Midjourney Account: Complete Tutorial on Linking Discord and Switching Logins

Midjourney’s login and authorization rely on a Discord account. Only if it’s linked correctly can you generate images normally, view the gallery, and manage subscriptions. Below, following “first-time linking — safe logout — switching accounts — common sticking points,” we’ll clearly explain the Midjourney workflow to avoid repeated authorization and login loops.

First-time linking: Log in to Midjourney via Discord authorization

Open the Midjourney official website and click “Sign in.” The system will redirect to the Discord authorization page. After confirming the current Discord account is correct, click Authorize. Midjourney will automatically return to the web page and complete the login. If you use Discord on both computer and phone, it’s recommended to first log Discord into the correct account on the device you intend to use, then authorize Midjourney—this reduces the chance of linking the wrong account.

Safe logout: Avoid account mix-ups and leftover permissions

When someone else needs to use it or you’re borrowing a device temporarily, it’s safer to log out on the Midjourney web first, then handle the authorization record on the Discord side. In Discord, go to “User Settings → Authorized Apps,” find Midjourney, and revoke authorization. Next time you log in to Midjourney, the authorization page will pop up again. The benefit is that even if the browser still has cached data, Midjourney is less likely to automatically take you back into the original account.

Switching accounts: Log into different Midjourney accounts in the same browser

The key to switching Midjourney accounts is “switching Discord accounts,” because a Midjourney account is typically tied to the Discord login identity. The easiest method is to use an incognito window: first log into the target Discord account in the incognito window, then open the Midjourney website and authorize login; the main window keeps the original Midjourney session unaffected. If you switch Discord accounts directly in the same window, it’s recommended to log out of Midjourney first and clear cookies for that site; otherwise, Midjourney may keep jumping back to the old account.

Common issues: Authorization page stuck, repeated redirects, and login failure

If the Midjourney authorization page gets stuck, first check whether the browser is blocking third-party cookies or whether you have script-blocking extensions installed. Temporarily disabling them and trying again usually works. If you encounter a loop where Midjourney “returns to the login page after authorization,” it’s most likely that Discord didn’t actually switch to the target account, or browser cache pushed the old session back—using an incognito window is the most straightforward fix. If you still can’t log in to Midjourney after revoking authorization, switch to a different network environment and restart the Discord–Midjourney authorization flow; this usually resolves occasional request errors.
