Add a Discord channel

Market Rodeo posts to Discord through a webhook: a private link that lets an app post messages into one channel of your server. You create the webhook in Discord and paste its link into Market Rodeo.

Create a webhook in Discord

You need the Manage Webhooks permission on the server. Server owners and admins have it.

1. In Discord, hover over the channel you want alerts in and click the gear icon (Edit Channel).
2. Go to Integrations and click Webhooks.
3. Click New Webhook. Discord creates one with a random name. You can rename it, for example "Market Rodeo".
4. Click Copy Webhook URL.

The link starts with https://discord.com/api/webhooks/. Keep it private: anyone who has it can post to that channel.

Add the channel in Market Rodeo

1. In the dashboard, go to Channels and click Add channel.
2. Choose Discord.
3. Paste the link into Webhook URL.
4. Optionally, give it a Name, such as "Trading desk". If you leave it empty it's called "Discord".
5. Click Send test alert.

We post a "Channel connected" message to the channel. The channel is saved only if that message arrives. It then appears in your list marked Verified, and you can pick it as a destination when you create or edit a rule.

If the test fails

The red message under the form shows what went wrong, and nothing is saved. Common causes:

• "Invalid Discord webhook URL": the link doesn't start with https://discord.com/api/webhooks/. Copy it again with Copy Webhook URL.
• "Discord returned …": Discord rejected the link, usually because the webhook was deleted or the link was cut short when you copied it. Create a new webhook and paste its full link.

See Discord webhook errors for more examples.

Free plan limit

The Free plan includes one Discord channel (and one Telegram channel). To post to a different Discord channel, remove your current Discord channel and add the new one. Pro has no channel limit.
