e.koyama


By utilizing the Discord API, you can manage and operate servers, channels, messages, users, roles, and more. Among these, automating message sending is particularly in demand. You can set up notifications in Discord by integrating with various application APIs, ranging from general ones like databases, other chat tools, and email software, to those for specific business purposes like CRM, SFA, and HR systems.

For example, it is recommended for automatic notifications when information is added to a database, forwarding received emails, or sharing new lead registration information with stakeholders.
Conversely, there are also uses such as synchronizing the content of messages received on Discord with other applications using the Discord API.

How to Use the Discord API

This time, we will use a service called Yoom to utilize the Discord API without coding.

[What is Yoom]

If you are already using Yoom, please log in.

How to Connect Discord with Yoom

Setting Up My App Integration

1. After selecting "My Apps" from the left menu, click "+ Add" on the right side of the screen.

2. Select Discord from the new connection candidates in My Apps.
 ※ You can narrow down the candidates by entering the app name in the search box.

3. Enter the account name and access token, then click "Add".
 ※ For the Bot token to be entered in the access token field, please refer to this article and obtain it from the Discord Developer Portal.

The integration is now complete. You can now use the API provided by Discord from Yoom!

Examples of Automation Achievable with the Discord API

Notify Database Information

By using the Discord API, notifications are automatically sent when information is registered or updated in the database, or when comments are posted.

When multiple people are collaboratively editing a database, it is common to communicate changes within the team to prevent missing information or delays in subsequent processing due to unnoticed data additions or updates. However, if this communication is done manually, there is a risk of time-consuming transcription, input errors, or sharing omissions. Automating it can reduce these risks.

Additionally, using Yoom's AI operation function, you can summarize the registered content of the database to notify only the key points, or use schedule triggers to list and notify the reports issued on the day. Please utilize it according to the type of database and business content.

Notify Information Received via Other Chat Tools or Email

By using the APIs of chat tools and email software along with the Discord API, you can forward received messages and email content to Discord. This is useful when you want to quickly share information from customers using other communication methods or when you need to use multiple tools for information sharing due to work requirements.

With Yoom's AI operations, you can also translate received messages before notifying. This enables smooth information sharing in multilingual environments where interactions with overseas offices or customers are frequent. Additionally, if you replace translation with summary operations, you can grasp only the key points of messages, which can be useful when you want to focus on tasks that require more time.

Notify Web Form Information

With the use of the Discord API, it is possible to automatically notify information from web forms. Not only can you notify the contents of the form responses as they are, but you can also register the data in a database before notification, or notify the results of transcribing and summarizing audio data collected from the form. Additionally, it is recommended to create documents based on the form contents and send those documents via Discord as part of your workflow.

By changing the form settings, it can be utilized for various tasks such as handling inquiries, marketing, recruitment activities, and managing meeting minutes.

Notify Schedules and Tasks

You can automatically notify information about schedules registered in scheduling tools and tasks registered in project management tools using the Discord API. Managing schedules and tasks is essential no matter what kind of work you are doing. This automatic notification can be used not only for sharing information among team members but also as a reminder for yourself. By using schedule triggers, you can list and notify tasks not only at the time of registration but also on specified schedules such as daily or weekly.

Additionally, you can synchronize and automatically notify schedule-related information from sources other than dedicated tools. Below is a template for a flow that integrates with Zoom's API to notify meeting information every morning. This can be useful if you frequently conduct online business negotiations or internal meetings.

Notify Information from CRM and SFA

By integrating the CRM and SFA APIs with the Discord API, you can automatically notify information such as leads, tickets, and deals. The prompt sharing of registered information allows for smooth follow-up by sales, marketing, and customer support personnel. Additionally, as the information is automatically reflected, the risk of proceeding with subsequent processes based on incorrect information is reduced.

Sync the Content of Received Messages with Other Apps

Conversely to the integrations introduced so far, it is also possible to automatically sync the content of messages received in a Discord channel and the sender's information with other apps. You can register conversation history in a database, forward it to email software or chat tools for information sharing, or register it as a task in a project management tool to prevent overlooking messages. If the direction of information integration changes according to the business content, please refer to the following templates.

Summary

This time, we introduced what can be done with the Discord API, how to integrate it with other app APIs, and examples of its use. By integrating the Discord API with other app APIs, you can synchronize information from messages received on Discord with other apps, or send messages on Discord based on information from other apps. It can be linked not only with everyday tools like databases, chat tools, and email but also with specialized tools for various tasks. Please try customizing it to suit your duties and department.

e.koyama
Until now, I have experienced office work at specialized trading companies and in the EC industry. The work I was in charge of covered a wide range of tasks, such as sales office work, accounting, general affairs, human resources, and legal affairs. We worked to improve the efficiency of individual tasks, but I think the work could proceed more conveniently by using various support tools and Yoom... I would be happy if I could send out an introduction article on Yoom that makes use of my work experience and help everyone proceed smoothly with their work.
