# All channels

{% hint style="warning" %}
The [DRAFT and LIVE ](/publish/publishing-your-bot.md)versions of your bot use each their own channels. It means that if you add a channel to your DRAFT version for testing, you will need to add another channel to your LIVE version after you [published](/publish/publishing-your-bot.md) your bot for the first time.
