How to Find Your Discord User ID?
What is Discord user?
- Discord ID is an 18-digit number that’s tied to your account.
- To find your Discord ID, you’ll need to turn on Discord’s “Developer Mode” first.
Discord allows you to customize your account in many different ways. For example, you can change your username or nickname to anything you like – it doesn’t even have to be unique.
However, the one thing that must be unique in your account is your Discord ID. Each Discord user has a separate Discord ID, which is an 18-digit number associated with your account. And the user is not the only person with a Discord ID. Each message and each server also has a unique ID.
You rarely need to know your Discord ID. But in case the time comes, it is a good skill to learn. Here’s how to find your Discord ID (or anyone else’s ID) using desktop applications, websites, and mobile applications.

How to use a Discord ID ?
Discord IDs cannot be used too much. They are mainly a way for the Discord application itself to distinguish between users, messages and servers.
If you are designing a Discord bot or integration, you can use Discord IDs to specify which users are allowed to use the bot, or which servers it is allowed to work on.
When interacting with Discord’s customer support team, they may occasionally ask you for a Discord ID or someone else’s ID to help resolve a problem.
Your Discord ID is public information, so do not worry if someone knows it. There is no malicious intent for them to use it.
