Discord Message Block

Send messages to Discord with optional link preview control

The Discord Message block is designed to facilitate sending messages to Discord channels directly from Scout workflows. This block supports dynamic message content through Jinja templating and provides an option to disable link previews, allowing for precise control over message presentation.

Configuration (Required)

Discord Message
codeRequired

The content of the message to be sent to the specified Discord channel. This field supports Jinja templating, enabling dynamic message construction based on the workflow state.

Disable Link Previews

Disables link previews for the message. By default, it is set to false, allowing link previews. Set this to true to prevent Discord from generating previews for links contained in the message.

See Workflow Logic & State > State Management for details on using dynamic variables in this block.

Usage Context

Use this block to send messages to Discord channels, especially when you need to control the appearance of links or include dynamic content.

Best Practices

  • Ensure the message content is correctly formatted using Jinja templates for dynamic data.

  • Test the message output to verify that it renders as expected in Discord.
