Overview

Rotations refresh a server’s emojis from a collection. Use them when you want seasonal sets, event-specific emoji pools, or a server that changes on a schedule.

Before you begin

You need:
  • A server Kao can manage
  • At least one collection with emotes
  • Enough plan allowance for active rotations
  • A backup if the rotation may remove existing emojis

Create a rotation

  1. Go to Rotations.
  2. Choose Create Rotation.
  3. Name the rotation and select a server.
  4. Choose the collection to use.
  5. Set the schedule.
  6. Choose behavior.
  7. Review and create the rotation.

Schedule options

You can set the timezone so the schedule matches your community.

Rotation behavior

Kao currently supports Full replacement when creating a rotation. It replaces the server emoji set with emotes from the selected collection.
Full replacement can remove many server emojis. Create a backup before enabling it on an important server.

Run a rotation manually

Use Execute Now when you want to test or run a rotation outside its schedule. Kao shows live progress while it removes and adds emojis. Large rotations can take several minutes because Discord limits how quickly a server can change emojis.

Manage rotations

From the Rotations page you can:
  • Enable or disable a rotation
  • Open rotation details
  • Run a rotation manually
  • View execution history
  • Delete a rotation
