Discord Automation

Get real-time notifications in Discord when custom events are triggered on your website.

Example of a Discord notification when a custom event is triggered

Step 1: Get Your Discord Webhook URL

Before setting up automation in TrackFox, you need to create a webhook in your Discord server.

Creating a Discord Webhook

1. Open Discord and navigate to your server
2. Decide on which text channel you want the alerts in and press the cog next to the channel name
3. In the left sidebar, click on Integrations
4. Click on Webhooks then click on Create Webhook (or New Webhook if you already have one)
5. Click on the newly generated Webhook
6. Click Copy Webhook URL - you'll need this in the next step

Note: Keep your webhook URL private. Anyone with the URL can send messages to your Discord channel.

Step 2: Connect Discord in TrackFox

1. Go to your dashboard and select the website you want to set up automation for
2. Click on the dropdown menu for your website in the top left of your dashboard
3. Click on Site Settings
4. Navigate to the Automations tab
5. In the Discord Webhooks section, paste your webhook URL
6. Click Connect Discord

Once connected, you'll see a confirmation message and your webhook URL will be displayed.

Step 3: Configure Event Notifications

After connecting your webhook, you can configure which events trigger notifications.

Event States

Each custom event can be in one of two states:

• Active 🔔: Event will trigger Discord notifications
• Muted 🔕: Event will not trigger notifications (default state)

Setting Event States

1. In the Automations tab, scroll to the Events section
2. You'll see a list of all custom events that have been tracked on your website
3. Click on any event to toggle between Active and Muted states

Step 3: Test Your Webhook

Before relying on automation, test that your webhook is working correctly:

1. In the Automations tab, click the Test button
2. You should receive a test notification in your Discord channel
3. The notification will appear as a green embed with the title "🧪 Test Notification"

Note: The Test button is only available when you have at least one Active event configured.

Disconnecting Your Webhook

To disconnect your Discord webhook:

1. In the Automations tab, scroll to the bottom
2. Click the Disconnect button
3. Confirm the disconnection in the popup

Warning: Disconnecting will stop all notifications. You'll need to reconnect and reconfigure event states if you want to re-enable notifications later.
