Discord

Forward bichitos to a Discord channel with one webhook URL.

The Discord transform is the sibling of Slack: bichito posts to a Discord webhook URL and we wrap the payload into the embed format Discord expects.

Set up the Discord side

  1. In Discord, open the channel's Settings → Integrations → Webhooks → New webhook.
  2. Name it (e.g. "bichito") and pick an avatar if you want.
  3. Copy webhook URL — looks like https://discord.com/api/webhooks/.../....

Set up the bichito side

  1. In /{hive}/honeycombs/{id}/integrations, click New webhook.
  2. Paste the Discord URL.
  3. Pick events — bug.created is the usual default.
  4. Set Transform to discord.
  5. Save.

What lands in Discord

For bug.created:

  • Embed title: the bichito title (linked to the dashboard).
  • Embed colour: by severity (red for critical, orange for high, yellow for medium, grey for low).
  • Embed body: the description, truncated to ~500 chars (Discord has a 2KB limit per embed, but we keep it short for readability).
  • Footer: honeycomb name + reporter email if any.

For bug.commented / bug.updated, similar embed with the relevant context.

Threads vs channels

Discord webhooks post to a single channel. We don't currently fan out into a thread per bichito — every event lands in the same channel, ordered by time. If you want one thread per bichito, you'll need a custom webhook handler that calls Discord's API with thread_id and our raw payload — register a raw webhook for that.

Rate limits

Discord rate-limits webhooks to ~30 requests per minute per channel. We respect their Retry-After header automatically, so a burst of bichitos won't get you banned — they queue and replay.

Removing the integration

Same pattern as Slack: revoke the webhook in the dashboard. The Discord URL itself stays usable until you delete it on Discord's side.
