# Enabling Intents

In order for your bot to work with Discord Bot Studio you will need to enable intents. To do so visit the following link: <https://discord.com/developers/applications>.&#x20;

![Visiting the link above will show you any bots you have created](https://1776366025-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-M0L1z_JwGF9x5j-YBBE%2F-MURyip6tvVTtiCihH8T%2F-MURyw8Z4NTG8OJDs4Ks%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=4e8d0860-7e06-4c1b-a152-5e87b1a48b87)

Once there, click on the bot you are using. Next, select the "Bot" tab from the left hand side:

From there, scroll down to the "Privileged Gateway Intents" section, and enable both options:
