### Entries

A messages entry configures how messages are sent and received for the events above, with each targeting a specific Discord channel and/or Minecraft dimensions. You can have as many configurations as you desire, each serving a different purpose.

#### Discord Channel ID

An identifier for a channel within Discord to observe and post messages to.

```javascript
"entries": [
	{
		// Identifier for a channel within Discord to observe
		"id": 801945943871613728,
		// ...
	},
	// ...
]
```
