Boost Bot Requirements

Boost Bot requirements: Windows version, license key, Discord bot credentials, server permissions, network expectations, and a pre-install checklist.

Last updated 2026-07-17

Core requirements

Before installing the Vanta Boost Bot, confirm your Windows PC or VPS meets the basics below. These requirements help the bot connect reliably, read configuration files correctly, and avoid setup failures caused by missing permissions or unstable connections.

A supported Windows PC or VPS (Windows 10 or Windows 11).
Stable internet connection for license checks and Discord API traffic.
Access to the Boost Bot download files from your client portal.
A valid license key from your purchase.
Discord Developer Portal access to create bot token, client ID, and client secret.
Permission to invite a bot into the target Discord server.
Ability to edit local config files (license.key and config.json).

Recommended system setup

Item	Recommended
Operating System	Windows 10 or Windows 11
RAM	4 GB or higher
Internet	Stable broadband or VPS uplink
Storage	At least 500 MB free
Archive tool	WinRAR or another tool that can extract the download
Access level	Ability to run the app and edit files in the install folder

Discord application credentials

The Boost Bot connects to Discord through an application you create in the Discord Developer Portal. You will place these values into config.json during setup:

Bot token
Client ID
Client secret

Keep credentials private

Never share your bot token or client secret in tickets, screenshots, or public channels. Rotate credentials immediately if they are exposed.

Developer Portal: https://discord.com/developers/applications

Discord server permissions and IDs

You need enough server permissions to invite the bot and configure logging. The setup guide walks through each config field; prepare these values first:

Requirement	Why it matters
Guild (server) ID	Tells the bot which Discord server to operate in
Allowed user IDs	Restricts who can interact with the bot
Log channel ID	Receives status and delivery logs
Invite / manage-server access	Needed to add the bot and grant permissions

Enable Discord Developer Mode to copy user, server, and channel IDs. Exact permission toggles are documented in the Boost Bot setup guide.

Network and hosting expectations

Outbound HTTPS access to Discord and the license systems used by the bot.
A machine that can stay online during active boost sessions (local PC or VPS).
Firewall or antivirus rules that do not block the Boost Bot executable after you verify the download source.
Do not run untrusted copies of the software—only use files from your purchase portal.

Pre-installation checklist

1
Confirm Windows 10 or 11 with at least 4 GB RAM and 500 MB free storage.
2
Download and extract the Boost Bot files to a folder you can access.
3
Prepare a valid license key from your purchase email or dashboard.
4
Create or locate your Discord application token, client ID, and client secret.
5
Copy the target Guild ID, allowed user IDs, and log channel ID.
6
Confirm you can invite the bot and grant the permissions listed in the setup guide.
7
Keep a stable internet connection active during installation and configuration.

Common requirement errors

Symptom	Likely cause	What to check
License fails to activate	Wrong or incomplete license.key	Paste the full key, save the file, and retry
Bot will not start	Blank config values while features are enabled	Disable unused features or fill every required field
Cannot invite bot	Missing manage-server permission	Ask a server admin to invite the bot
No logs appearing	Incorrect log channel ID	Re-copy the channel ID with Developer Mode enabled
