Midjourney Registration to Discord Binding: Complete Step-by-Step Tutorial and Account Switching

This article clearly walks through the entire Midjourney process—from registration and first login, to linking Discord and successfully generating images—and also adds the most common pitfall: how to switch accounts. Midjourney’s main entry point is midjourney.com, but its account system is still tightly linked to Discord. Follow the steps below and you can usually get everything set up in one go.

Before registering, prepare: a Discord account and basic settings

Before using Midjourney, first prepare a Discord account that works properly and complete email verification—this is a prerequisite for later authorization and joining servers. It’s recommended to set an avatar and nickname in Discord to avoid a new account looking too “empty,” which can frequently trigger security checks when joining communities. If you need multiple accounts, first clearly distinguish which Midjourney subscription and gallery correspond to each Discord account.

Midjourney registration and first login: complete authorization on the official website

Open midjourney.com. After clicking Log In, you’ll usually be redirected to the Discord authorization page; confirm authorization to link that Discord account with Midjourney. After authorization, you’ll return to the official site and see your profile page and the generation entry point—at this moment, your Midjourney account is considered successfully registered. If the page keeps redirecting repeatedly, first check whether your browser is blocking third-party cookies, or pause your ad-blocking extension and try again.

Link Discord and start generating: let the bot “enter the scene”

Midjourney generation can be done on the website, and it’s also commonly done inside Discord by interacting with the bot; either way, the prerequisite is that your Midjourney is already linked to Discord. Join the official Midjourney Discord (or your own server) and confirm you can see the relevant channels and prompts about Midjourney Bot permissions. The first time you use it in Discord, enter commands according to the channel rules (for example, start a generation in an allowed channel). If you can’t send messages, it’s most likely that the channel doesn’t allow speaking or you don’t have the required channel permissions, rather than Midjourney itself being “broken.”

Account switching and multi-device sync: the most reliable sequence of actions

Switching Midjourney accounts essentially means switching the Discord account you’re logged into: first log out on midjourney.com, then log out of the current account in Discord and log into another account, and finally return to the website to re-authorize and enter. When using both phone and computer at the same time, try to keep the same Discord account online; otherwise, you’ll feel like your Midjourney works and history “don’t match up.” If you need to switch frequently on the same computer, it’s recommended to use different browser profiles for different accounts, so the Midjourney and Discord login states are less likely to get mixed up.
