Discord Invite Link Management: Create, Track, and Expire Links

Most servers use one invite link for everything. Managing multiple tracked links helps you understand where members come from.

Creating an Invite Link

  1. Click the Invite People icon next to your server name
  2. Click Edit Invite Link for advanced settings:
- Expiry: Never, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 6 hours, 12 hours, 1 day, 7 days - Max Uses: No limit, 1, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 - Grant temporary membership: Members are removed if they don't get a role within 24 hours
  1. Copy the link

Tracking Links by Source

Create separate invite links for different promotion channels:

  • Link 1: For your Discords.ai listing
  • Link 2: For Reddit posts
  • Link 3: For your TikTok bio
  • Link 4: For Twitter/X bio
  • Link 5: For partner server exchanges

In Server Settings โ†’ Invites, you can see how many uses each link has.

The Vanity URL

With Community Mode + 100 members:

  1. Server Settings โ†’ Vanity URL
  2. Choose a short, memorable keyword
  3. Your URL becomes: discord.gg/yourkeyword

Use this as your primary public link โ€” it's clean, memorable, and brandable.

Auditing Existing Invite Links

See and manage all active links:

  1. Server Settings โ†’ Invites
  2. View all links, who created them, uses, and expiry
  3. Delete links that are no longer needed (expired partnerships, old promotions)

Temporary Membership Links

For events or partner server promotions:

  • Create a link with 24-hour or 7-day expiry
  • Set max uses to a reasonable number
  • Share specifically for that event
  • Members from that link can be tracked separately

Security Note

  • Rotate your main invite link if it gets shared in spam communities
  • Never share invite links in unsolicited DMs โ€” it violates Discord ToS
  • Delete compromised invite links immediately from Server Settings โ†’ Invites
