A role bind is a rule: people at this rank in the group get these roles in Discord. Cove applies them when somebody verifies, and again whenever their rank changes.
Settings → Role binds

Role binds, one per rank or range.

​
The three kinds

​
When binds overlap

They will, and that is fine. Somebody at rank 8 can match a rank bind, a range bind covering 5–12 and an everyone bind at once, and they get the roles from all three. Nicknames are the exception, because a person only has one. When more than one matching bind carries a nickname format, the most specific wins:

​
Per-bind nicknames

Some ranks want their own format. A bind can carry one, using the same tokens as the workspace format:
Leave it empty and the workspace format applies as normal.

​
Setting them up

Settings → Role binds. Pick the kind, choose the rank or range, and select the Discord roles it grants.
Check rank numbers against your group before saving. A bind pointed at a rank that doesn’t exist matches nobody and fails quietly — there is no one for Cove to refuse, so nothing appears to go wrong.
