Post as webhook
Post a message through a webhook the bot made, with a name and picture of your choosing.
webhook.send
In a flow
“When a button is clicked, post as webhook.”
/say → Post as webhook Announcer: {trigger.text}.
What it does
Post a message through a webhook the bot made, with a name and picture of your choosing. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 1 value later steps can use. Find it under Protection in the palette.
When to use it
Use it to keep the server safe: post a message through a webhook the bot made, with a name and picture of your choosing.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
