## Step 1: Access Accounts via Notifications

Navigate to the **Notifications -> Accounts** under the Settings section. Here, you will see the list of all accounts within your organisation.

Click on the **Connect** button next to the account you wish to link to your Discord account.

If Slack notifications are enabled for that account, you'll see a **Manage** button instead; click on that.

You will be redirected to Discord, where authorisation is needed to access the desired server.&#x20;

Choose the Discord server and channel where you want to receive notifications.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %} <mark style="color:blue;">If the desired Discord Server isn't visible in the drop-down menu, you may not have the required permissions to access it. Please refer to the</mark> [<mark style="color:blue;">Discord: Check Your Permissions</mark>](https://docs.coinshift.xyz/business/getting-started/setup-notifications/discord-check-your-permissions) <mark style="color:blue;">guide and reach out to the server owner or administrator for further clarification on your access rights.</mark>
