v3.23.1 · Two-way Oxide ↔ Discord sync

One verified identity. Discord, Steam, and Rust in 30 seconds.

SimpleLinks ties Discord ↔ Steam ↔ your Rust servers behind a single branded link. Players verify once, your roles, kits, and shop perks gate themselves, every player gets a live Trust Score, and Oxide groups stay in lockstep with Discord roles in both directions. No bot to babysit. No database to host. No analytics on your players.

What only we ship

Three things no other Rust linker does.

Most identity tools stop at "verified role assigned." We treat every linked player as a living record — roles flow in both directions, reputation is computed in real time, and the full relationship graph is one click away. Built specifically for Rust operators who run more than one server.

01 Industry first

Two-way role bridge

Oxide groups in Rust and Discord roles stay in lockstep — both directions, sub-minute, with full audit trail.

  • Per-server mappings. Different Rust servers in the same Org can map the same Oxide group to different Discord roles.
  • Mods can promote from Discord. Grant @VIP in Discord, the plugin runs oxide.usergroup add on next sync — no SSH, no console.
  • Idempotent reconciliation. Every change is queued, applied, then confirmed. Reboot the plugin mid-sync and nothing duplicates.
02 Computed live

Trust Score, 0–100

Every linked identity carries a composite reputation score with a 30-day history graph. Triage hundreds of players in seconds.

  • Four weighted factors. Stability 35%, cross-server reputation 25%, account age 20%, multi-account penalty 20%.
  • 30-day trend, every player. Spot reputation decay before it becomes a grief incident.
  • No remote scoring service. Computed on our edge from your own data — no third-party model, nothing leaves your Org.
03 One view, all servers

Account Graph

See every Steam ↔ Discord bond — current and archived — for any identity, across every Rust server in your Org.

  • Full relationship history. Every unlink and re-link is preserved as an archived edge — the multi-account penalty isn't a black box.
  • Cross-server reputation surfaces here. See max Oxide tier per server next to each Steam node.
  • Activity Timeline alongside. Every link, unlink, role change, group change — one chronological feed per identity.
Built for operators

Four moving parts. Zero infrastructure of your own.

Identity verification, Rust server integration, Discord automation, and your own brand surface — every layer ships in the box. No SDKs, no schemas to design, no scripts to write.

Identity verification

Discord OAuth and Steam OpenID, fused into one flow.

One-click Discord + Steam. Under 30 seconds, no bot commands, no token paste.
Steam Group gating. Require players to join your Steam group before the link completes.
Player-side unlink page. Self-service revocation honoring GDPR and right-to-be-forgotten.
Relink detection. Account swaps are handled cleanly — the old link is closed, the new one opens.
Encrypted at rest. Per-org isolated row storage. No analytics, no resale.

Rust server integration

One .cs file. Oxide and Carbon supported.

Drop-in plugin. Reads config.json, calls our edge, fires OnPlayerLink hooks.
Multi-server identity pool. One Org, many Rust servers, one shared link table.
Oxide permission group sync. Discord roles map to Rust permissions — reversible in either direction.
Live heartbeat & player count. Dashboard sees who's online, when servers last reported.
Sub-200ms role assign. Plugin reacts to verifications without polling, without rate limits.

Discord automation

Use our bot, or bring your own. Logs go where you tell them.

Verification logs to Discord. Every link and unlink lands as a rich embed in your chosen channel. New
Auto role sync. Verified role assigned the moment a player links — removed when they unlink.
Nickname sync. Prefix or suffix Discord names with Steam IDs, profile flags, or anything you script.
Nitro detection. Recognize boosters and assign a Nitro-only role automatically.
Custom Bot add-on. Run verifications under your own Bot Token instead of the shared platform bot. $5 / mo

Your brand, our edge

A link page on your domain, in your colors, on a global edge.

Custom domain with managed TLS. Point a CNAME, we provision the cert, renew on schedule. Standard
Custom CSS. Full visual control over the link page — background, type, accents, even animations. Pro
White-label. Remove the SimpleLinks footer entirely — your brand stands alone. Pro
Logo, title, and nav. Available on every plan including Free — brand basics aren't gated.
Global low-latency edge. 14 ms p50 from anywhere. No origin servers to keep alive.
Verification logs · new in v3.11

Watch every link land in your Discord channel.

Set a Log Channel ID on each Guild and we'll post a rich embed every time a player links, unlinks, or relinks. Green for successful verifications, red for revocations, with the cause attached — user, admin, plugin, relink, or zombie-cleanup. Best-effort delivery, never blocks the underlying action.

How it works

Three steps from install to first verified player.

01 CREATE ORG

Sign in with Discord

One click. We pull your Discord guilds — pick one, give it a slug, that's your org.

org: demo
guild: 123456789012345678
tier: free
02 INSTALL PLUGIN

Drop the plugin in Oxide

Copy SimpleLinks.cs into oxide/plugins/. Paste your API key into the generated config.

"api_key": "sl_live_8c3a…"
"guild_id": "123…"
03 SHARE LINK

Send players to /verify

Your branded page at yourbrand.com/verify. The plugin auto-syncs Discord roles within 200 ms.

hook OnPlayerLink(steamId, discordId) {
  // assign role, grant kit…
}
vs. the alternatives

What you don't have to build.

Most Rust communities patch verification together from a general-purpose Discord linker, a spreadsheet, and a handful of console scripts. SimpleLinks ships every layer purpose-built for Rust operators — here's how the capabilities line up, neutrally.

For developers

A clean REST API. Three key types. Scoped permissions.

Issue a Plugin key for your Rust servers, a Bot key for your Discord automations, or a Custom key for whatever else — each one carries only the action groups it needs. Verification responses are HMAC-signed per org.

Built for the operators who write code.

Every link, unlink, role sync, and pending-change query lives behind a single REST surface. Permission groups (lookup, update, sync, cleanup) keep blast radius tight. Docs include curl-ready samples for every endpoint.

Three key types: Plugin, Bot, Custom
Per-key permission groups, revocable from the dashboard
HMAC-signed responses with per-org rotating secret
Bulk endpoints for nicknames, roles, and Oxide groups

Transparent by design

What we read. What we keep. What we don't.

SimpleLinks is opinionated about identity privacy. The data your players hand over to us is the minimum needed to verify, and we publish what we ask for, what we store, and what we won't touch.

We do this
Read Discord identify scope (id, username, avatar).
Read Steam ID via Steam OpenID 2.0 (public).
Store the link {discord_id, steam_id, guild_id} in your organization's isolated row.
Sign verification responses with a per-org HMAC before sending to your plugin.
Honor unlink requests within seconds; data export available on Standard and up.
We never do this
Request email, friends list, DMs, or any write scope on Discord.
Run analytics, fingerprinting, or third-party JS on your link pages.
Share identity data across organizations or resell it. Ever.
Rate-limit the free tier's verifications or charge per linked account.
Lock you in. Your data is exportable as JSON; portable to any backend.
