Discord Integration

Receive exit1.dev monitoring alerts in your Discord server.

Setup

Step 1: Create a Webhook in Discord

1. Open your Discord server settings
2. Navigate to Integrations > Webhooks
3. Click New Webhook
4. Name the webhook (e.g., “exit1.dev Alerts”)
5. Select the channel for notifications
6. Click Copy Webhook URL

Step 2: Connect in exit1.dev

1. Navigate to Settings > Integrations > Discord
2. Paste the Discord webhook URL
3. Click Save

Step 3: Test

Click Send Test Notification to verify the connection. A test message will appear in your Discord channel.

Notification Format

Discord notifications are sent as rich embeds:

• Color-coded - Red for down, green for recovery, yellow for warnings
• Check name as the embed title
• Status details in embed fields
• Timestamp in the embed footer

Down Notification

A red-colored embed with:

• Title: “Production Website is DOWN”
• Fields: URL, Status Code, Error, Region
• Timestamp

Recovery Notification

A green-colored embed with:

• Title: “Production Website is UP”
• Fields: URL, Response Time, Status Code, Region
• Timestamp

Managing the Integration

Updating Webhook URL

Navigate to Settings > Integrations > Discord, update the webhook URL, and save.

Disconnecting

Remove the webhook URL from exit1.dev settings and optionally delete the webhook from your Discord server.

Troubleshooting

• Notifications not appearing - Verify the webhook URL is correct and the webhook hasn’t been deleted in Discord
• Rate limiting - Discord has rate limits on webhooks; exit1.dev handles this automatically with retries
• Permission errors - Ensure the webhook has permission to post in the target channel
