Discord full embed options

Questions
1

Hey there!

Short question:
Can we get for the Discord Node (Send Message) the full embed options like additional fields, inline, author image url and so on? I tried it with JSON input and i sadly get the errors: The parameter Description is not properly formatted, The parameter Author is not properly formatted

Would be great :slight_smile:

Hi @theDaRkMaN1984,
the Discord node has an issue with some parts of the embeds when used with JSON. This is already under our radar.

As an alternative solution, you can use the HTTP Request node by calling this URL https://discord.com/api/v10/channels/<CHANNEL_ID>/messages with the POST method,
You can then use your existing Discord credentials, and send a body that looks like this:

{
  "content": "Test",
  "embeds": [
    {
      "title": "Embed title",
      "author": {
        "name": "John Doe",
        "icon_url": "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/15/Cat_August_2010-4.jpg/362px-Cat_August_2010-4.jpg"
      }
    }
  ]
}

here’s an example of the configured node:

Let me know if this solves your problem
