This is correct. You cannot use the default connection that Make provides, as their bot does not have “Guild Messages” permissions.
You need to create your own Discord app and use the client id and secret keys BEFORE you connect.
For more information, see the Discord documentation in the Help Center.
Here are some useful links and guides you can use to learn more on how to use the Make platform, apps, and app modules. I found these useful when I was learning Make, and hope they might benefit you too —
