description: Send Report URI Watch alerts to a Discord channel using Discord's Slack-compatible webhook endpoint.
---

# Discord

Discord accepts Slack-formatted payloads on a dedicated endpoint, so Report URI alerts arrive as readable messages with no translation layer. **You have to append `/slack` to the webhook URL** - without it, nothing appears.

## Creating the webhook URL

1. In Discord, open **Server Settings > Integrations > Webhooks**.
2. Click **New Webhook**, give it a name and pick the channel it posts to.
3. Click **Copy Webhook URL**.

The URL looks like:

    https://discord.com/api/webhooks/1234567890/AbCdEf...

## Append `/slack`

Add `/slack` to the end before pasting it into Report URI:

    https://discord.com/api/webhooks/1234567890/AbCdEf.../slack

That endpoint accepts a Slack-format body. Our payload always carries a `text` key, so Discord renders the alert as a message.

## Sending alerts to Discord

Open the **Config** modal on the watcher you want alerts from, enable **Send Webhook alerts**, and paste the modified URL into **Target webhook URI**.

## Things to watch for

- **The `/slack` suffix is the whole trick.** Discord's own webhook format uses a `content` key, not `text`. Post our payload to the unmodified URL and Discord rejects it - the alert simply never arrives, with nothing in your account to indicate why.
- Discord does not support Slack's `channel`, `icon_emoji`, `mrkdwn` or `mrkdwn_in` properties. We do not send them, but it is worth knowing if you compare output with Slack.
- You will not get the linked, formatted message Slack receives. Report URI sends Block Kit only to Slack's own webhook URLs, so Discord gets the plain summary text.
- The webhook URL is a secret - anyone with it can post to the channel.
