Your ARK: Survival Ascended tribe log in Discord — on official servers, in seconds.

PARASAUR ALERT
Parasaur alert! (match 0.93)
Every log line becomes a colour-coded embed with a cropped picture of the in-game log. Serious events — structures destroyed, tribemates killed, sensors tripped, parasaur alerts — can go to a separate #raid-alerts channel with an @mention.
When things pile up ("3 deaths within 5 minutes") the bot joins a voice channel and plays a siren. Sleeping tribemates wake up. Raid spam collapses into one message with a counter instead of flooding the channel.
- Tribe log, global chat, who's online, screen checks, parasaur alerts
- @mention rules, voice siren, Battlemetrics population alerts
- Slash commands: mute, status, screenshot, chat into the game, timers
- Auto-reconnect and crash relaunch (optional)
Setup
Four steps. About three minutes.
- 1
Open the Tribe Log in ARK
Windowed Fullscreen, HUD 100%, Tribe Manager → LOG tab. Leave it open. Other windows can sit on top.
- 2
Paste a Discord webhook
Channel → Edit → Integrations → Webhooks → New. That's the only Discord setup needed.
- 3
Drag a box around the log text
The screen dims, you draw a rectangle, and a preview shows exactly what the bot reads.
- 4
Press Start
New lines show up in Discord within seconds. Tick 'start automatically' and forget about it.
- The app shows a green or red light for each step and explains what to fix. Full setup guide
Runs in the background
Keep using your PC. The game stays behind your windows.
Window capture
The bot reads the game window directly through Windows Graphics Capture, even when your browser or Discord covers it completely.
One rule
Don't minimize the game — Windows stops drawing minimized windows. Cover it, alt-tab, or park it on a second monitor.
Tiny footprint
Low graphics, 15 fps cap, and ~2 seconds of light OCR per check. An old PC or a laptop is enough.

On Xbox or PlayStation? Meet the ASA console tribe log bot.
Consoles have no tribe log API, so every raid-alert tool has been PC-only. ASA Tribe Log Bot reads the Tribe Log off your console's picture — through a cheap USB capture card, Remote Play, or a tribemate's Discord stream — and posts it to Discord exactly like it does for PC tribes.
- Capture card — console plays normally; the tribe's 24/7 watcher
- Remote Play — nothing to buy, same home network
- Discord stream — try it today, no console at the bot PC
First tribe log bot for console
Xbox · PlayStation · official PvP & Small Tribes
Features
Everything a small tribe needs
Works on official PvP servers
No mods, no RCON, no server access. It reads the Tribe Log inside your game client — the only way that works on official PvP, Small Tribes and every unofficial.
Keep using your PC
Captures the game window directly, even with your browser or Discord on top. Just don't minimize the game.

The ASA console tribe log bot
The only ASA log bot that reads Xbox & PlayStation: run the console's HDMI into a cheap USB capture card and it reads the log the same way. Also reads Remote Play windows.
new
Or read a Discord stream
No ARK, console or capture card on the bot PC? Have a tribemate Go-Live the game in Discord — the app reads that stream window and posts the log. Pick from five capture sources.
Raid alerts that wake people
@mention roles when destroyed / killed / sensor events pile up, and play a siren in a voice channel. Rules like '3 deaths within 5 minutes'.
Parasaur alert
Detects the parasaur alert icon on your HUD and posts a screenshot immediately.
Global chat
New global-chat messages posted with a picture. Your own tribe's messages are filtered out.
Who is online
A picture of your member list every few minutes, so the tribe knows who's on.
Screen check
A full screenshot on a schedule — proof the bot is still in and nothing looks wrong.
Alert channel routing
Serious events to #raid-alerts, everything else to #log. Raid spam collapses into one message with a ×12 counter.
optional
Auto-reconnect
Relogs after a disconnect, relaunches the game if it closed, reopens the Tribe Log and reports the downtime.
optional
Discord commands
/logbot mute, status, screenshot, siren, send chat messages into the game, plus /baby, /tekgen and /forcefield timers.
Server population
Battlemetrics status and player count, with an alert when the population climbs.
Heartbeat & self-healing
A 'still alive' post every day. Monitors are isolated and the engine restarts itself if anything crashes.
3-minute setup
Four guided steps with green/red lights and a live preview of what the bot reads. No technical skills needed.

ASA Console Tribe Log Bot Setup — Xbox/PS5, Official Servers
Xbox and PlayStation give tribes no way to export the tribe log — no API, no plugins, no app. But the log is on the console screen, and anything on screen can be read. Here are the three ways to get a console tribe log into Discord, cheapest first, and how to make the text read reliably.

How to Get Your ARK: Survival Ascended Tribe Log in Discord (Official Servers)
There is no official API for the ASA tribe log. The only thing that works on official servers is reading the log from a running game client and posting it to a Discord webhook — here's how to do that reliably.

Raid Alerts for ARK: Survival Ascended in Discord — Wake the Tribe When the First Turret Dies
A log channel nobody reads at 3 AM isn't an alert. Here's the alert design that actually works for small tribes: routing, thresholds, pings, and a voice-channel siren.
FAQ
Questions tribes ask
▸Does it work on official PvP servers?
Yes — official PvP, Small Tribes, PvE and unofficial servers alike. Official servers don't offer any API or webhook for tribe logs, so the bot reads the Tribe Log panel inside your running game client and posts what it sees. It needs a character logged in with the Tribe Log open.
▸How do I get the download?
The installer link comes with your license key right after purchase (email and the customer area). It is not distributed publicly.
▸Is it safe to use? Will I get banned?
By default the bot only captures the screen — it never injects anything into the game and never sends input. The optional auto-reconnect and chat-send features press keys like a macro would; they're off until you turn them on and are at your own risk under the game's rules.
▸Can I use my PC while it runs?
Yes. The bot captures the game window directly, so your browser, Discord or work can be in front of it. The one rule: don't minimize the game, because Windows stops drawing minimized windows. A second monitor or a $5 HDMI dummy plug makes it completely invisible.
▸Do I need a Discord bot?
No — a webhook is enough for all posting. A Discord bot (free, 5 minutes to create) is only needed for slash commands and the voice-channel siren.
▸How many PCs can I use?
One PC per license, locked to that PC's hardware. You can release it from inside the app and activate a different PC any time — a second PC running at the same time needs a second license.
▸What does it cost to run?
Nothing beyond the license. It runs on the PC that has the game open; a low-end PC at low settings and 15 fps is plenty.
▸Which resolutions are supported?
Any. You select the log area yourself and the bot reads it with OCR; 1080p and up give the cleanest text.
▸Does it work with Epic / Xbox / Windows Store versions?
Yes — on PC it reads the game window regardless of store (Steam, Epic, Windows/Xbox app). Auto-reconnect has a platform switch for the launch command.
▸Does it work on Xbox or PlayStation consoles?
Yes — this is the only ARK tribe log bot that reads consoles. There's no console software; instead you run the console's HDMI into an inexpensive USB capture card (the kind streamers use, ~$15–40) plugged into any Windows PC, then pick that device in the app and drag a box around the Tribe Log. Everything else — Discord posts, alerts, siren, @mentions — works exactly the same. You can also read an Xbox/PS Remote Play window on the PC with no capture card at all.
▸What are all the ways it can read the log?
Five, all feeding the same reader: (1) the ARK window on the PC it runs on; (2) a Discord stream — a tribemate Go-Lives the game and the app reads that stream window, so the bot PC needs no ARK, console or capture card; (3) an Xbox/PS Remote Play window; (4) a console through a USB capture card; (5) the whole screen as a last resort. You pick the source in the app; each one shows its own short instructions.
▸Can I read the log from a Discord stream?
Yes. Have someone stream ARK in a Discord voice channel (Go Live), open that stream on the PC running the app, Pop it Out into its own window, and choose the 'Discord stream' source. The bot reads the log from the stream and posts to your server — no game, console or capture card needed on the bot's PC. Higher stream resolution reads more reliably.
