Any guide to make generic webhook work with discord?

[dragonnest21]

First pardon my english. Not really good at it.

Anyway the setup looks pretty straight forward( or so i thought)
Below is the default setup. I just added my discord webhook. Hopefully someone can shed light. Played a little with
the JSON payload.

Yet it won't send any notification in discord. I know overseerr supports discord notification but i would like to
customize the notification sent to discord. I want to add a little instruction like to wait for a few minutes and that their
request has been accepted and is currently being searched. It is the only reason why i have not completely changed to overserr yet. But would really love to as i find the UI and overall experience better.

You need to follow the Discord API, but we do not officially support this.

The way to do this is to create a webhook (I personally like adnanh/webhook) and do your processing there.

@dragonnest21 The JSON payload in your screenshot does not follow the Discord API spec.

Oh wow. This actually solved my problem. I thought JSON payload/format is sort of universal. Did not know discord has its own. Thank you! Now time to setup reverse proxy so i can use my own custom domain :)

Do you still have all your configurations ? and how you did it ?

@EL-R1 This is what I use for notifying for new requests. I haven't been able to make one big json with everything I want yet, but here you go.

{
    "embeds": [
        {
            "color": 16744468,
            "author": {
                "name": "New media request"
            },
            "title": "{{subject}}",
            "url": "https://MY_OVERSEER_EXT_URL/{{media_type}}/{{media_tmdbid}}",
            "description": "{{message}}",
            "thumbnail": {
                "url": "{{image}}"
            },
            "fields": [
                {
                    "name": "Requested by",
                    "value": "{{requestedBy_username}}",
                    "inline": true
                },
                {
                    "name": "Status",
                    "value": "{{media_status}}",
                    "inline": true
                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}
