This is an n8n community node package that provides nodes to interact with the Discord API via a Discord bot, allowing you to automate Discord workflows.
This package provides two nodes:
- Discord Trigger DND: Triggers workflows based on Discord events
- Discord Action DND: Performs actions in Discord channels and conversations
The Discord Trigger node allows you to start n8n workflows when specific Discord events occur. It supports a wide range of trigger types:
- Message: Listen for message-related events like message creation, deletion, updates, and reactions
- Guild: Events related to servers, channels, and threads
- Moderation: Ban events and audit log entries
- Emoji & Sticker: Track emoji and sticker changes in a server
- Integration & Webhook: Monitor integration and webhook updates
- Invite: Track creation and deletion of invites
- Voice: Monitor voice channel activities
- Presence: Track user presence status changes
- Scheduled Event: Listen for scheduled events in servers
- Interaction: Handle interactions like slash commands
- Bot Status: Get bot-related events like ready status
- User: User updates and guild member events
- Auto Moderation: Auto-moderation rule events
- Poll: Discord poll events
For message triggers, you can filter based on:
- Bot mentions
- Message content (contains, starts with, ends with, equals, regex)
- Direct messages
- Server, channel, role, and user filters
The Discord Action node allows you to perform actions in Discord:
- Send typing indicator
- Send messages (with text, embeds, and files)
- Delete messages
- Edit messages
- React to messages
- Remove reactions
- Pin/unpin messages
