- Copy the `Client ID` on the page and replace the `12312123` part of the **`"ClientId"`** line with it.
- **Important: Bot ID and Client ID** will be the same in **newer bot accounts** due to recent changes by Discord.
- If that's the case, **copy the same client ID** to **`"BotId"`**
```
It should look like:
```
```json
"ClientId": 179372110000358912,
"BotId": 179372110000358912,
```
- Go to your Discord server and attempt to mention yourself, but put a backslash at the start like shown below:
*(to make it slightly easier, add the backslash after you type the mention out)*
- So the message `\@fearnlj01#3535` will appear as `<@145521851676884992>` after you send the message.
- The message will appear as a mention if done correctly, copy the numbers from the message **`145521851676884992`** and replace the ID (By default, the ID is `105635576866156544`) on the `OwnerIds` section with your user ID shown earlier.
- Save `credentials.json`
- If done correctly, you are now the bot owner. You can add multiple owners by seperating each owner ID with a comma within the square brackets.
```
For single owner it should look like:
```
```json
"OwnerIds": [
105635576866156544
],
```
```
For multiple owners it should look like:
```
```json
"OwnerIds": [
105635123466156544,
105635123566156544,
105635123666156544
],
```

## Setting up your API keys
This part is completely optional, **However it is necessary for music and few other features to work properly**
- **GoogleAPIKey**
- Required for Youtube Song Search, Playlist queuing, URL Shortener and lot more.
- Follow these steps on how to setup Google API keys:
- Go to [Google Console][Google Console] and log in.
- Create a new project (name does not matter).
- Once the project is created, go into **`Library`**
- Under the **`Other Popular APIs`** section, enable `URL Shortener API` and `Custom Search API`
- Under the **`YouTube APIs`** section, enable `YouTube Data API`
- Under the **`Google Maps APIs`** section, enable `Google Maps Geocoding API` and `Google Maps Time Zone API`
- On the left tab, access **`Credentials`**,
- Click `Create Credentials` button,
- Click on `API Key`
- A new window will appear with your `Google API key`
*NOTE: You don't really need to click on `RESTRICT KEY`, just click on `CLOSE` when you are done.*
- Copy the key.
- Open up **`credentials.json`** and look for **`"GoogleAPIKey"`**, paste your API key inbetween the quotation marks.
- Required for Urban Disctionary, Hashtag search, and Hearthstone cards.
- You need to create an account on their [api marketplace](https://market.mashape.com/), after that go to `market.mashape.com/YOURNAMEHERE/applications/default-application` and press **Get the keys** in the top right corner.
- For example, if you want to shard your NadekoBot which you installed using windows installer, you would want to set it to something like this: `C:\Program Files\NadekoBot\system\NadekoBot.exe`
- Required if you're sharding your bot on windows using .exe, or in a custom way.
- This internally defaults to `run -c Release -- {0} {1} {2}` which will be enough to run linux and other 'from source' setups
- {0} will be replaced by the `shard ID` of the shard being ran, {1} by the shard 0's process id, and {2} by the port shard communication is happening on
- If shard0 (main window) is closed, all other shards will close too
- For example, if you want to shard your NadekoBot which you installed using windows installer, you would want to set it to `{0} {1} {2}`
- **ShardRunPort**
- Bot uses a random UDP port in [5000, 6000) range for communication between shards
