Discord Alerts (Channel Webhook)

··5 min read

Post a run summary to a Discord channel after each scheduled scrape.

Setup Steps

  1. In Discord, open the channel settings → Integrations → Webhooks → New Webhook.
  2. Name the webhook and click “Copy Webhook URL”.
  3. In Lection, set the delivery channel to "Discord" and paste the URL.

Mapping Tips

  • Each message includes status, row count, and a link to the exported file.
  • You need the “Manage Webhooks” permission on the channel.

Payload Highlights

  • Discord-formatted message with an embed, not the raw JSON payload.

Test Checklist

  • Paste the webhook URL in Lection and save the schedule.
  • Use “Run now” on the schedule and wait for it to finish.
  • Check the channel for the run summary and open the dataset link.
