DiscordInstall

Summary

Send a Discord message to the specified channel, with optional content, embeds, interactive components, attachments, mentions, flags, and message-reference settings. The node builds the message payload and uploads any selected input binary files alongside it.

Inputs

• Authentication — Choose Bot Token (default) or OAuth2 (User Token).
• Channel (required) — Discord channel snowflake ID to send the message to.

• Embeds — Add up to 10 embeds with titles, descriptions, links, timestamps, colors, footers, images, thumbnails, authors, and fields.

• TTS — Send the message as text-to-speech when enabled.

Output shape

A single Discord message record returned by the send request.

The source pack shows the message operation's optional-attachment pre-send handler; it does not expose the full request or response handling, so additional output fields cannot be established from the supplied source.
