Question 1

What information can I see from a Discord invite link?

Accepted Answer

Checking an invite reveals the server name, ID, icon, approximate member count, online count, the channel the invite leads to, and any features (VERIFIED, PARTNERED, etc). If the inviter set one, you'll also see the expiry time and vanity URL.

Question 2

Why does an invite return 'not found'?

Accepted Answer

Invites expire after a duration set by the creator, or can be manually revoked. The server itself may also have been deleted. Once expired or deleted, the invite code returns a 404.

Question 3

Do I need to join the server to check an invite?

Accepted Answer

No. This tool queries Discord's public invite endpoint, which returns metadata without requiring you to join or even have a Discord account.

Question 4

What are Discord server features like VERIFIED or PARTNERED?

Accepted Answer

Server features are properties granted by Discord to qualifying servers. VERIFIED means Discord confirmed the server's legitimacy. PARTNERED means it's in Discord's Partner Program. There are many other features for community servers, monetization, and more.

Question 5

What is a Discord vanity URL?

Accepted Answer

A vanity URL is a custom short invite link like discord.gg/discord. It requires the VANITY_URL server feature, which is available to partnered and verified servers.
