Before submitting your question have you checked the check the FAQ or checked for similar issues already?: [yes]

Question: Im just curious about the safety of implementing a discord bot, to account for the safety of the fivem server, can "Hackers" get whitelist and admin on the server through the discord, or have you had any other safety issues regarding this?

Information: FiveM artifact #: [eg. 3200] Using QBCore?: [yes/no] When did you last update QBCore if you are using it?: [eg. yesterday, 1 week ago]

For the most part zdiscord is built safety first, even some features that could be added like adding discord roles from fivem are intentionally not built in by default for this extra security. All of the exports are informative only.

If whitelisting is enabled the only way to get in is by having the role configured in discord which is entirely on discord and your server staff when it comes to security. anything that's actually dangerous are under the "god" permission tier.

As long as everything is fairly stock and configured properly it is fairly secure against "hackers" as far as I'm aware. There have been no complaints over the years about people exploiting zdiscord to get into or deal damage to a server.
