# Send DMs to each member

![Example of the contents of a direct message for TB Platoon Assigner](/files/-LMNtPpp3cLMoJFdtB4K)

{% hint style="warning" %}
This feature requires use of the [EchoStation bot](/echostation.md).
{% endhint %}

## Setup

First, if you haven't already, make sure your guild is registered to your Discord server.

{% content-ref url="/pages/-LL6LeMQTohJI7lHwlyr" %}
[registerguild](/echostation/guild-commands/registerguild.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

Next, in order for a DM to be sent successfully, EchoStation needs to be able to match a guild member's ally code to their Discord user. This is made possible by registering their ally code with the EchoStation bot. This must be done for **every guild member** that you want to receive a DM!

{% content-ref url="/pages/-LMNuSPYkmHbC1tOpr5U" %}
[/register](/echostation/player-commands/register.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

Lastly, make sure to opt in before submitting for assignments!

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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.echobase.app/settings/send-dms-to-each-member.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`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.
