Prepare a redacted DiscordSRV debug report for a bridge fault

Applies to: DiscordSRV; match the linked maintainer documentation to your installed platform and release.
Documentation checked .

A useful bridge report explains one failed operation and includes the corresponding evidence. Uploading every file immediately can expose more information than necessary and makes the actual failing route harder to locate.

Prepare the test

Use a private test channel and two test identities before changing the public bridge. Keep bot tokens, linking codes and staff console output out of screenshots and public support messages.

Make the change

  1. Reproduce one harmless failing message and record the timestamp, direction and channel role involved. Note the DiscordSRV, Minecraft and chat-plugin versions and whether the failure affects all users or one permission group.
  2. Inspect the console around that timestamp and the relevant mapping locally. Remove tokens, webhook URLs, linking codes, player addresses and private message text from anything you intend to paste into a support ticket.
  3. If maintainers request the documented debugger upload command, understand that it sends diagnostic material outside the server. Review the tool’s current output and sharing behaviour before publishing the resulting link.
  4. Attach a small reproduction description, the sanitised mapping and the difference between expected and actual delivery. Tell support about recent token, intent, role or channel changes so they can avoid repeating irrelevant setup advice.

Check the result

A reviewer should be able to identify which direction failed and compare it with the exact integration state. Keep the report private when it contains service-specific identifiers that do not belong in a public issue.

If the test fails

If an upload includes a credential, rotate that credential through its owner’s official control and remove the shared copy. A deleted report link is not proof that a bot token or webhook remained confidential.

Provide text logs where possible so errors can be searched. A panel console screenshot is useful for context but should not replace the small redacted error sequence and version information.
