### How do I get an ID for an Emoji?

Discord has a neat little tool that allows you to get exactly what you need to enter inside Betsy.\
Simply type `\:myEmojiTag:`\
For example in the Betsy server we have :upvote: , so simply type `\:upvote:` and send it to Discord.

It will reply with you the following: `<:upvote:1097239123250651227>`

Put exactly that into the Betsy Message Editor to get your Emoji
