Troubleshooting

I get a "code grant" error when connecting

This usually means the Discord authorization expired before the connection completed. Try again: go to Settings → Integrations → Discord, remove the existing connection, and reconnect. Make sure you complete the authorization flow in Discord within a few minutes.

My form submissions aren't appearing in Discord

Check these common causes:

Make sure the Discord bot has permission to send messages in the target channel. Go to your Discord server → Server Settings → Integrations and verify the Tally bot's channel permissions.

Verify you selected the correct channel during setup. Go to Settings → Integrations → Discord to confirm.

If you recently changed your Discord server's channel structure, reconnect the integration.

Messages appear but are missing some answers

The Discord notification includes all form fields by default. If you're using conditional logic and a respondent skips certain questions, those fields won't appear in the Discord message. This is expected behavior.

Why should you use Tally as a Form Builder for Discord?

People use the Discord integration from Tally because it helps them bring structure to a space that moves fast. Discord is great for conversation, but not great for collecting information in a clean or reliable way. When you ask for feedback, signups or reports inside a channel, the answers spread out across threads and DMs and things get lost quickly.

With the integration, people use a Tally form to collect information in a clear, guided way. Every submission then gets posted directly into a selected Discord channel so moderators and team members see it right away. Nothing gets buried, everything stays organized and the team can act faster.

Another reason people use it is to bring outside data into the community. You can publish a Tally form on your website or anywhere else and still have every submission show up instantly in Discord. It keeps the community updated on applications, bug reports, event signups or feedback without making everyone switch platforms.
