Invite filter

The invite filter checks messages using the saved settings and can apply your chosen sanctions.

Configure and verify

Sign in, select the server and open Protection and select Edit beside Invite protection. April needs Kick Members and Ban Members for protection processing, along with permissions for the chosen action. Enable the filter, set its options, review global and filter role/channel permissions, choose Delete and/or Warn, then save. See Protection overview for setup and recovery.

The filter recognizes certain Discord invite URL forms, excludes current server invite codes obtained from Discord and accepts whitelist entries as invite codes. The default whitelist is empty. For example, add a partner’s code, not a domain, then verify it in an authorized channel. Invite lookup depends on Discord access and cached data; unrecognized URL forms are not guaranteed to match.

The local edit form shows settings before saving; the filter was disabled.

In an authorized test channel, try a harmless example on each side of the boundary and inspect the protection log and actual Discord outcome. Saved settings do not prove delivery or deletion. If the filter does not match, check its enabled state, permissions, exclusions and earlier matching filters. For a false positive, disable or adjust the rule and restore content manually if appropriate. Review automated actions before enabling escalation and messages before relying on warnings.
