Create a Discord web trigger#

You can create a web trigger to connect Unity Version Control with Discord to receive notifications. The notification includes the information available to the specific trigger that you use.

Create a Discord Webhook#

First, you need to choose which channel you want to receive notifications:

1. Right-click on the channel and select Edit channel > Integrations.
2. Select Create Webhook.
3. Select the webhook that appears to expand it. You can change the name and channel if you need to.
4. Select Copy Webhook URL.

Create the UVCS Webtrigger#

You can then use the Discord Webhook URL to set up a webtrigger. For a complete list of the types of triggers you can use, refer to this list of triggers.

You need to use the webtrigger-discord string (instead of webtrigger) before the script path, followed by the Discord webhook: webtrigger-discord https://discordapp.com/api/webhooks/${channelId}/${token}

Example Discord web triggers#

This example uses an after-ci so that you get a notification when someone runs a check in operation:

> cm trigger make after-ci NotifyTeam-Ci "webtrigger-discord https://discord.com/api/webhooks/810908382236114944/1ibzJPH4lm13dx9-95f5dY5UP8KsgQRw4yXKu71Gj0oIflEmosidoO9714enganado01ULCvA" --server=localhost:8787

The following example uses an after-mkbranch trigger so that you get a notification when anyone creates a new branch:

> cm trigger make after-mkbranch NotifyTeam-Branch "webtrigger-discord https://discord.com/api/webhooks/810908382236114944/1ibzJPH4lm13dx9-95f5dY5UP8KsgQRw4yXKu71Gj0oIflEmosidoO9714enganado01ULCvA" --server=localhost:8787
