Don't know what I'm doing wrong here, but it just posts the raw text and not an embed.

It just sends the raw text of what’s in the content field. The username and avatar_url fields work.

Hmmm - I’m beginning to think this might be one for support as I’ve seen a few similar ones.

Hey there @TheLarkShark! It looks like to get this working, you’ll need to use a Custom Request (Webhooks) POST action step (like you have set up) and the following code/formatting as an example:

{  "content": "This is a required field",  "embed": {    "title": "Title",    "description": "Description"  }}

For more information on getting this to work, here is the full documentation for embeds (https://discordapp.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#embed-object) as well as a handy visualizer for you to see what the embed will look like (along with the code you’ll need to use): https://leovoel.github.io/embed-visualizer/

I’m having this issue as well, I’ve been troubleshooting for a few hours now and i haven't had any luck.

I’ve already configured my embed on https://leovoel.github.io/embed-visualizer/ please help!

Also the configuration the author of this post submitted as POST seems to still exist but the form looks like it's changed.

Hello, I have exactly the same problem. I can’t send embed messages in Discord channels when players complete my Typeform.

I tried maybe everything possible but nothing works, can someone help us ? :cry:

Hi @Virtuose NETWORK!

 

In this case, the best thing to do is to get in touch with the Support Team. They can take a closer look at your Zap with you to see if there’s anything that we can do in in the set-up of the Zap, or if this is an issue that we need to look into on our side. Please contact the Support Team using the Get Help form. 

Thanks!

I found a solution to this problem. The custom request option doesn’t automatically add the content-type header so you have to do it yourself. Hope this helps.
