To get a discord token, go to the Discord Developer Portal and create a new application. Then, go to the bot tab and create a bot. You can then copy the token and paste it into the Config.json file. Also do not forget to enable all the Privileged Gateway Intents

Register for the FTC API FTC Events API

To get a NASA API key, go to the NASA API Portal and create a new application. You can then copy the token and paste it into the Config.json file

If you need to test the AI command, you can get a GitBook token by going to the GitBook Developer Portal

To get a Google Maps token, go to the Google Maps Developer Portal and create a new application. You can then copy the token and paste it into the Config.json file

It is not required to run with a Google Maps token as it only uses the google maps api if the normal geocoding fails
