Choose where Helios reads supported reward messages for your Discord server. The same channel can receive fulfilled Helios Store purchase notices. This setting is shared across every connected game server in the Discord community; opening one Rust server's dashboard does not make it server-specific.

Set the channel

  1. Create a private channel, such as #store-rewards.
  2. Allow Helios to View Channel, Send Messages, and Embed Links. Restrict posting to trusted staff and your intended integration: valid reward messages can grant rewards.
  3. Open a connected server in the dashboard and choose Overview.
  4. Under Shared Helios systems → Shared setup and admin tools, find Reward Parse Channel and click Configure.
  5. Choose the Discord channel, then click Save Setting. Cancel closes the dialog without changing the destination.

The screenshot shows the existing Admin / commands testing destination. For a real store, choose your restricted reward channel. Save Setting saves this dialog directly; the separate Shared Helios systems save button is not needed for this channel setting. Choosing a different channel replaces the community's current reward-parse destination.

Or use Discord:

/set reward-channel channel:#store-rewards

For Tip4Serv's Discord-based setup, continue with Tip4Serv. Selecting a channel alone does not configure a store or its product rewards.

The built-in Helios Store has a separate setup flow. This channel can also receive store purchase notices.

Check the setup

Reopen Configure and confirm the selected channel after saving. If a supported reward message is ignored, check that it was posted in this exact channel, the integration is configured, its message matches the documented reward format, and the player reference is valid. An ordinary chat message does not test reward delivery.

For Helios Store, a purchase notice follows successful fulfillment; merely selecting this channel does not complete a purchase or configure product delivery. Use your integration's documented test flow and check the bot's result before sending another reward message, so a retry does not grant an unintended second reward.
