Discord recently released webhooks
I am having 400 errors after exactly following the procedure layed out by the discord team.
Is any one successful of achieveing the webhook with discord?
Looks like Discord need something like this:
curl -X POST --data '{ "embeds": [{"title": "Topic Title", "url": "https://example.com", "description": "This is a test for webhooks", "type": "link", "thumbnail": {"url": "https://d11a6trkgmumsb.cloudfront.net/original/3X/c/b/cb4bec8901221d4a646e45e1fa03db3a65e17f59.png"}}] }' -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://canary.discordapp.com/api/webhooks/url
that results:
You will need a plugin to format Discourse Webhook properly, or convince Discord to parse our webhook format (they already do exceptions for Github and Slack).

Update:
Using Zapier as the middleman, it’s pretty easy to integrate a Discourse webhook to Discord!
Use this template for new topics:

Thanks. The problem with Zapier is they are not free. You have to start paying after a low amount of Zap triggers.
I’ve made one you can use, you just need a web server running PHP to receive and process the webhooks from Discourse before sending them to Discord.

Another option is the new discourse-chat-integration plugin I’m working on - it can post new topics to Discord without Zapier or scripts on any other server.
