Getting started with Layer 7

At the core of all our services is TheSentinelBot, which makes all the magic happen. Rather than have multiple bots, we have all our services under one bot. And these services can all be turned off or on through our website.

Step 1: Add The Sentinel to your team

Due to Reddit's API rate limits, we have multiple instances (bot accounts) of TheSentinelBot. Follow these instructions to figure out which bot to add:

  • Check the number of subscribers your subreddit has
  • If the sum of a bot's Current Subscribers and your subscribers is less than Max Subscribers, then you can add that bot
  • At a minimum the bot needs the posts permission.
