How to find your Discord ID‍

In this article, you'll learn how to find Discord IDs - User ID, Server ID, Channel ID, and Message ID - by enabling the Developer Mode on Discord.

Discord is a text and voice chat application used by gamers across the globe. It can do a lot more than just send a plain text or a voice message, and it offers several features that are essential for gaming - like custom servers, dedicated voice channels, and a host of personalisation options.

One of Discord's unique features is that it allows multiple users to have the same username - albeit, differentiated by a 4-digit numerical code attached to the end of each username. For example, users with a similar username - like RemoteTools - can be differentiated by a unique signifier - such as RemoteTools#0041 and RemoteTools#0658.

Your Discord User ID, however, is a numerical string that is unique to you. It is used by Discord to create logs of your activities for future reference and processing. Similarly, Discord also has unique IDs for messages, channels, and servers.

However, looking up one's own Discord user ID can be a bit tricky, because it is hidden behind Discord's developer settings. So, if you're wondering how to find Discord ID, you've come to the right place. This article will give you a step-by-step guide on how to do so.
