Frequently Asked Questions

DiscordCloner is a free, browser-based tool that duplicates Discord server structures. It copies roles (with permissions, colors, hierarchy), channels (text, voice, stage, categories with permission overwrites), emojis, stickers, webhooks, AutoMod rules, server banner, description, and general settings — all from a source server into a destination server you own.

Yes — completely free. There are no subscriptions, no premium tiers, and no hidden fees. All core cloning features are available to everyone. If you find it useful, consider donating to support development.

No installation required. DiscordCloner runs entirely in your web browser. Just visit the site, enter your credentials, and click Start. It works on Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, and any modern browser.

Source server: You need to be a member with view access to the channels and roles you want to clone.

Destination server: You must be the owner or have Administrator permission. The tool will create roles, channels, emojis, and modify server settings on your behalf.

Absolutely not. Your token is never sent to our servers, never saved to a database, and never logged anywhere. It lives only in your browser's memory for the duration of your session. All API calls go directly from your browser to Discord's servers (discord.com/api/v10). You can verify this by checking the network tab in your browser's developer tools.

1. Open Discord in your web browser (not the app)
2. Press Ctrl + Shift + I (or F12) to open Developer Tools
3. Go to the Network tab
4. Send any message or perform any action in Discord
5. Click any request, then find the Authorization header in the request headers
6. That value is your token

⚠️ Never share your token with anyone you don't trust — it grants full access to your account.

Common mistakes:
✅ Correct: MTk4MjA1NzA...
❌ Wrong: "MTk4MjA1NzA..." (no quotes)
❌ Wrong: Bot MTk4MjA1NzA... (no "Bot" prefix — that's for bot tokens)

Also ensure your token hasn't expired. Logging out of Discord invalidates all active tokens. If you recently logged out or changed your password, generate a fresh token.

The tool itself is safe — your token stays in your browser. However, using user tokens for automation is against Discord's Terms of Service. You use this tool at your own risk. If you're concerned, consider using an alt account or a bot token with the appropriate permissions.

Yes. The tool is designed to handle large servers efficiently. Cloning time depends on the number of roles, channels, and emojis. A server with 50 roles, 100 channels, and 100 emojis might take 5–15 minutes due to Discord's rate limits. The tool handles rate limiting automatically with up to 5 retries per request.

No. Discord's API does not allow reading message history for automation at scale. DiscordCloner copies the structure of the server — channels, roles, permissions, emojis, webhooks, etc. — but not any messages or content inside channels.

When "Server Settings" is checked, the tool copies:
• Verification level (None / Low / Medium / High / Highest)
• Default message notification setting
• Explicit content filter
• AFK timeout
• Preferred locale
• Server name and icon
• Server banner (if "Server Banner" is also checked)
• Server description (if "Description" is also checked)

The cleanup options delete existing content from the destination server before cloning begins. This ensures a clean copy without mixing old and new content. You can choose to delete channels, roles, emojis, and webhooks independently. If you're cloning into an empty server, you can safely leave these checked.

Yes. Click the red Stop Process button at any time. The current action will complete and then cloning will halt. The destination server will be in a partial state — you'll need to clean it up manually or run the tool again.

Discord servers have emoji slot limits based on boost tier:
• No boosts: 50 standard + 50 animated slots
• Tier 1: 100 + 100
• Tier 2: 150 + 150
• Tier 3: 250 + 250

When the limit is reached, the tool will log a warning and skip remaining emojis. The log shows exactly how many were cloned vs. skipped.

Check in this order:
1. Token — is it valid, fresh, and pasted without quotes?
2. Source Server ID — are you a member? Enable Developer Mode in Discord → right-click server → Copy Server ID
3. Destination Server ID — do you have Administrator permission on this server?
4. Internet connection — the tool makes live API calls; check your connection
5. Check the Operations Log for the specific error message

This is normal. Discord enforces rate limits on API calls. The tool automatically waits and retries when rate-limited. For a large server with many channels and emojis, this is expected to take several minutes. Do not close the browser tab during cloning.

If you don't have read access to certain channels in the source server, they won't appear in the API response. Ensure you're an admin or have view permissions on all channels you want to clone. The log will also show any channels that failed to create.

Sticker cloning requires the destination server to be boosted to Tier 1 or higher (Discord limits sticker slots by boost tier). Lottie-format stickers are not supported by Discord's API for third-party creation and will be skipped. Only PNG/APNG stickers can be cloned.

Using automation tools on user accounts is generally against Discord's ToS. You should only use this tool on servers you own or explicitly manage, and you accept full responsibility for any consequences. We recommend using it with caution and only for legitimate purposes like server backups or test environments.

There is always a risk when using automation tools on a user account. Discord may flag unusual API activity. To reduce risk: only clone servers you own, don't run the tool too frequently, and consider using a dedicated account. The developers are not responsible for any account actions by Discord.
