Link Minecraft to Discord

Run /discord link in-game on United Factions, copy the private code Minecraft gives you, then send only that code in a direct message to the United Factions Discord bot. When it confirms the link, your Minecraft account and Discord account are connected.

Run /discord link in-game on United Factions, copy the private code Minecraft gives you, then send only that code in a direct message to the United Factions Discord bot. When it confirms the link, your Minecraft account and Discord account are connected.

Short version

Start in-game /discord link

The link code is generated from the Minecraft account you are currently playing on.

Code privacy DM only

Send the code to the bot in a private Discord message. Do not post it in public chat.

Result Linked role

The DiscordSRV link adds the Linked Discord role and connects your Discord user to your Minecraft UUID.

Login gate Not required

Linking is useful for community features, but the current server config does not require a linked account before joining.

How it works in-game

  1. Join United Factions in Minecraft with the IGN you want connected to Discord.
  2. Type /discord link in the Minecraft chat.
  3. Copy the link code shown in-game. Treat it like a temporary private code.
  4. Open the United Factions Discord and send a direct message to the server bot containing only that code.
  5. Wait for the confirmation message. After that, your Minecraft IGN and Discord account are linked.
Server commands

Commands you can actually use

What to do

  1. 01

    Link from inside the Minecraft server. That proves the code belongs to the IGN and UUID you are currently using.

  2. 02

    Keep the code private. A link code is not your password, but it should still only be sent to the bot.

  3. 03

    Use the official United Factions Discord. A random bot or random server cannot safely complete the link for you.

  4. 04

    If Minecraft says you are already linked, use /discord unlink only when you really want to replace the connected Discord account.

Why linking matters

United Factions uses Discord for community support, recruitment, quick questions and server announcements. Linking your IGN makes it easier to match the player in-game with the same person in Discord, especially when staff need to help with account, faction or support questions.

What the link does not do

It does not change your Minecraft username, it does not ask for your Microsoft or Minecraft password, and it does not give anyone access to your account. The server links your Minecraft UUID to your Discord user through a short verification code.

Common problems

If the bot does not answer, make sure you are in the official United Factions Discord and that you can send the bot a direct message. If the code fails, generate a fresh one in-game and send the new code exactly as shown.

Beginner FAQ

Questions new players ask

Do I need to share my Minecraft password?

No. Never share your Microsoft, Minecraft or Discord password. Linking only uses the short code generated by /discord link.

Does linking change my IGN?

No. It connects your current Minecraft account to your Discord account; it does not rename your Minecraft account.

Can I link more than one Discord account?

Normally one Minecraft account should be linked to one Discord account. If you linked the wrong one, use /discord unlink if available or ask staff for help.

Is linking required to join the Minecraft server?

The current configuration does not require a linked Discord account before joining, but linking is recommended for community features and support.

Where do I ask for help?

Ask in the official United Factions Discord support channels and include your Minecraft IGN so staff can check the link safely.

Where this comes from

This guide is based on the live United Factions DiscordSRV linking configuration: /discord link generates a code, account linking uses Discord direct messages, and linked players receive the Linked role.
