How to send an Embed?

[DeadLyBro]

Can you write how to send embed? Let others benefit as well.

Note: I just edit, nothing new.

EDIT:

SENDING EMBEDS AS A USER ACCOUNT IS NOT POSSIBLE ANYMORE, DISCORD UPDATED ITS API (see this reddit post)

---

Looks like the issue is the color, you need to send an integer (see https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#embed-object-embed-structure).

I found this nice embed generator online. Click + at the bottom in the embed section then copy the embed key in the JSON output.
https://discord.club/dashboard

I updated the API to accept a full embed (f9d15bd).

api = {
  sendEmbed: (channelId, embed = { title: 'Title', description: 'Description' }) => apiCall(`/channels/${channelId}/messages`, { embed }, 'POST')
}

Full example:

id()

const embed = {
  title: 'Title',
  color: 5022192,
  description: 'Description',
  timestamp: '2021-12-09T13:32:00.000Z',
  url: 'https://url.url/',
  author: {
    name: 'Author',
    url: 'https://author.url/',
    icon_url: 'https://picsum.photos/200'
  },
  image: {
    url: 'https://picsum.photos/200'
  },
  thumbnail: {
    url: 'https://picsum.photos/50'
  },
  footer: {
    text: 'Footer',
    icon_url: 'https://picsum.photos/20'
  },
  fields: [
    {
      name: 'Field1_key',
      value: 'Field1_value'
    },
    {
      name: 'Field2_key',
      value: 'Field2_value',
      inline: true
    }
  ]
}

await api.sendEmbed(cid, embed)
// or
await api.apiCall(`/channels/${cid}/messages`, { embed }, 'POST')

Output:

Yes, Discord updated its API but still you can send embeds. How? Let's explain. I found a embed generator that can give an customizable embed url. When u send it to Discord u can see your embed message.

The Generator Website: https://embedl.ink/

You can customize your embed with GET parameters like this: https://embedl.ink/?deg&provider=&providerurl=&author=&authorurl=&title=&color=%23000000&media=none&mediaurl=&desc=

Clever! Thanks for sharing.

Nice but if we don't have permission to send Links? :/

You can't do it without permission. After Discord API update, there is one way to send embeds, sending links.
