### Update your Discord Application Settings
#### Update Webhook URL
In order to receive webhook events for your custom bot you must update the "INTERACTIONS ENDPOINT URL" in the Discord Application General Information Page.
Enter the following URL "{publicKey}"
You must replace {publicKey} with your application public key. Which can be found just above the Interactions Endpoint URL Input.
For example if your public key is "def077d8420fb37d33f83b835da308ded92fb61a9d9ccb443769bba31fc081ad" the url will look like def077d8420fb37d33f83b835da308ded92fb61a9d9ccb443769bba31fc081ad
If you successfully added the URL it will prompt you as such. It will fail to save if you've done this incorrectly.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.betsybot.xyz/features/settings/setting-up-your-custom-bot.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
