BOTLOBBIESWhere do I find the correct bot name to invite?
Use the bot identity shown for your current linked or selected bot in the panel. Distinguish its Epic display name from your player name and any local nickname used to organize bots on the website.
Read the selected bot before searching
Open the panel for the session you intend to use and confirm which bot is selected. The interface derives a visible bot name from the linked account, current bot information, or saved configuration, depending on the step. If you manage more than one bot, a previously familiar name can belong to a different selection. Do not invite the first similar social entry you recognize. Compare the exact display name shown for the current session with the entry found in Fortnite.
Separate the bot name from your player identity
The setup can also ask you to identify or verify the real player who will use the bot. That is a different field from the account supplying the automated lobby presence. Your own player name should not be copied into the social search as if it were necessarily the bot's name. If both names look similar, return to the linking summary and check which role each occupies before creating more invitations. A local organization label is not proof of a new Epic account identity.
Recheck after a selection or recovery change
If you switch bots, complete an account recovery, or reopen the panel after a long gap, compare the assigned name again. The same browser tab may now display a different session than the one you originally invited. If the correct bot is still absent, record whether it is connected and whether Fortnite accepted the invitation. Support needs the distinction between selecting the wrong account and failing to connect the right one; avoid posting private account IDs or authorization details to make that distinction.
