# Captcha

### Create a Captcha Verification Channel in Discord

Begin by creating a **Captcha Verification** channel in your server. The captcha verification channel is where Vulcan will send the captcha panel used by members looking to gain entry into your server.

The <mark style="color:purple;">**Vulcan**</mark> role needs to have the following permissions in the Captcha channel. *<mark style="color:red;">**Be sure to double check your channel overrides to ensure Vulcan has sufficient access to send the captcha panel. A warning will appear at the setup screen if Vulcan lacks sufficient permissions and the configuration will not be able to be saved.**</mark>*

* **View Channel**
* **Send Messages**

To set up start by selecting the Captcha tab on your Vulcan dashboard. This is located at the top left side of the dashboard under the Verification category.

Next, select Add Captcha and assign the Captcha Channel as well as the role to assign once solved.

Once that's saved you're ready to go. Below is an example flow.

Finally, you can return to this Captcha section at any time to see when users in your server have verified within your server.

## Resending the Captcha Panel

To resend the Captcha panel open the Captcha <mark style="color:purple;">**Settings**</mark> page as shown above and set the Captcha Channel to **No Captcha Channel** then click Save<mark style="color:purple;">**.**</mark>

Then, reselect the **Captcha** channel from the list and click **Save** once more. You should see a fresh captcha panel in the Captcha channel.
