Include link to Discord message in Zapier action

Hello everyone.

 I have created a Zap that captures messages that have a specific reaction and saves them to a Google doc. I am able to include the Message Content and Timestamp, but I would like to include a link directly to the message. I know I can copy a link directly to a message from inside Discord, but I can’t find how to capture it in my Zap. Any suggestions?

If you know the URL path values, then you may be able to dynamically create the link with a combo of static and dynamic values from previous Zap steps.

Hi @DRay 

Can you post an example of the desired link you want to include for us to have more context?

Hi @Troy Tessalone,

Thank you for the response. In Discord you can right-click on a message and copy a link directly to that message. I have highlighted it in the attached screenshot. That is the link I am trying to retrieve.

We would need to see an actual link example, can you post that?
