Joining a Department

How members join a department with a join link or code, and how requests and auto-join work.

How to Join

Ask a department administrator for the join link or join code. Administrators find both in General Settings → Join Code.

  • Join link: open the melon.ly/join/... link, sign in if asked and click Join department.
  • Join code: on your dashboard, click Join, enter the code and submit it.

Pending requests are listed under Join Requests on your dashboard, where you can also cancel them.

What Happens When You Join

Department setupResult
DefaultA membership request is sent. Someone with Manage Members reviews it on the roster.
You hold a rank's linked Discord roleYou join straight away at the highest matching rank. Needs a linked department Discord server.
Required Discord Roles are set on the join codeIf you have the roles, you join straight away at the lowest rank. If you don't, you can't join.

When a request is accepted, the member gets the highest rank whose linked Discord role they hold, or the lowest rank if they have none.

Auto-Join by Linked Role

Members are also added automatically when they're given a rank's linked Discord role in the department's Discord server. No join code is needed. Link Discord roles to ranks in Ranks.
