Roles
- Requirement = ManageGuild permission
/server set-roles
This command will set officer and raider roles on the server. Officer roles have access to all bot features, and raider roles are more limited. If this is not set, everyone on the server can run commands.
Commands
/post next-setup
Posts one or all setups from the most recently updated reset.
- Requirement = officer or a raider role (if set)
- If your reset has more than one setup, you'll be prompted to choose a specific setup or post all of them.
- You can mention up to 3 roles when the post is made, to notify your raid team.
- The repost button follows the same requirements as the command here.
/post event
Lets you post a selected event from your group calendar, and see members and their status.
- Requirement = officer or a raider role (if set)
- You can mention up to 3 roles when the post is made, to notify your raid team.
/schedule
Automate recurring posts. This is an early version with basic functionality.

/schedule add-post-next-setup: Schedule a weekly/post next-setuppost, with role mentions./schedule disable: Select and disable a single schedule./schedule get-list: Get an overview of all current active or failed schedules./schedule activate-failed: Reactivate a failed schedule, giving you a chance to fix the error and get it running again.
