Form Template (Discord Integration)
Craft and send custom Discord messages with ease
Overview
While gamers represent many Discord users, the platform has also been a hit with businesses. Which is no surprise: Discord offers real-time video, voice, and text capabilities, complete with customizable role structures for teams and online communities. If you run a weekly thread or post regular reminders in a Discord channel, why not automate those tasks instead of sending message manually?
Start by using our Send channel message form template. It uses a form that lets you customize a message, then shoot it to your channel of choice automatically. With one less item on your to-do list, you’ll gain more time for the community nurturing or team-building that only you can manage.
Zapier products the template uses
- Interfaces — an automated form, page, and app builder for collecting data
- Tables — databases that let you track and automate your data
- Zaps — automated workflows
- Canvas — a diagramming tool that helps you visualize your workflows
How this form template works
This template gives Discord users a seamless, automated messaging system.
Here's a breakdown of how it works:
- Custom form creation: The template comes with a user-friendly interface with various fields for crafting Discord messages. This includes options for channel selection, message content, embed information, and file uploads.
- Data collection: When you or your team members fill out the form, all the necessary info for creating a rich Discord message gets collected in a table.
- Zap trigger: That activates a Zap that processes the collected info. The Zap uses the data from the form to format the message according to your specifications. This includes structuring embeds, processing mentions, and preparing any extra customizations. Your formatted message then gets sent to your specified Discord channel.
- Scheduling: If you choose to schedule your message for later, Tables comes into play, storing the message information until the designated send time.
- Workflow visualization: In Canvas, you can easily see all the steps in your workflow and modify them as needed.
