Frequently asked questions
Answers to the questions we get the most. Can't find yours? Support answers on Discord.
Getting started
Do I need to change my code?
No. Upload your project as is: we read your .env, package.json or requirements.txt, find your entry file and install your dependencies.
Which languages are supported?
Node.js 20, 22 and 24 and Bun (discord.js, Sapphire, TypeScript…), Python 3.11, 3.12 and 3.13 (discord.py, Pycord, nextcord…) and Java 21 (JDA, with Maven or Gradle).
How do I upload my bot?
Three ways: a .zip of your project (without node_modules), a GitHub repository (automatic deploy on every push), or a ready-made template.
Where do I put my token?
In your .env file as usual, or in the panel's Variables tab (encrypted). The panel checks that it is valid and tells you which intents to enable.
How it works
What happens if my bot crashes?
It restarts on its own and you get a direct message with the cause. If it keeps crashing, it is paused to protect your token until you fix it.
Is my token safe?
The variables you save are encrypted and can never be displayed again, and each bot runs isolated from the others.
Is my data (SQLite, JSON…) kept?
Yes: files created by your bot survive restarts and new uploads of your code. You can also create a PostgreSQL, MySQL or Redis database in 1 click.
Can my bot have a website or web panel?
Yes: set the port in Settings, your bot gets a PORT variable and an HTTPS address such as your-bot.invokara.fr, or your own domain.
Can I manage my bot from Discord?
Yes, with the Invokara bot: /bots, /status, /start, /stop, /restart and /logs, in DMs or on any server.
Can I share my bot with someone?
Yes: Sharing tab, with a Read, Console or Files role. Settings, subscription and deletion stay yours.
Plans and billing
How many bots can I host?
1 plan = 1 bot. For a second bot, take a second plan, no commitment.
Is there a free trial?
Yes, 7 days on the monthly Starter plan, once per account. Standard and Pro are paid from day one.
Can I pay yearly?
Yes: 3 months, 6 months or 1 year with a discount, when choosing your plan.
What if my payment fails?
You get a direct message and your bot stays online for 7 days while you update your card. Without payment it is stopped; its files are kept for 30 days.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes, no commitment: cancel from the bot page or "My subscriptions", and your bot stays online until the end of the paid period.
