Send Current URL link to A Discord Webhook - php

Question

So, basically I need a way to send the current URL link to A Discord webhook.
So for example, the URL would be https://www.example.com and I need that link to send to my Discord webhook.
Is there any way someone could help me with this? If this is not possible, are there any alternative methods?

Answer 1

I would recommend you first reading this—it explains in detail how to format the payload so that it renders as a message in Discord properly, you can even use markdown!
Second, I'm not sure what language you want to code this in, but here's a simple example using Python and httpx
The idea to take away here is
Pick a client library
Study the Discord webhook message format
Create a client for HTTP
Set the logic to send the payload to the webhook you want
Create and send the payload with the formatted webhook message in a POST request
data = {

import httpx # pip install httpx, or poetry add httpx
with httpx.Client() as client:
request = client.post("https://www.discordwebhook.com", data=data) # needs to be a POST
print(request.status_code)
