The link put in the image field isn't actually an image (its the link to the website). Works for me when using a direct link to the png file: https://i.imgur.com/gjUvauj.png.

Necroposting, sure, but can you guys tell me how to get the application ID? Do I have to build and sync it up with my running game using the developer portal and the DiscordGameSDK?

You need to create an app in Discord Developer Portal and use its application ID

You need to create an app in [Discord Developer Portal](https://discord.com/developers/applications) and use its application ID

I see, however, how do you actually sync up the game? Cuz what seems to be happening is that since PlayCover specifies custom settings for every individual bottle you make, when you go and play that bottle PlayCover just takes whatever random application ID you have and slaps on custom settings. Is there any way to actually sync up the Developer API app to the running game itself?
