What is DiscordBot?

DiscordBot is the web crawler operated by Discord, a popular communication platform for communities, gamers, and organizations. When a user shares a link in a Discord channel or direct message, DiscordBot visits the linked web page to retrieve metadata such as the page title, description, and images. This information is then used to generate a rich link preview within the Discord interface, enhancing user experience by providing context about the shared link. DiscordBot identifies itself with the user agent 'discordbot' or similar strings in HTTP requests. Website administrators can detect and manage DiscordBot's access through standard robots.txt rules or by inspecting user agent strings. DiscordBot's activity is generally limited to fetching metadata and does not perform deep crawling or indexing of website content.
