Before you begin
Be an administrator and have emergency.manage. Prepare affected channels and exemptions before an incident.
Step by step
In Emergency mode, select affected spaces and review current permissions.
Preview the lockdown scope and enter its reason and duration.
Confirm after checking staff access and voice options.
Monitor the active state. Use the provided stop action to restore permissions after the incident.
Discord commands
/emergency status checks the state, /emergency start prepares an emergency and /emergency stop requests restoration. The command accepts 5 to 1,440 minutes. The voice option affects new connections according to the displayed scope.
Restore cleanly
The mechanism retains permission data needed for restoration. Manual changes made after lockdown can affect the result; review statuses and errors rather than assuming that stopping restored everything.
