# Getting Started

> Invite Petto and get the basics configured.

## Add Petto to your server

<Card title="Add Petto" icon="rocket-launch" href="https://petto.sbs/invite">
  Requires **Manage Server** permission on the server you're adding it to.
</Card>

## The dashboard

Most of Petto's configuration can be done without typing a single command, at [petto.sbs/dash](https://petto.sbs/dash). Log in with Discord, pick your server, and every module (Moderation, Automation, Tickets, Leveling, Giveaways, Embeds, and more) has its own page.

<Tip>
  Everything the dashboard can do, the prefix commands below can also do. Use whichever is faster for you.
</Tip>

## First things to configure

<Steps>
  <Step title="Set a mute role (optional)">
    Moderation's `!mute` works with Discord's native timeout by default, no role needed. If you'd rather use a dedicated mute role instead, set it on the dashboard's General page.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Route your logs">
    Pick channels for each of the 9 logging categories (sanctions, automod, members, messages, voice, roles, channels, invites, tickets) on the Logging page, or with `!logs add`.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Turn on leveling, if you want it">
    Leveling is off by default. Enable it and set the XP curve from the Leveling page, or `!level enable true`.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set up onboarding">
    Welcome/leave/boost messages, a verification gate, and bump reminders all live under Onboarding.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add identity roles, if you need them">
    Use the [Vanity & Guild Tags guide](/guides/vanity-tag-bot) to give roles from Custom Status text, profile values, or Discord Server Tag data.
  </Step>
</Steps>
