For the role synchronisation to work properly, Bind needs to identify your users. Below are the identification methods we support to connect your products to your community.

Bind Identifier Types

Email

To access the email of a Discord user, the Bind bot lets members verify their account; by doing this, Bind receives basic information about the user, such as their email.

“Use another email” option

After verifying with Bind, the user can add connect additional emails that will identify them across the workspace.

External ID

You may already have a way of identifying the user in your product or community. This may be a database set up for your product offering or additional metadata that you have added in an existing data source. Bind allows you to use this existing dataset to create a unified user identity.
