Getting started

Sign in, create a panel for your Discord server, and find your way around.

Last updated: October 29, 2026

1. Sign in

Open grandevc.xyz/dashboard and press Sign in with Discord. Grande asks to identify you and to see which servers you are in, so it can show you the ones you can set up. It never posts anything for you.

2. Create a panel

A panel is Grande’s home for one Discord server. Everything for that server, such as members, roles, sessions and ER:LC, lives in its panel.

1. On your dashboard press Create.
2. Press Select a server and choose the Discord server. Only servers where you have Manage Server are listed. Use the refresh button if a server is missing.
3. Give the panel a name (2 to 40 characters). It is filled in with the server’s name to start with.
4. Press Create panel. Grande opens the new panel’s settings.

A server can only have one panel. If you see That server already has a panel, ask the owner of that panel for its Community ID instead.

Invite Grande to your server

Open General and look at the Discord server card. If Grande is not in the server yet, press Invite Grande. Commands, logging and verification only work once Grande is in the server.

3. Join a panel that already exists

1. On your dashboard press Join.
2. Enter the Community ID a server owner gave you and press the join button.

If the panel lets people in automatically, you are added straight away. If it uses staff approval you will see Request sent, and you can open the panel once a staff member accepts you (see Requests).

4. Link your Roblox account

Your dashboard may show Next step: Link your Roblox account. Link it so your Roblox username and avatar show up across Grande, and so you can verify in servers that use Grande’s verification. You can also link it or refresh your profile any time from the Account page in the profile menu.

5. Your servers

My Servers lists every panel you own or have joined. Press Open to go to a panel’s settings, or Moderator panel if you have that permission. On panels you do not own, the three dots menu lets you Leave the panel.

Inside a panel, the picture and name at the top of the left menu open a list of your other panels, so you can switch without going back to the dashboard. Grande keeps you on the same page when you switch.

6. What to do next

• Set up the basics in General, then link your server’s key in ER:LC Integration.
• Create roles and give them to your staff in Members.
• Run sessions and set up verification.
• Staff can open the Moderator Panel to watch the server live.

7. If something does not work

• My server is not in the list: you need the Manage Server permission in that Discord server. Press the refresh button after you get it.
• Grande needs permission to see your servers: press Allow access and sign in with Discord again.
• I am sent to a page that says I have no access: you are not in that panel (or were removed). Join it with its Community ID.
