Troubleshooting
The addon keeps saying "Request to bot failed. Is the bot running?"

First, do you have the Node Bot[github.com] setup? That's really important. The Addon can't communicate with Discord without the Node Bot.

Assuming you do, then the two things that can cause this problem are are:
  1. Have you set the right discord_endpoint for the bot (eg: https://my-discord-bot.heroku.com:433)?
  2. If you're using the discord_api_key, does this match the one set in the Node Bot?

This Addon won't specifically tell you if the API-Key's miss-match. This is for security reasons. However, if you look at the console output for the Node Bot itself, you will see a log message, showing something like:
[ERROR][Authorisation Miss-Match]: "Basic Some-API-Key" !== "Basic Your-API-Key"
