Limits
Everything else on a downgrade is disabled rather than deleted, and returns on upgrade.
Two submission flows
Dialog Button
A Discord pop-up form. Free on every tier. Maximum 5 questions.
Private Message
Vetox DMs the applicant and asks questions one at a time. Supports the full question limit.
What the DM flow cannot do
The DM flow asks questions as chat messages, so the richer question types degrade:Questions
Eight types. Text questions take a 0–4,000 character range; dropdowns take up to 25 choices; file uploads take up to 10 files.Eligibility
Who is allowed to apply:Required and blocked roles, and auto-deny, require Basic. Multi-server verification requires Max.
Workflow actions
What happens on submit, accept or deny.Variables in action messages
Staff review
Applications post to a review channel where reviewers accept or deny.The private thread option for review threads has no effect — review threads are always public to anyone who can see the review channel. Restrict the channel itself instead.
A reviewer cannot review their own application.
Permissions Vetox needs
Most other failures are reported into the review channel so staff can see what went wrong.
