Discord

Send Xyte notifications into a Discord channel by creating a Discord webhook and pasting its URL into Xyte. This takes about two minutes.

Before you start

• Make sure you have the Manage Webhooks permission on the Discord server. Server owners and admins have it by default.
• Decide which channel the Xyte messages should post to.

Step 1 — Create the webhook in Discord

1. Open Discord and go to the server you want to post to.

2. Open Server Settings → Integrations → Webhooks.

   You can also open this from the channel: hover over the channel, click the gear icon, then go to Integrations → Webhooks.

   

3. Click New Webhook. Discord creates one automatically.

   

4. Click the new webhook to open it, then:

   • Give it a clear name. For example: Xyte Alerts.
   • Set the channel it should post to.
   • Optionally set an avatar.

5. Click Copy Webhook URL.

   

You now have a URL that looks like this:

https://discord.com/api/webhooks/<id>/<token>

Step 2 — Add the webhook to Xyte

1. In Xyte, go to Settings → Integrations.
2. Open the Messaging Platforms tab.
3. Select Discord from the list on the left.
4. Paste the copied URL into the Webhook URL field.
5. Click Update.

Step 3 — Verify

1. Click Send test message.
2. Check your Discord channel. The test message should appear there.
3. In Xyte, Discord will show as Active and the integration card will show Enabled.

Once enabled, Xyte notifications will be delivered to that Discord channel.

Troubleshooting

• No test message arrives — make sure the full URL was pasted. It is long, so confirm nothing was cut off. Also check that the webhook still exists in Discord, because deleting it in Discord breaks the link.
• Wrong channel — the webhook posts to the channel chosen in Step 1. Edit the webhook in Discord to change it, or create a new one for the right channel.
• Need to change the destination later — paste a new Webhook URL in Xyte and click Update, or click Disable to turn the integration off.
