Does Teachable have a native Discord integration?

Check Teachable's help center for the current answer; this guide does not rely on one. The invite-link and Zapier/webhook patterns work either way.

How do I stop non-students joining through a shared invite?

Gate the course channels behind a Student role rather than relying on the invite, and only grant that role after verifying the enrollment email or through an account-linking bot.

Can students lose Discord access when they refund?

Only if you set it up: a removal automation, a periodic audit against your Teachable student list, or a membership platform that removes the role when payment ends.

Teachable Discord integration: how to give students access

Updated November 12, 2026 · Integrations

First check Teachable's help center for a current Discord option, since integrations change; whatever it says, the patterns that reliably work are a Discord invite link inside the course plus a Student role, or an enrollment trigger (Zapier or webhook) that notifies Discord and hands students to a role bot. Automatic role assignment always needs the student's Discord account linked, because Teachable only knows their email.

How Teachable students can get Discord access
Method	Where it lives	Verifies the student?	Removes access on refund?
Invite link in a course lecture	First lecture or welcome module	Only course viewers see it	No
Invite link in the enrollment email	Teachable email / your email tool	Partly (link can be shared)	No
Zapier: enrollment -> Discord message	Zapier	Alerts you, no role	No
Zapier: enrollment -> add role (with Discord ID)	Zapier + a form for the ID	Yes	Only if you build a removal Zap
Webhook + custom bot with Connect Discord	Your own small app	Yes	Yes, if coded
Membership/paywall platform	Whop, LaunchPass or similar	Yes	Yes, tied to payment

Step 1: check Teachable's own options

Search support.teachable.com for Discord, Zapier and webhooks. Teachable's available integrations and which plans include them change over time, so build on what the help center says today rather than on an old blog post.

Step 2: the reliable baseline (invite link in the course)

Create a Student role and a private Students category (deny View Channel for @everyone, allow for Student).
Put a non-expiring invite in the first lecture, so only enrolled students who open the course see it.
Tell students exactly what to do after joining: pick a role in Onboarding, or post in a #verify channel with their enrollment email so a moderator can grant the role.
If you run cohorts, create one invite and one role per cohort so you can archive a group later.

Step 3: automate with Zapier or webhooks

Use a Teachable enrollment or sale trigger in Zapier, if available on your plan, or a Teachable webhook pointed at your own endpoint.
Post a Discord channel message for each enrollment (for example in a staff-only #new-enrollments channel). This works without any Discord ID.
To assign roles, collect the student's Discord user ID (a form or a Connect Discord login) and pass it to a Discord add-role step. The bot doing it must have a role above Student.

When to use a role bot or membership platform instead

If the Discord community is part of what people pay for, use a tool that links Discord accounts and removes roles when payment stops. The trade-off is that checkout for the Discord access may live outside Teachable. Compare options in Whop vs LaunchPass and automatic roles after purchase.
